Either nothing is what it appears, or Daniel Sancho is having quite a bit of luck. They have elevated controversies in the second week of the trial. Again the perspective of Rodolfo Sancho, the statements of Darling Arrieta, the documentary in progress, the halo impact, and Daniel’s fan membership, the consequence of hybristophilia. Debates round a case that continues behind closed doorways, between whose cracks what we all know is sneaking in. Let’s keep away from subplots and get to the level.
All the ends appeared nicely tied to suppose that the story would finish in loss of life penalty. We had the suspicious buy of materials the day earlier than the crime, the presence of Daniel at the scene, the subsequent dismemberment of the physique and the alleged confession in the first assertion. Add, if this weren’t sufficient, his obvious emotional coldness and the dance of motivations: financial motive, crime of ardour, compromising movies, threats and extortion.
A leafy row of indications that’s turning out to be empty, as a result of has not supplied conclusive proof. The paradox has been created of having all the proof and at the identical time not having it. A puzzle.
The essential factor lies in the premeditation. To show it, it’s essential to hyperlink the buy of the materials with the alleged homicide, and for this two components are important: weapons and physique.
The weapons of crime
They stand out two knives. The first was discovered inside the backpack that Sancho had left in a lodge, hours after Arrieta’s loss of life. According to the report, this doesn’t include organic stays, due to this fact, it’s dominated out.
The second knife was the one which appeared, disappeared and reappeared in the room the place Arrieta died. This does include DNA stays, each of Sancho and the sufferer. Now, in response to what has been leaked to the press, it has not been potential to find out if this particular knife was amongst the materials bought by Sancho. Therefore, for the second, the weapons used they’d not show premeditation.
The sufferer t-shirt appeared torn. After analyzing the marks, it has not been potential to make clear whether or not they have been attributable to the knives bought the day earlier than. Other take a look at with out forcefulness.
The physique
It then stays to concentrate on Arrieta’s autopsy to determine how he died. The dance of evaluation has generated not one, however as much as 4 totally different autopsies. The most illuminating information got here from the testimony of the forensic skilled in cost of analyzing Arrieta’s cranium: as she testified at trial, His accidents are in step with a battle.. This may help the idea of self-defense, that’s, reckless murder. However, the battle doesn’t exempt from potential premeditation, it solely proves that each struggled, and we return to sq. one.
And how did Arrieta die? Nobody is aware of. The first evaluation indicated that they each fought. Daniel would have punched him, Arrieta would have fallen to the flooring hitting his head on the sink, after which Sancho would have dismembered him.
And right here the totally different variations: He may have died from a blow to the cranium, after being slit, or stabbed. The first two potentialities are not scientifically supported, no less than not sufficient: there is no such thing as a categorical proof to find out these two deaths. The third can’t be confirmed both as a result of the thorax doesn’t seem. Autopsies, due to this fact, are not conclusive. Did he imply to kill him or was it an accident? The crime scene doesn’t make clear it.
The protection is working to dismiss Sancho’s first assertion. They insist that, because of strain or confusion, Daniel He didn’t wish to tackle the homicidehowever solely the dismemberment.
The third week of the trial will start on Tuesday, first, with the testimony of the witnesses of the Prosecutor’s Office and accusation, then, with the testimony of Daniel and Rodolfo. Unless the thorax seems by magic, or until a brand new irrefutable autopsy emerges, premeditation wouldn’t appear to carry. The ends, which gave the impression to be nicely tied, have come free in this second week of the trial. If the loss of life can’t be decided, and if the weapon and the buy can’t be linked, all the pieces would appear to point that Daniel could possibly be saved. Although not from jail.
