[cheering, applause]

00:00:44,200 --> 00:00:45,760
- [door opening]
- [Rosario] Alfonso...

8
00:00:45,760 --> 00:00:48,760
[Alfonso] Go to Italy
and say that pasta isn't Italian.

9
00:00:48,760 --> 00:00:51,680
- On the menu it says...
- Don't you remember our trip to Sofía?

10
00:00:51,680 --> 00:00:53,960
- Uh, you're so annoying, Alfonso!
- I'm just saying.

11
00:00:53,960 --> 00:00:56,760
- It says "Greek recipe."
- [Alfonso] Well, I mean...

12
00:00:56,760 --> 00:00:57,880
[Asunta] Good night.

13
00:00:57,880 --> 00:01:00,000
- [Alfonso] It's not bedtime.
- [Rosario] What you mean?

14
00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:02,800
[Alfonso] Take a shower, you're not
going to bed all sweaty like that.

15
00:01:02,800 --> 00:01:04,120
- [Asunta yawns]
- [Alfonso] Hey!

16
00:01:04,120 --> 00:01:05,720
- Can't I shower in the morning?
- Hurry.

17
00:01:05,720 --> 00:01:07,600
- Before I forget. Come here.
- [Rosario] Asunta...

18
00:01:07,600 --> 00:01:09,040
We didn't take a photo all night.

19
00:01:09,040 --> 00:01:11,640
Charo, Charo. Let's use
your phone, mine's ancient.

20
00:01:11,640 --> 00:01:14,200
- We need a picture to remember tonight.
- But I look horrible now.

21
00:01:14,200 --> 00:01:16,960
[Alfonso] Your big night.
So we remember...

22
00:01:16,960 --> 00:01:18,800
- how great you were.
- [groans] I'm so tired.

23
00:01:18,800 --> 00:01:20,800
- [Rosario] Just one minute...
- [Alfonso] I got it.

24
00:01:20,800 --> 00:01:22,400
- [pretend snoring]
- [Alfonso] Sweetie...

25
00:01:22,400 --> 00:01:24,720
don't say you look horrible,
you look beautiful.

26
00:01:24,720 --> 00:01:26,160
- Look up here.
- [Rosario] Look.

27
00:01:26,160 --> 00:01:27,560
- [Alfonso] Hey.
- [shutter clicking]

28
00:01:27,560 --> 00:01:31,320
- [Rosario] Adorable. Asunta, please stop!
- [Alfonso] Asunta, sit up, okay.

29
00:01:31,320 --> 00:01:33,600
Just one. Just one, come on!

30
00:01:33,600 --> 00:01:36,680
- [Rosario] What's with this face? Please.
- [Alfonso] She's being a clown.

31
00:01:36,680 --> 00:01:38,160
- [shutter clicking]
- [Asunta mocking]

32
00:01:38,160 --> 00:01:40,560
- [Rosario] Don't get fresh.
- [Alfonso] She's gonna be a brat.

33
00:01:40,560 --> 00:01:42,880
You ask for one photo
and look how she starts behaving.

34
00:01:42,880 --> 00:01:44,240
[Rosario] Asunta, please.

35
00:01:45,360 --> 00:01:47,720
- [groans] Let me go to bed.
- [Alfonso groans mockingly]

36
00:01:47,720 --> 00:01:50,160
- [Rosario] Are you that tired? Seriously?
- I feel exhausted.

37
00:01:50,160 --> 00:01:51,200
[Asunta] Can I go now?

38
00:01:51,200 --> 00:01:52,880
- One more minute, Asunta.
- One more.

00:01:53,600 --> 00:01:56,760
[ominous music playing]

40
00:01:56,760 --> 00:01:59,040
THE ASUNTA CASE

41
00:01:59,040 --> 00:02:02,000
[Garrido] Well, before we start,
I'd like to go on the record as saying,

42
00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:04,680
that we think it's very
important to acknowledge

43
00:02:05,280 --> 00:02:09,480
that, to our knowledge, several interviews
have taken place with you, Your Honor,

44
00:02:09,480 --> 00:02:10,960
that we weren't privy to.

45
00:02:11,560 --> 00:02:14,560
This includes the one
with the here present Laura Prieto

46
00:02:14,560 --> 00:02:16,560
and her mother, Ms. Iglesias.

