This week the trial against Daniel Sancho for the alleged murder of Colombian surgeon Edwin Arrieta began. At the same time, his father, the actor Rodolfo Sancho, took an unexpected step that left everyone and everyone very surprised: leaving aside his usual discretion, he presented the first episode of a docuseries, with an interview included, in which he recounts first person how he has experienced all the controversy surrounding his son.

Rodolfo Sancho has unexpectedly become the protagonist of the documentary The Sancho Case, which premiered on HBO Max last Tuesday, April 9. Unpublished material in which the actor not only defends the innocence of his son and tells how he found out about the details of the crime; but also tells unpublished details of his son’s day-to-day life in the Thai prison of Koh Samui.

Some statements that are worth their weight in gold, and never better said, because the actor would have earned a substantial amount for his statements. Money that will serve not only to pay for round trips from Thailand to Spain, as well as for his expensive defense; but also to help Daniel Sancho improve his life inside the Thai prison in matters such as food or where to sleep.

The judicial process against Daniel Sancho promises to be complicated, so any precaution is insufficient and his family knows that they need resources to face the situation that awaits them in the coming years. For this reason, Rodolfo Sancho would have given in, leaving his usual discretion aside; and he would have negotiated to make statements and receive an economic benefit for his participation in the documentary.

“He did it for money. Rodolfo’s objective was to cover the financial need that a father has to try to save his son’s life,” said one of Daniel Sancho’s lawyers, hired by his father. According to the lawyer, the actor is facing many unforeseen expenses. .

In total, as confirmed in Aruser@s, the protagonist of La Corona parte would be getting between 120,000 and 150,000 euros for talking about his son in the documentary. The interest that the case has generated has allowed the actor to receive more than 100,000 euros for his words, and perhaps even that the same production company is taking care of his stay in Thailand.

Since his son was imprisoned, the actor has not worked again. His latest project was Zorro, for Prime Video, a series that has already suffered the consequences of the controversy surrounding the case. The series marked the actor’s return to the small screen, but the media was left wanting, as Sancho was present at the promotional events with one condition: not to grant interviews to prevent his personal situation from clouding the work of the entire team. equipment.
