Overview
- In Cuenca, prosecutors seek up to 40 years for C.B.R. over the 2022 killing of his ex-partner and the stabbing of her companion, plus civil compensation exceeding €500,000.
- Prosecutors argue he copied keys, breached a restraining order, and delivered a final deliberate stab while the victim lay defenseless, which they say proves alevosía and supports murder.
- The defense acknowledges the acts but contests treachery, urging jurors to consider the defendant’s mental state and alleged drug use that day.
- In Palma, a jury is hearing a case over a 32-year-old intruder fatally stabbed during an attempted marijuana theft in Inca, with the victim’s family seeking 25 years for murder and the prosecutor 15 for homicide.
- The prosecutor also asks for prison terms for three alleged accomplices in the attempted theft, and the Guardia Civil arrested the suspect and the three men the night of the incident.