47
00:02:16,560 --> 00:02:18,720
[Malvar] We followed standard procedures.

48
00:02:18,720 --> 00:02:22,680
We believe that "standard procedures"
adhere to the Criminal Procedure act,

49
00:02:22,680 --> 00:02:23,920
if I'm not mistaken.

50
00:02:23,920 --> 00:02:28,600
And the interviews that have happened
in your office aren't part of what is, um,

51
00:02:28,600 --> 00:02:31,440
uh, considered, um, how should I say it...

52
00:02:31,440 --> 00:02:34,760
It was not appropriate
pre-trial diligence in this case.

53
00:02:34,760 --> 00:02:36,320
Well, if you weren't informed sooner,

54
00:02:36,320 --> 00:02:39,480
it's only because there was no reason
for the lawyers to be there.

55
00:02:39,480 --> 00:02:41,680
Why meet these people
in the first place, counselor?

56
00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:45,120
Well, frankly, I don't see any reason for
the investigating judge to do so either.

57
00:02:45,120 --> 00:02:46,880
If there was some record
of said interview,

58
00:02:46,880 --> 00:02:49,560
a written record
of what transpired in your office,

59
00:02:49,560 --> 00:02:51,800
- or a recording of the interview...
- But you're here now,

60
00:02:51,800 --> 00:02:53,080
or will you argue that as well?

61
00:02:53,080 --> 00:02:56,000
Of course I am. This will all be done
with transparency and on the record,

62
00:02:56,000 --> 00:02:58,880
but this morning I discovered
this witness's secret meeting,

63
00:02:58,880 --> 00:03:01,640
and my clients' right to a defense
has been violated.

64
00:03:01,640 --> 00:03:03,720
The real problem, Your Honor,

65
00:03:03,720 --> 00:03:06,760
isn't just that this has happened
numerous times in this case,

66
00:03:06,760 --> 00:03:09,760
but that we only heard about them
by chance, through the press!

67
00:03:09,760 --> 00:03:11,640
- Once again, through the press!
- [Malvar] Wait.

68
00:03:11,640 --> 00:03:14,880
Hold on, I have to say that at this point,
it's, honestly, beyond unacceptable.

69
00:03:14,880 --> 00:03:17,240
Ms. Garrido, may I ask
if that's an accusation?

70
00:03:17,240 --> 00:03:18,480
No. Nobody said that.

71
00:03:18,480 --> 00:03:21,320
- If you think that about yourself...
- I just misinterpreted your words.

72
00:03:21,320 --> 00:03:24,560
[Garrido] Well, then, I have to ask,
please stop misinterpreting what I say.

73
00:03:24,560 --> 00:03:28,120
The only thing I've said is that I've
always respected Your Honor's decisions.

74
00:03:28,120 --> 00:03:32,200
And if I had to oppose them,
I did so legally and appropriately.

75
00:03:32,200 --> 00:03:33,440
I never went to the press.

76
00:03:33,440 --> 00:03:36,840
Any official comment I've made
was done so during these proceedings.

77
00:03:36,840 --> 00:03:39,080
My thoughts on the case
have stayed within these walls,

78
00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:41,000
and everything I've said here
is on the record.

79
00:03:41,000 --> 00:03:43,040
I see, I see, I see, Ma'am, I see.

80
00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:44,720
- [clicks pen]
- [Malvar] Anything else?

81
00:03:44,720 --> 00:03:45,760
No, Your Honor.

82
00:03:46,680 --> 00:03:47,720
[Malvar] May we start?

83
00:03:48,320 --> 00:03:49,560
We may.

84
00:03:50,600 --> 00:03:52,800
Good afternoon, Laura. Apologies.

85
00:03:53,680 --> 00:03:54,680
Um...

86
00:03:54,680 --> 00:03:58,080
I suppose, after what you just heard,
you already know why you're here, right?

87
00:03:59,040 --> 00:04:00,400
[Malvar] Hm? Okay.

88
00:04:00,960 --> 00:04:02,640
The girl says she came from here.

89
00:04:02,640 --> 00:04:05,400
A sporting goods store
on General Pardiñas Street.

90
00:04:05,400 --> 00:04:08,400
Her testimony puts
Alfonso and Asunta at this crosswalk.

