TSJ confirmed 18 years of police murderer

TSJ confirmed 18 years of police murderer

The Criminal Chamber of the Supreme Court of Justice left untouched the sentence of 18 years and 15 days in prison imposed on the official Pedro Emilio González Celis, who holds the rank of added supervisor assigned to the police of the José Tadeo Monagas municipality (Altagracia de Orituco), Guarico. This decision is reflected in ruling 535 of the aforementioned court, written by Judge Maikel Moreno and signed by his colleagues, Elsa Gómez and Carmen Castro.

The events occurred in the early morning of July 1, 2019 at the La Zerpera farm, located in the Coche sector, Altagracia de Orituco. Both González Celis and his colleague Raúl Antonio Solórzano were providing private security on that property. The story that González Celis presented before the Cicpc-Altagracia of Orituco is that they were attacked by armed individuals who took away their two Glock pistols. He also said that during that attack his partner Raúl Solórzano was murdered.

But with the development of the investigations, the Cicpc determined that the person who killed Solórzano was González Celis himself, allegedly linked to the Tren del Llano criminal structure, whose main base is in the Altagracia mountains of Orituco.

For this reason, on 8/19/19, prosecutor Jorge Luis Tesare requested to open a trial against González Celis for qualified intentional homicide and aggravated robbery.

That request for a trial was rejected by the 2nd Court of Control of the Criminal Judicial Circuit of Guárico, which gave him 30 days to present a new accusation against the police officer. Indeed, on October 21, 2019, prosecutor Tesare filed a new trial request eliminating the crime of aggravated robbery, adding a new one (simulation of a punishable act) and ratifying that of qualified intentional homicide committed for futile reasons.

The new accusation was accepted by the aforementioned court from where they ordered the trial, which began on September 20, 2021 and closed on March 23, 2022. On that date, the 2nd Trial Court of Guárico sentenced him to 18 years. and 15 days to police officer González Celis.

That sentence was confirmed on April 4, 2023 by Chamber 83 of the Guárico Court of Appeals, the instance before which public defender Alba Rocío Martínez had gone to seek to reverse the 18 years of prison imposed on the police officer.

A second attempt to annul the conviction was made by lawyer Yesnardo Francisco Rojas Sudani, public defender assigned to González Celis. This procedure was carried out before the Criminal Chamber of the TSJ through an appeal filed in that instance on July 26. But the magistrates detected that this appeal was filed outside the period of 15 days allowed by law and consequently they declared it inadmissible because it was out of time.

The hiding place

At the end of October and beginning of November, the security agencies have resumed the persecution of members of the Tren del Llano, whose leader, Oscar de Jesús Noguera Hernández (el Diente), is on the run.

During that search, two of his partners were killed in San Rafael de Laya (Guárico): Cecita and Negro Masacre.
