After 13 days of searching, Debanhi Escobar’s body was found in a cistern at the Nueva Castilla Motel. In addition to the videos that captured the young woman alive inside the building, the prosecutor specializing in femicides in Nuevo León assured that new cameras are already being investigated that would show other angles of the building.
“We are in the investigation, because we had the discovery of other cameras, so we are verifying if in these cameras (…) there is any video-recorded record of that time to be able to determine if we can locate Debanhi in some other room of the hotel,” said Griselda Núñez. to Azucena Uresti.
According to the specialized prosecutor, there are more records apart from “Camera 1” and “Camera 2”, video surveillance devices where Debanhi could be seen entering the Nueva Castilla Motel through the vehicular access and later walking near the restaurant in the tank area, garden and pool.
“There are cameras throughout the building and we are conducting a diligent investigation of each one of them,” Griselda mentioned in an interview for Grupo Formula.
It should be noted that during the search for Debanhi Escobar alive, employees and administrators of the Nueva Castilla Motel assured the authorities that the surveillance devices were only for monitoring and did not capture video; however, recordings have already been released.
According to the specialist, the analysis of the new videos would also help review other aspects of the Debanhi case, that is, the presence of the officials who participated in the search operation for the 18-year-old girl inside from the motel. One of the inconsistencies that emerged during the investigation was that the cisterns had already been checked without noticing a fetid aroma.
“Thirteen days here! How many times have you been here? How many times!” Mario Escobar, the young woman’s father, claimed at the time. In this regard, Griselda Nuñez explained the following:
“Yes, we are verifying that in the opinions and the expertise, verifying whether or not there is the presence of only her, as she referred, also of various public servants who participated in her search.”
Similarly, the specialist assured that the angle of vision of the new cameras found is short but “the necessary steps and skills are being carried out to establish the angles and review each of the cameras that allow us to be able to do a thorough tracking of all those 13 days, to see if we can observe it somewhere else.”
On the other hand, Mario Escobar told local media that he will not release the results of his daughter’s autopsy until his lawyers tell him it is pertinent.
“As I had commented on the instructions of my lawyers, they are checking it, when they determine it and present it, now before the cameras,” explained the young woman’s father. This decision would have been taken so as not to affect or hinder the due process of the case.
Similarly, the head of the Office of the Prosecutor for Femicides and Crimes against Women clarified that there is no “second private autopsy”, only the intervention of an anthropologist provided by the Federation was carried out.
Similarly, the Attorney General of Nuevo León, Gustavo Adolfo Guerrero Nuñez, explained that press conferences will be held on Mondays on the progress of the Debanhi case. The next one will take place on May 2.
At the press conference on April 27, it was said that Debanhi runs into the Nueva Castilla Motel, these images were captured by “Camera 2″ which focuses on the motel’s vehicular entrance pen.