91
00:04:08,400 --> 00:04:09,680
Why would they be there?

92
00:04:09,680 --> 00:04:12,280
Maybe walking to the park,
but she went this way.

93
00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:14,560
She has to be on one of these cameras.

94
00:04:14,560 --> 00:04:17,920
If they went over here, the only camera
we have is at Sabadell Bank.

95
00:04:17,920 --> 00:04:18,840
Pull it up!

96
00:04:18,840 --> 00:04:20,920
[tense music playing]

97
00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:28,840
[Molina] That's Rosario heading
to the garage before picking up the girl.

98
00:04:28,840 --> 00:04:30,000
[Ríos] Fast forward.

99
00:04:33,560 --> 00:04:35,840
- If it was here, they didn't catch 'em.
- Stop there.

100
00:04:35,840 --> 00:04:38,240
- [Molina] Why?
- C'mon! Do I have to pay you to watch it?

101
00:04:38,240 --> 00:04:39,240
Play it.

102
00:04:42,840 --> 00:04:44,640
[Ríos] Stop. Stop there. Back it up.

103
00:04:47,160 --> 00:04:48,160
[keyboard clicks]

104
00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:53,320
[ominous music playing]

105
00:04:53,920 --> 00:04:55,320
[Ríos] This was 6:24 p.m.

106
00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:02,840
Rios. What the hell?

107
00:05:02,840 --> 00:05:04,400
- What?
- You didn't even call.

108
00:05:04,400 --> 00:05:05,320
- Call?
- Yeah.

109
00:05:05,320 --> 00:05:06,680
This morning was crazy.

110
00:05:06,680 --> 00:05:10,120
My head's going to explode,
so you better have good news, all right.

111
00:05:10,120 --> 00:05:13,600
- [Cristina] Pfff...
- And it's your fault you're late.

112
00:05:14,320 --> 00:05:15,240
[Ríos] That's her.

113
00:05:16,200 --> 00:05:17,800
That's Laura Prieto.

114
00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:23,240
The witness who claims she saw Alfonso
and the girl walking on September 21st.

115
00:05:23,240 --> 00:05:27,760
As you see, she's with her boyfriend
and holding the bag from the sports shop.

116
00:05:27,760 --> 00:05:31,880
Which only adds to the credibility
of her testimony and her mother's.

117
00:05:31,880 --> 00:05:34,200
She saw Four eyes and Asunta
on the day she died.

118
00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:36,280
- [Cristina] Yes.
- [Ríos] Yeah.

119
00:05:36,280 --> 00:05:37,520
It was that day.

120
00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:42,400
But we compared the timestamps
of the recordings to the other cameras

121
00:05:42,400 --> 00:05:44,560
and we might have a problem. Look.

122
00:05:45,200 --> 00:05:48,800
This camera is a 30-second
walking distance from the crosswalk

123
00:05:48,800 --> 00:05:51,880
where Laura Prieto saw
Alfonso Basterra with Asunta.

124
00:05:51,880 --> 00:05:54,560
- The time is 6:24 p.m.
- Mhm. [clears throat]

125
00:05:55,200 --> 00:05:57,960
- [Cristina] And this camera.
- [Ríos] 6:21 p.m.

126
00:05:57,960 --> 00:06:00,880
La Galuresa, where Rosario
passed by with the girl.

127
00:06:00,880 --> 00:06:02,960
- Just three minutes earlier.
- [pill fizzing in water]

128
00:06:02,960 --> 00:06:06,600
[Cristina] Your Honor, it's a
five-minute drive between these points.

129
00:06:07,160 --> 00:06:09,000
If the defense wants to use this camera...

130
00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:11,280
[Pedro] They could say
there's no way Laura could've seen

131
00:06:11,280 --> 00:06:13,400
Alfonso and Asunta walking together.

132
00:06:13,400 --> 00:06:16,000
- [Ríos] And then we'd have a problem.
- No!

133
00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:19,040
I believe we'd have
a timeframe open to interpretation.

134
00:06:19,040 --> 00:06:21,680
[Malvar] What happened
between X and Y. Right?

135
00:06:22,760 --> 00:06:25,040
This recording is part
of the investigation.

136
00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:26,480
If they find it,

137
00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:30,000
and they think they can
make use of it, that's their right.

138
00:06:30,640 --> 00:06:31,600
If they find it.

