Carlos Navarro, the former Big Brother contestant sentenced to 5 years and 8 months in jail for a crime of continued mistreatment of his ex-wife, Fayna Bethencourt, and the couple’s two children, runs out of avenues in his search to avoid the prison. El Yoyas, as he is known, decided not to go to prison at the end of last November while waiting for the Supreme Court to resolve his petition to have his sentence reviewed, but the Prosecutor’s Office, as revealed by El Mundo, has presented a letter in which he shows his opposition to the revision of this sentence of the famous.
Navarro’s lawyer filed a petition for review in the Supreme Court that is still being studied as a result of a new computer expert report on a hard drive from a computer that was in the couple’s home. Apparently, the letter talks about a file that was last saved in 2012, and that is part of a fictional work by Bethencourt published in 2016. It describes one of the episodes of abuse that the victim narrated in her 2018 complaint, but she then placed it in 2013.
Due to this dance of dates, the defense of El Yoyas maintains that the entire story on which his conviction is based is invented, since it coincides with the book by Bethencourt Cyanide and Chocolate. The Prosecutor’s Office has urged the high court to reject Carlos’ request since it considers that this expert opinion “is not strong enough to allow the admission of the appeal for review” since “the varied and clear evidence on which the sentence is based” prevails. of Carlos. For the Prosecutor’s Office, this “supposed new evidence, in no case distorts the existing evidence on multiple crimes.”
Navarro had to appear for his admission to prison on November 14 for a crime of habitual abuse, threats and injuries against Fayna Bethencourt. He was sentenced to five years and eight months in prison for sexist violence handed down in December 2020 by Criminal Court Number 5 of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, which became firm when ratified by the Provincial Court of Las Palmas. and the Supreme Court does not admit the appeal presented. After failing to appear at the Vilanova del Camí Peace Court, a search and arrest warrant was issued, but he decided to escape and not abide by the judicial decision.
This is the last bullet that El Yoyas has left to legally avoid prison before having to decide between continuing to flee from justice or voluntarily entering prison to serve the almost six years in prison to which he was sentenced for mistreatment. This search and capture order will be in force until February 3, 2027, the date on which the State Security Forces would take action to search for him and proceed to his immediate imprisonment.
Carlos Navarro and Fayna Bethencourt met in 2000 during the second edition of the Big Brother program. They have two minor children together, a 13-year-old girl and a 10-year-old boy. Navarro was expelled from the program for his violent behavior with Bethencourt, with whom he began a relationship at home in the barely 17 days that he lasted in the contest.
