The schedule of statements for the crime of Samuel Luizthe nurse who was lynched in the middle of the street in July 2021, has important interventions in store for the coming weeks. For now, it is expected that this week the pedestrians who crossed paths with the group of attackers that morning will finish parading before the citizen court, just at the end of the six minutes that the beating lasted. They were the first people to help Samuel when they left him lying on the ground and the mob escaped running in different directions to facilitate their escape. These citizens offered the first attention to the young man and, as they explained during the instruction phase, they called the health workers and accompanied a Samuel already inert due to the blows. They will explain that first a basic ambulance arrived and a few minutes later another medicalized one, that the victim entered the hospital in La Coruña with a thread of life and that It was impossible to repair head injuries that, according to the forensic report, were incompatible with life.
The intervention in the plenary session of other people who, from a distance, could witness the attack, is also expected. They are some acquaintances or friends of the gang who know everyone who sits on the bench and whose memories may help clarify the intervention of each one, the main challenge for the popular juries. The problem in this case, according to the statements in the investigation phase to which ABC had access, is that some of them had consumed alcohol that night -the first opening of nightlife after the pandemic- so its explanations could be distorted.
But the main enigma of what will happen this week in the Provincial Court of La Coruña has two key protagonists in the case: the two minors who confessed to the crime. Incriminated from minute one for their direct participation in the crimeinvestigators accused them of the death and the case went to court. The minors were a few months away from reaching the age of majority and the process was delayed, which made it easier for the parties to reach an agreement to avoid the trial. Through this pact, the young people admitted to the crime and were sentenced to three and a half years of confinement for the crime of murder. The nature of the sentence prevents the details of his confession from being known, but his role in the death plans the trial from the first day.
His name has resonated in the courtroom at the same level as that of the five accusedand some of them have even pointed them out directly and without hot cloths. Catherine Silva said of one of them that he carried a weapon in his hand – the famous ‘kubotán’ – and He hit Samuel on the temple with it. Míguez also confirmed this versionwhich came to him through Kaio. Precisely, Kaio Amaral’s girlfriend, also present that morning, will testify this week to provide her version of the beating, together with other friends who accompanied the group in the Andén pub’s reserved room and whose names came up in the subsequent conversations that the attackers had. in networks after the lynching. Many eyes looking in the same direction, which will now speak.