139
00:06:32,280 --> 00:06:34,000
[Malvar] Hm? [clears throat]

140
00:06:38,360 --> 00:06:40,840
[Pedro] Luis, if I can't prove

141
00:06:40,840 --> 00:06:43,480
that Alfonso was
involved as well, I'm screwed.

142
00:06:44,480 --> 00:06:46,160
The whole case could fall apart.

143
00:06:46,880 --> 00:06:48,800
How could Rosario do this on her own?

144
00:06:49,560 --> 00:06:51,480
There's no way
she could've lifted the body

145
00:06:51,480 --> 00:06:53,560
from the upstairs bedroom to the car.

146
00:06:53,560 --> 00:06:56,000
Don't miss the forest
through the trees, Pedro.

147
00:06:57,200 --> 00:07:00,640
Those cameras are only one part
of what we have on him, they won't matter.

148
00:07:01,200 --> 00:07:05,160
Remember that she stayed at his place
when she had those dizzy spells in class.

149
00:07:05,920 --> 00:07:07,120
You heard that girl.

150
00:07:08,360 --> 00:07:10,280
A jury will take her word,
don't you worry.

151
00:07:10,280 --> 00:07:12,480
Okay. You might be sure.

152
00:07:13,400 --> 00:07:15,720
But it's me who's arguing
all of this at trial.

153
00:07:16,960 --> 00:07:20,480
Tell me who you'd trust?
That young girl, or, or Alfonso Basterra?

154
00:07:21,360 --> 00:07:22,200
Huh?

155
00:07:22,880 --> 00:07:23,760
[Pedro] Luis...

156
00:07:24,560 --> 00:07:25,400
[car door unlocks]

157
00:07:27,960 --> 00:07:30,720
Remember, not everyone knows
what we know about him.

158
00:07:34,320 --> 00:07:35,200
[groans]

159
00:07:40,200 --> 00:07:43,200

[Malvar tuts, sighs]

163
00:08:03,880 --> 00:08:04,760
Pop.

164
00:08:06,800 --> 00:08:08,000
Why aren't you asleep?

165
00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:12,080
The Arteixo leaves at 2:00 a.m.
And the captain waits for no one.

166
00:08:12,080 --> 00:08:13,280
[Malvar] Right, right.

167
00:08:13,920 --> 00:08:18,520
The Arteixo is leaving at 2:00 a.m.
And the captain waits for no one, son.

168
00:08:18,520 --> 00:08:21,040
- You have no idea.
- [line ringing]

169
00:08:21,760 --> 00:08:24,800
Yeah, I know it's a bit late.
Apologies. Check your email, please.

170
00:08:25,320 --> 00:08:27,680
- [Eloy] You better wise up, son!
- Hey, pop. Pop, please. I'm--

171
00:08:27,680 --> 00:08:29,840
[Eloy] You never listen to me,
one day you'll learn.

172
00:08:30,400 --> 00:08:31,840
Mr. lone wolf.

173
00:08:31,840 --> 00:08:34,400
I thought you needed help
with your book about the case?

174
00:08:34,400 --> 00:08:35,880
[Eloy] He waits for no one.

175
00:08:36,480 --> 00:08:38,040
Let's meet for coffee tomorrow morning.

176
00:08:38,040 --> 00:08:39,400
[Eloy] It's like I don't exist...

177
00:08:39,400 --> 00:08:41,960
It's true. Same old crap.

178
00:08:44,920 --> 00:08:47,400
- Hurry. The Arteixo leaves at 2:00.
- Dad.

179
00:08:47,400 --> 00:08:50,040
- Dad...
- And the captain waits for no one, son.

180
00:08:50,040 --> 00:08:53,000
Yes, yes. Don't worry.
We won't miss the ship.

181
00:08:53,000 --> 00:08:54,920
- Get up. Time for bed.
- [Eloy groans]

182
00:08:54,920 --> 00:08:58,720
- You'll see. Huh? He waits for no one.
- No one. You're right.

183
00:08:58,720 --> 00:08:59,920
[Eloy chuckles softly]

184
00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:04,400
[birds chirping]

185
00:09:04,400 --> 00:09:05,400
Hmph.

186
00:09:06,640 --> 00:09:09,480
Getting up early must be hard
for you artists, huh?

