My brother is the victim and they are trying to give him a different path all this horror. He can’t defend himself anymore, he can’t refute what he’s saying,” said Darling Arrieta, sister, in a past talk with EL TIEMPO.
“This person is cold, he does not feel distressed, he does not seem sorry for what he did and he is also inventing things. We are very believers and the only one who has the right to take our lives is God, not humans. He has to pay with prison what he did, but not with the death penalty,” he added.
The Police have until October 2023 to send the investigation reports to the Thai Prosecutor’s Office. Once they are analyzed, a trial will be summoned and the strategy of Sancho’s lawyers to prevent him from being sentenced to death will be definitively known.
The trial for the Colombian crime would take place in 2024, so Sancho will be in provisional prison during this time.
