The Investigative Court number 5 of Valladolid has released with precautionary measures for the investigated Óscar S.M., the only person investigated for the disappearance and death of the resident of Traspinedo, Esther López de la Rosa, as sources in the case have informed Europa Press. However, the judge has established the obligation to sign every Monday and the prohibition of leaving the country.
The decision of the main judge, Soledad Ortega, through the corresponding order, has occurred after the new statement was taken from the only one investigated for the disappearance and death of the young woman, for whom the two private accusations, on behalf of the sister and the parents of the victim, have requested his imprisonment and the Valladolid Prosecutor’s Office, carried out by its top person, Soledad Martín Nájera, the avoidable imprisonment on bail of 20,000 euros.
“Justice for Esther, murderer, liar, coward, narcissist…she was only 35 years old!” chanted those gathered, among whom was an aunt of the deceased, who also demanded that he be put in prison now. “‘The nougats, in jail!”, asked the victim’s aunt, to whom seconds later another woman who was also participating in the mobilization responded with “what nougats, give him poison!”
The new testimony of the now only one investigated, after the proceedings against the other two suspects, Ramón G. and Carlos Lucio G.D (‘Carolo’), were dismissed, occurs after the judge received the report from the Central Unit in mid-November. Civil Guard operation investigating the case.
Said report from the Central Operational Unit (UCO) and the Organic Unit of the Judicial Police of the Civil Guard of Valladolid supports the hypothesis of the authorship of the crime by Óscar S.M, the result of a “hot outburst” after a discussion of unknown origin.
The report reiterates that the cause of death was being run over by a car at medium or low speed when the victim was on his back, with the confluence of other factors such as alcohol intoxication, cocaine consumption and hypothermia. , and that the woman did not die instantly but could have survived if she had received palliative care, “which could have violated her right to personal care and palliative healthcare.”
“In short, Esther was left as a result of the attack without any possibility of defense, helpless at the mercy of her aggressor, unable to obtain help from third parties and without real capacity to resist,” notes the report in which she is linked to said attack and subsequent events. facts to the person who was driving her that night in his vehicle, a Volkswagen T-Roc, after both of them had spent the night of January 12 to 13, 2022 in the company of different friends in various bars and wineries in Traspinedo.
A final report prepared by the Traffic Accident Reconstruction Team (ERAT), received in the last few hours by the judge, makes a virtual simulation of the accident of Esther López on Second Street in the El Romeral Urbanization of Traspinedo after three o’clock. in the early morning of January 13, 2022, in the back of the home of the main suspect, Óscar S.M.
The ERAT, in this new 52-page document, confirms its previous expert report that it delivered to the court on June 27, 2022: that it is “completely compatible and feasible” that the Volkswagen T-Roc vehicle was traveling at a speed of 45 kilometers per hour when it ran over Esther López and that it reached an acceleration of two meters per second in each second when it reached that point on the street.
For accident reconstruction specialists, it is also “completely compatible and feasible” that the accident would have occurred on Second Street in the Parque Romeral Urbanization in Traspinedo, exactly when it runs at the back of the investigated person’s family chalet.
Among the latest developments in the case is also the fact that the instructor herself has written to the parties, the Prosecutor’s Office, the defense and the two private accusations, to obtain their opinion on whether it is appropriate to agree on a new extension of the investigation. .
The main judge has given them one day to argue what they deem appropriate before the last agreed extension expires in mid-January. Once the response is received, the investigating judge will decide.
It has also emerged that the legal representation of Esther López’s parents has filed a document with the judge in order to request that the case be processed by the jury law procedure.
If a request of identical tenor was already made in September to the investigator by the second of the accused persons in the case, representing the only sister of the deceased, a claim that was denied at the beginning of October, now the other accusing party who defends the interests of the victim’s parents returns to the charge with the aim of having the proceedings processed by the jury procedure when convinced that the facts constitute a crime of murder.
The first of the requests was rejected by Judge Soledad Ortega, who then justified her refusal on the fact that the result of the last investigative procedure and the final report had not been received, although such expert reports have been delivered in recent weeks to the headquarters. judicial, the last the expert report prepared by the Accident Reconstruction Team (ERAT) of the Civil Guard.
The deceased sister’s lawyer, who understands that the evidence obtained by the Armed Institute is “more than enough”, also asked the judge months ago to issue a prison order for Óscar S.M, the main suspect in the disappearance and death of Esther. López, although the instructor denied such request considering that from what has been done so far “there is not enough evidence to justify such a measure.”