187
00:09:09,480 --> 00:09:12,400
[woman] Apologies. We didn't wrap
things up until late last night.

188
00:09:12,400 --> 00:09:14,080
I had to bite my tongue on air.

189
00:09:14,640 --> 00:09:15,840
That was your choice.

190
00:09:15,840 --> 00:09:18,000
[woman] Where did those photos come from?

191
00:09:19,560 --> 00:09:21,440
Her parents had them on their phones.

192
00:09:22,200 --> 00:09:24,120
Guess what forensics said about them?

193
00:09:25,040 --> 00:09:27,160
"That poor girl is completely sedated."

194
00:09:27,840 --> 00:09:30,320
[woman] Why would parents
want to drug their child?

195
00:09:30,800 --> 00:09:33,280
When we initially did a sweep
through Alfonso's room,

196
00:09:33,280 --> 00:09:35,720
the place was a mess
and some shorts were next to his bed.

197
00:09:35,720 --> 00:09:37,640
[woman] You should see
my house some nights.

198
00:09:38,520 --> 00:09:41,040
Mhm. Using the black light from forensics,

199
00:09:42,040 --> 00:09:43,680
some stains appeared.

200
00:09:43,680 --> 00:09:47,640
The world is a lonely place.
Those shorts belong to him, right?

201
00:09:47,640 --> 00:09:50,320
What about the girl's leggings
draped across his bedside table,

202
00:09:50,320 --> 00:09:51,520
were they his as well?

203
00:09:52,320 --> 00:09:56,240
Not to mention the fluorescent dots
that were splattered on the bedroom walls.

204
00:10:00,480 --> 00:10:03,400
You're aware that if I write this,
he'll be crucified.

205
00:10:06,560 --> 00:10:10,200
To be honest in your writing, Paula,
you need to know about the investigation.

206
00:10:11,920 --> 00:10:14,200
You need to hear it
from those who were there.

207
00:10:17,440 --> 00:10:19,320
[ominous music playing]

208

have been found.</i>

she's wearing her ballet clothes.</i>

210
00:10:26,200 --> 00:10:29,080
<i>With tights, a top,
wearing make-up, like an adult.</i>

211
00:10:30,200 --> 00:10:33,920
<i>Some people say her poses
are a bit sexy or erotic.</i>

212
00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:37,160
<i>Not appropriate for her age.</i>

213
00:10:38,240 --> 00:10:40,400
<i>You are watching the original report.</i>

214
00:10:40,920 --> 00:10:43,080

219
00:11:04,200 --> 00:11:07,720
[Rosario] <i>They're saying we're guilty
before they've even set the trial date.</i>

220
00:11:07,720 --> 00:11:10,080
<i>Did you hear what they say
about the photographs?</i>

221
00:11:10,080 --> 00:11:12,160
[Juanjo] They're trying
to draw a wedge between you.

222
00:11:12,160 --> 00:11:13,840
To turn you against each other.

223
00:11:15,040 --> 00:11:17,400
Those photos are just mere speculation.

224
00:11:17,960 --> 00:11:20,640
There's not a judge alive
that would be swayed by them,

225
00:11:20,640 --> 00:11:22,240
much less admit those as evidence.

226
00:11:22,240 --> 00:11:25,040
[Rosario] <i>A judge won't,
but what about a jury of my peers?</i>

227
00:11:25,040 --> 00:11:29,120
[Juanjo] Don't worry, we're going
to prove your innocence at trial, Rosario.

228
00:11:29,120 --> 00:11:33,200
We'll refute everything
they present against you. Hm?

229
00:11:33,200 --> 00:11:34,920
<i>It's so unfair, Juanjo.</i>

230
00:11:35,600 --> 00:11:37,680
<i>It's unfair, I need to get out of here.</i>

231
00:11:38,280 --> 00:11:40,560
- <i>And soon.</i>
- We're asking for release on probation,

232
00:11:40,560 --> 00:11:41,760
and we're going to get it.

233
00:11:42,400 --> 00:11:44,040
Until then, be patient.

234
00:11:45,240 --> 00:11:46,960
For Malvar, every day you spend in here

235
00:11:46,960 --> 00:11:49,280
makes you appear
more guilty to the public.

236
00:11:50,040 --> 00:11:51,800
He'll drag it out as long as possible.

