Ronald Z. cruelly and by surprise stabbed Ruby, the girl with whom he had a secret relationship, at Christmas 2022. The courtship was clandestine because it had arisen when the young woman came to live in Spain and settled at home from his mother, who was then Ronald’s partner. While the three of them were under the same roof, they began the relationship, at the same time that the man also subjected his mother to abuse and threats. He ended up leaving the house, but managed to meet Ruby one last time, a fatal date in which he ended up stabbing the girl 10 times, without her having the slightest chance to defend herself or escape from her. The accused has just accepted a sentence of 18 years in prison after fully acknowledging the facts. Her mother found out about the relationship at the same time she was notified of the murder of her daughter.
The crime occurred after a critical moment, after a first conviction for threats against his ex-partner and mother of the deceased victim, which imposed a restraining order on both women and 10 months in prison, for which he did not enter prison. the jail. The criminal had even told them both: “I’m going to burn this house down and no one will come out of here.” That happened on December 22, 2022. Less than 24 hours after receiving that notification, Ronald ignored the sentence and contacted the daughter of her ex, with whom he had already started a relationship when he lived with her as her stepfather. He called her with the cell phone of a friend of hers.
The murderer met with the girl on Christmas Eve. They made a date in the Fuencarral district and then went for a walk through El Retiro, in Madrid. Then began the period that the experts called “honeymoon”, the phase in which the abuser wins back his victim, shows himself as someone docile and claims that he has changed. In this process, Ronald and Ruby met again on December 26 in the Delicias neighborhood. Then, he showed up with food, a letter in which he asked for forgiveness for all the harm he had done to her, and money. Ronald knew the girl he ended up killing since he was 14 years old, electronically. The first time they saw each other in person was in 2021, when she moved to Spain.
It was in the third encounter in which the man murdered his partner. So Ruby had already lowered all her defenses and met her boyfriend around ten in the morning. The young woman was wearing a black t-shirt and denim overalls. They were together for several hours until she finally, confident, went to Ronald’s home. They ate together and shared a moment as intimate as her cutting his hair. Right after, the man decided to end the girl’s life with stabs. Specifically 10 and in vital areas. The young woman had no chance to save herself. She lost a lot of blood in a matter of seconds.
The sentence condemns the accused to 18 years in prison for murder, because it has been proven that Ruby did not show signs of defense and was attacked by surprise. The court ruling recognizes the aggravating factor of kinship, but also the mitigating factor of mild psychological alteration because the convicted person has a borderline personality disorder recognized by the court’s specialists. The penalty of breach of sentence with an additional 10 months in prison is also added. And he must compensate Ruby’s mother, her ex-partner, with 220,000 euros.
