Albert López, sentenced to 20 years in prison for the so-called ‘Crime of the Urban Police’, has now acknowledged, within the framework of the individual reintegration treatment that he is undergoing in prison, that he committed the murder, which would make it easier for him to obtain prison permits. .
According to El Periódico and sources close to the case have confirmed to EFE, recognition of the facts is a key issue that prison treatment boards take into account when granting permits, so admitting the crime places López in a most advantageous situation to obtain prison benefits.
López, who was an urban guard in Barcelona, ??was sentenced in April 2020 to 20 years in prison for murdering, along with his partner Rosa Peral, her partner Pedro R., also an agent of the force, in a love triangle.
Neither Albert López nor Rosa Peral ever acknowledged the crime in court and, in fact, they blamed each other for having committed it, although the Barcelona Court ended up convicting them both of murder.
López, an inmate at the Quatre Camins prison in La Roca del Vallès (Barcelona), is in a position to soon access prison permits, which prisoners can obtain once a quarter of their sentence has been served, a decision that is in the hands of the prison treatment board.
The convicted person is following an individual reintegration treatment program in which, in addition to expressing recognition of the crime committed and his repentance, he has the possibility of accessing training courses, another of the elements that the treatment boards take into account when deciding. on the prison itinerary of inmates.