237
00:11:52,840 --> 00:11:55,680
<i>No more, please, Juanjo. I won't make it.</i>

238
00:11:56,800 --> 00:12:00,080
<i>I want to die. I'm not going to make it.</i>

239
00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:03,920
[Juanjo] There's no reason why they
won't approve your probation before trial.

240
00:12:04,440 --> 00:12:07,760
After all, the evidence they have
is speculative at best.

241
00:12:08,480 --> 00:12:11,040
You'll be out in a few days.
Trust me, okay.

TWO YEARS LATER

246
00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:26,000
That's enough, you're too kind, Ruben.

247
00:12:26,720 --> 00:12:29,200
[Ruben] I'll put in two more,
on the house, Marisa.

248
00:12:29,200 --> 00:12:32,000
It's just that I have
my two grandkids visiting.

249
00:12:32,560 --> 00:12:34,960
- They eat more than me.
- [Ruben] We don't have any children.

250
00:12:34,960 --> 00:12:38,120
But our fifteen-year-old
nephew's stomach is a bottomless pit.

251
00:12:38,120 --> 00:12:41,640
- [Marisa] But it's wonderful having kids.
- They're also exhausting.

252
00:12:41,640 --> 00:12:44,520
At our age, we're just glad
to make enough to live a good life.

253
00:12:44,520 --> 00:12:45,760
[Marisa] Thank God for that.

254
00:12:45,760 --> 00:12:48,680
I'm gonna need
your autograph. It's certified.

255
00:12:48,680 --> 00:12:50,800
[Ruben] Ah, great, another fine!

256
00:12:50,800 --> 00:12:53,560
- It's from the Provincial Court.
- [Ruben] Which one?

[paper rustling]

258
00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:03,160
- It'll be dumb luck, isn't that right?
- [woman] What?

259
00:13:03,160 --> 00:13:04,680
It seems I won the lottery.

260
00:13:07,040 --> 00:13:07,880
Good morning.

261
00:13:07,880 --> 00:13:10,680
- [Garrido, Pedro] Good morning.
- [Juanjo] Uh, good morning, um...

262
00:13:10,680 --> 00:13:13,920
Your Honor, with your permission,
um, before we get started, uh,

263
00:13:13,920 --> 00:13:17,480
my co-council on the defense and I
would like to give you fair warning

264
00:13:17,480 --> 00:13:21,720
of the overwhelming prejudices that
I'm almost certain we're about to witness.

265
00:13:21,720 --> 00:13:24,080
[Llanos] So what, you want
to recuse all the candidates?

266
00:13:24,080 --> 00:13:25,560
- Well.
- I mean, Your Honor,

267
00:13:25,560 --> 00:13:28,480
the main issue is that
due to the coverage of this

268
00:13:28,480 --> 00:13:31,920
and the overt and improper involvement
of our media conglomerates,

269
00:13:31,920 --> 00:13:37,000
there's not a person in all of Spain that
hasn't already formed their own prejudices

270
00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:40,080
in respect to the guilt
or innocence of the defendants.

271
00:13:40,960 --> 00:13:42,280
Listen, counselors.

272
00:13:43,000 --> 00:13:45,800
This matter was already resolved
in the appeal process.

273
00:13:45,800 --> 00:13:49,240
You're allowed to recuse four members,
if you so desire. Understood?

274
00:13:50,600 --> 00:13:53,000
Very well. It's time
to start the interviews.

275
00:13:53,000 --> 00:13:55,080
[Pedro] <i>Do you
understand the responsibility</i>

276
00:13:55,080 --> 00:13:56,720
<i>of being a member of the jury?</i>

277
00:13:56,720 --> 00:13:57,640
[man 1] <i>I do.</i>

278
00:13:57,640 --> 00:14:00,120
I don't think anyone enjoys
having that responsibility.

279
00:14:00,840 --> 00:14:02,360
But that girl deserves justice.

280
00:14:02,360 --> 00:14:04,720
No, I've never heard of Rosario Porto.

281
00:14:05,840 --> 00:14:08,360
- Are you sure?
- Absolutely.

282
00:14:08,360 --> 00:14:10,760
[Juanjo] Do you think that someone
can love an adopted child

283
00:14:10,760 --> 00:14:12,720
the same way they do a biological one?

