Authorities released the teacher Jeisy Berenice Espinal, wife of Professor John Kelly Martínez, the main person involved in the death of the adolescent Esmeralda Richiez.
The information was confirmed to Caribbean by the Public Ministry, an entity that also announced the release of Frank Eligio Paniagua Pillier. The latter was pointed out for being the person who bought the Honda Accord model car, where Martínez was transported together with the teenager who died today, accompanied by other minors and her nephew Rubiel Morillo.
The Public Ministry indicated that “for the moment” it will not request a measure of coercion against Jeisy Berenice Espinal or Frank Eligio Paniagua Pillier.
Capture
Jeisy Berenice Espinal was arrested last night after being charged as an accessory to murder for allegedly having sold the Honda Accord model car to Frank Eligio Paniagua Pillier, who was also placed under arrest.
The lawyer Modesto Castillo, representative of Professor Jhon Kelly Martínez, had insisted that the defendant’s partner had no involvement in the case, since the car is not in her name, but in the educator’s name.
In the case of the adolescent Esmeralda Richiez, whose investigation is under the charge of the prosecutor Olga Diná Llaverías, only Professor John Kelly Martínez is kept in prison, who was sentenced to a year in preventive detention, as a measure of coercion.
Meanwhile, his cousin Rubiel Morrillo, implicated for complicity in the facts, received a measure of coercion, consisting of periodic presentation.
