The Supreme Court of Justice of the province of Buenos Aires revoked the acquittal of a man for the crime of his mother-in-law, a 56-year-old woman beaten to death in her home in the Buenos Aires district of Ituzaingó in March 2018, and ordered that the Court Court of Cassation issues a new ruling with a gender perspective, judicial sources reported. The sentence fell on Víctor Ezequiel Palmero (30), who on March 27, 2020 was acquitted with the benefit of the doubt by the Oral Criminal Court (TOC) 5 of Morón for the homicide of Mónica Beatriz Olañeta, a verdict confirmed a year later by Chamber I of the Court of Criminal Cassation. As a result, the deputy prosecutor before the Court of Criminal Cassation, María Laura Di Gregorio, filed a complaint before the Buenos Aires Court, after an extraordinary appeal of inapplicability of the law was rejected as inadmissible. Finally, in March of last year the highest court of the province of Buenos Aires granted said appeal and the Attorney General was consulted to issue a ruling regarding the presentation of prosecutor Di Gregorio. In a 22-page ruling, to which Télam had access, the Buenos Aires Supreme Court held that "the cassation court incurred arbitrariness when it refused to evaluate the evidentiary table from a gender perspective." "When evaluating as necessary criteria the verification of a relationship of previous violence between the victim and the perpetrator, or indicators that the victim is in a subordinate position, or has suffered some kind of physical, psychological, sexual, economic or other type of violence, At the same time that he ignored other proven data in the case, he restrictively interpreted the conventional regulations," said Judge Hilda Kogan in her opinion, which was supported by her peers Daniel Soria, Sergio Torres and Luis Genoud.
