Overview
- In a TikTok posted on Dec. 4, Yoseline “YosStop” Hoffman marked four years since regaining her liberty and alleged she was kidnapped, extorted, and subjected to physical and psychological torture.
- Later the same day, Ainara Suárez released a TikTok rebuttal stating the events were a lawful arrest and that reparation of damages is a right afforded to victims, not extortion.
- Suárez said four men tied to her case were arrested, received conviction sentences, and paid her reparation, noting their outcomes drew little coverage because they were not public figures.
- Reporting on Hoffman's 2021 release notes she left Santa Martha Acatitla under agreements that included donations to feminist organizations and changes to her online content.
- The new exchange prompted criticism online of Hoffman's use of the term “kidnapping,” while outlets reported no new legal actions connected to the case.
