In the case of Aralí Vivas, the girl murdered in the province of Córdoba, the charges against the accused have worsened, where both the mother, the stepfather, and the friend of the latter have now been charged with the presumed homicide. Prosecutors state that in the event of a conviction, the penalty would correspond to life imprisonment and have announced the start of investigations through video conferencing.
Prosecutor Oscar Gieco decided to increase the charge against the first two arrested for the crime of the 8-year-old girl from Brinkmann, which was attempted to be concealed by an intentional fire at the home where she lived. Local media have mentioned that Matías Ezequiel Simeone, the victim's stepfather, and his friend, Cristian Hernán Varela, initially charged with simple homicide, are considered presumed co-authors of the crime of qualified homicide by the link.
Additionally, Rocío Milagros Rauch, Aralí's mother, is detained and charged as a necessary participant in qualified homicide by the link, for commission by omission. The situation complicates for the accused as the investigation progresses, and more details are expected to emerge during the upcoming stages of the judicial process.
