Overview
- Judge Augusto José Paz Almonacid ordered the dismissal for Sebastián Sosa, Braian Cufré, Abiel Osorio and José Ignacio Florentín, ruling the alleged conduct did not constitute a crime.
- The judge rejected the complainant’s bid to nullify ECIF analyses of phones from people close to her, upholding those pericias as admissible.
- Prosecutors took a split stance in hearings, backing dismissal only for Sosa, leaving the broader outcome to the court.
- The complainant’s legal team said it will appeal, arguing the phone work was irregular and that other medical and digital evidence warranted review at trial.
- The decision is a first‑instance procedural dismissal that can be reviewed by higher courts, with the judge citing phone records and a psychological report to support a finding of consent.
