The case of the teenager Mariana González was known through letters that reflect the conditions in which the detainees are found
The attorney general, Tarek William Saab, reported on the night of Wednesday, December 4, that the teenager identified as MVG – the name of Mariana González – was released, after requesting a review of the measure that left her in prison.
through account instagram of the Public Ministry, Saab indicated that the Prosecutor’s Office, together with a forensic medical team, went to the young woman’s detention site to conduct a medical evaluation. Afterwards, the Public Ministry asked the court to review the case again.
The case presented by the Prosecutor’s Office is that of the teenager Mariana González, whose testimony was known in recent days through a letter sent to her parents. The 16-year-old girl wrote a letter to her mother in which she revealed the conditions in which she was held and stated that she felt “without strength” and “without the desire to live.”
In the letter, published by the DDHH Vente Venezuela account, González said that he missed his mother very much and that he had depression.

«Four months without being with you, without attending my studies, without my life. They took everything from me and, the truth is, I don’t deserve this. I feel like every day everything is getting more and more complicated for me, I don’t want to spend Christmas without my family. Every night I ask God to give me strength and help me, I feel like I can’t take it anymore and that I am left without strength,” the letter reads.
«I don’t want to make you feel bad, but if I can’t be with you, I don’t want to be with anyone. I prefer to die. “Sometimes I want to hurt myself (…) I want to kill myself rather than continue suffering,” he continued.
«If I can’t be with you, I don’t want to be with anyone else. I prefer to die (…) Sometimes I want to hurt myself. “I can’t take it anymore.”