284
00:14:12,720 --> 00:14:14,960
[puffs] That's tough.

285
00:14:14,960 --> 00:14:17,840
Because my kids are mine, right?

286
00:14:17,840 --> 00:14:19,840
I mean, they came from me.

287
00:14:19,840 --> 00:14:22,640
[Juanjo] So you're familiar
with the case we're talking about?

288
00:14:22,640 --> 00:14:24,680
- What kind of question's that?
- Excuse me?

289
00:14:24,680 --> 00:14:27,120
We're on the edge of our seats,
how could I not know?

290
00:14:27,120 --> 00:14:28,160
Of course I do.

291
00:14:28,880 --> 00:14:30,240
Everyone knows about it, right?

292
00:14:30,240 --> 00:14:31,880
[man 2] <i>Oh, the Chinese girl.</i>

293
00:14:31,880 --> 00:14:34,280
Obviously, yes, yes. Of course, of course.

294
00:14:34,280 --> 00:14:37,160
Yes, yes. I guess I do know about her.

295
00:14:37,800 --> 00:14:40,720
I mean, no, there's no way
I could hurt my children.

296
00:14:40,720 --> 00:14:45,280
[Pedro] <i>When it comes time
to cast a verdict, can you be decisive?</i>

297
00:14:46,000 --> 00:14:48,480
I'm pretty sure
I'd need to deliberate. [chuckles]

298
00:14:49,720 --> 00:14:52,320
But, well, yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I suppose I could.

299
00:14:53,160 --> 00:14:54,480
I mean, only if I'm sure.

300
00:14:55,640 --> 00:14:56,640
Because, in the end...

301
00:14:57,480 --> 00:14:59,240
it's a responsibility I take seriously.

302
00:14:59,240 --> 00:15:00,360
[Juanjo] As you should.

303
00:15:01,000 --> 00:15:01,880
I do.

304
00:15:03,280 --> 00:15:06,040
I'd have trouble sleeping knowing
my decision sent someone to prison

305
00:15:06,040 --> 00:15:07,760
for a crime they didn't commit.

306
00:15:08,800 --> 00:15:11,800
When deciding a verdict,
you should have a clear conscience.

307
00:15:11,800 --> 00:15:14,120
[tense music playing]

308
00:15:14,120 --> 00:15:16,640
Okay. The trial starts tomorrow morning.

309
00:15:17,200 --> 00:15:19,000
Don't be late, that's all I ask of you.

310
00:15:21,280 --> 00:15:23,080
<i>Here, in the Provincial Court in Santiago,</i>

311
00:15:23,080 --> 00:15:26,160
<i>the much-anticipated trial for
the well-known Asunta Case is starting.</i>

00:15:27,360 --> 00:15:31,840
<i>A jury will determine if Rosario Porto

<i>of murdering their daughter,
Asunta Yong Fong Basterra Porto.</i>

315
00:15:35,520 --> 00:15:38,000
<i>The trial is scheduled for 24 days.</i>

316
00:15:38,000 --> 00:15:41,080
<i>But, considering the public outcry
about the parents' guilt,</i>

317
00:15:41,080 --> 00:15:42,880
<i>it might be resolved earlier.</i>

318
00:15:42,880 --> 00:15:47,480
<i>If that's true, we might finally get
the answers to the questions we all have:</i>

319
00:15:47,480 --> 00:15:48,720
<i>Why did they do it?</i>

320
00:15:48,720 --> 00:15:51,920
<i>How could these parents
murder their own child?</i>

321
00:15:51,920 --> 00:15:53,480
[reporter] What is your approach?

322
00:15:53,480 --> 00:15:55,560
Are they moving forward
with a joint defense?

323
00:15:55,560 --> 00:15:56,560
Do they have a chance?

324
00:15:56,560 --> 00:15:59,760
We believe in the innocence
of Rosario Porto and Alfonso Basterra.

325
00:15:59,760 --> 00:16:02,840
Despite all of the biased leaks
about our clients

326
00:16:02,840 --> 00:16:05,520
that have been repeated
time and time again by the press.

327
00:16:05,520 --> 00:16:08,160
These stories have tried
to sentence our clients

328
00:16:08,160 --> 00:16:10,720
before they even had a chance
to receive a fair trial.

