Horacio García Belsunce testified during a new day of the trial for the crime of his sister María Marta García Belsunce. There, before the prosecutor’s office, made up of Patricio Ferrari, Andrés Quintana and Federico González, he said he is “convinced” that Nicolás Pachelo was the one who murdered his sister in their home in the Carmel de Pilar country on October 27, 2002. Why didn’t they follow the Pachelo trail. That unfortunate prosecutor had eaten the issue of the accident, he realizes,” said the brother of the sociologist, while noting that the prosecutor Diego Molina Pico oriented the investigation towards the family “before the possibility of losing his career”, when he realized his mistake. ” Molina Pico is the cover-up of this murder,” he said. “I always maintained that the Court felt cornered with that line that endorsed our responsibility and did not dare to do real justice,” he said in relation to the conviction of widower Carlos Carrascosa.
Given this, Horacio García Belsunce also addressed the dynamics of the media. “The press made a hellish deal with crime. It gave rating that the responsibility had the family and not Pachelo, “he said, indicating that the Court felt pressured by it.
On the other hand, He recalled Pachelo’s own lawyer, Roberto Ribas, who had acknowledged that his defendant was a “brave and complicated guy” and that “he could have emptied the entire charger because he was capable.” The first time she heard the neighbor’s name was because Maria Marta was sure that he had kidnapped her dog Tom.
Returning to Molina Pico, García Belsunce recalled the day – a month after the crime – he was told that his sister had been murdered, which he went to tell the prosecutor. “He said, ‘What do we do now?’ and I said, ‘How do we do?’ We ate an accident and Maria Marta has five shots,” he said. In this third trial, the prosecution follows the hypothesis that María Marta found Pachelo robbing her home. Faced with this, he accuses him as the author of the crime, along with the former guards of the private neighborhood, José Ortiz and Norberto Glennondos, indicated as coatores.
