Ten years after the attack in La Boca, the Supreme Court has confirmed the 16-year prison sentence for the police officer who shot Lucas Cabello. It is expected that the officer will be arrested imminently. He has been at liberty all this time, despite the demands of Lucas and his family. On November 9, 2015, Lucas Cabello went to the bakery on the corner of his house. Upon returning, he crossed paths with an officer from the former Metropolitan Police who was on guard at the building entrance. The officer drew his service weapon and shot Lucas at point-blank range three times. The agent's brutal act caused life-threatening injuries. Nearby was Lucas's two-year-old daughter, waiting for the milanesa sandwich her father was bringing her. The firm sentence against Ayala is the result of the relentless struggle of Lucas, his mother Carolina, and his entire family, with great support from the organizations of La Boca that mobilized time and again to move the case forward. As Lucas himself says: 'I beat death, I am the son of all those mothers who lost their sons, and I will continue to fight for all those guys'. Today, ten years later, Lucas remains in a wheelchair.