329
00:16:10,720 --> 00:16:11,640
Have a nice day.

330
00:16:11,640 --> 00:16:13,880
- Why were they giving her pills?
- No comment.

331
00:16:13,880 --> 00:16:16,560
- Thank you. Excuse me.
- What do you have to say about...

332
00:16:16,560 --> 00:16:18,160
[Juanjo] Thank you, have a good day.

[handcuffs unfastening]

342
00:17:25,760 --> 00:17:26,920
Hello, Rosario.

343
00:17:29,000 --> 00:17:30,000
Stay calm.

344
00:17:34,360 --> 00:17:36,000
[music fades]

00:17:36,000 --> 00:17:37,080

[clears throat]

347
00:17:41,240 --> 00:17:45,480
Before a jury of their peers,
the Attorney General's office,

348
00:17:46,000 --> 00:17:50,680
the defendants, Rosario Porto Ortega,
Alfonso Basterra Camporro,

349
00:17:50,680 --> 00:17:51,920
and their defense team,

350
00:17:52,480 --> 00:17:54,400
I hereby declare the start of the trial

351
00:17:54,400 --> 00:17:56,960
for the murder
of Asunta Yong Fang Basterra Porto.

352
00:17:57,760 --> 00:18:01,120
[somber music playing]

353
00:18:04,360 --> 00:18:06,480
[Pedro] Ms. Porto,
according to the record,

354
00:18:06,480 --> 00:18:08,720
on the initial visit
to the house in Montouto

355
00:18:08,720 --> 00:18:10,280
the night your daughter was murdered,

356
00:18:10,280 --> 00:18:14,280
the officer who was with you
found you next to a wastebasket,

357
00:18:14,280 --> 00:18:15,880
on the way to the bathroom.

358
00:18:15,880 --> 00:18:17,960
[Rosario] In the master bathroom, yes.

359
00:18:17,960 --> 00:18:19,760
[Pedro] Did you touch the wastebasket?

360
00:18:19,760 --> 00:18:22,040
- No, of course not.
- [Pedro] Are you sure?

361
00:18:22,040 --> 00:18:23,240
[Rosario] I never touched it.

362
00:18:23,800 --> 00:18:26,440
Um, I just needed to go to the bathroom.

363
00:18:26,440 --> 00:18:29,200
- [Pedro] And did you?
- I think they made me wait.

364
00:18:29,200 --> 00:18:30,120
[Pedro] Okay.

365
00:18:30,120 --> 00:18:33,720
In the wastebasket,
they found a strand of orange twine.

366
00:18:33,720 --> 00:18:35,480
- Is that right?
- [Rosario] Mm-hmm.

367
00:18:37,360 --> 00:18:38,560
Next picture, please.

368
00:18:38,560 --> 00:18:40,000
[crowd gasps]

369
00:18:40,760 --> 00:18:44,120
[Pedro] Ms. Porto, what do you use
that twine for in your house?

370
00:18:44,960 --> 00:18:46,360
[hushed chatter]

371
00:18:47,240 --> 00:18:48,080
Um...

372
00:18:49,360 --> 00:18:52,080
I assumed that my gardeners used it.

373
00:18:53,200 --> 00:18:54,720
To tend to the garden.

374
00:18:54,720 --> 00:18:58,200
[Pedro] Can you please explain to us,
if it's used for gardening,

375
00:18:58,200 --> 00:19:01,000
why was the twine found
in your bedroom's trash bin?

376
00:19:02,160 --> 00:19:06,120
I don't know. I mean obviously,
the gardeners wouldn't go in my room.

377
00:19:06,120 --> 00:19:08,040
I don't know. [sobbing]

378
00:19:12,680 --> 00:19:16,760
Could you please do me a favor?
Take that photo down.

379
00:19:20,680 --> 00:19:21,960
[Pedro] Take the photo down.

380
00:19:26,800 --> 00:19:27,640
Thank you.

381
00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:39,440
[Ríos] <i>My partner stayed at the road
with forensics, as is standard protocol.</i>

382
00:19:40,800 --> 00:19:43,960
<i>And I went with Rosario and Alfonso
to the house in Montouto.</i>

383
00:19:44,720 --> 00:19:47,560
When we entered the home,
Rosario switched off the alarm.

384
00:19:48,040 --> 00:19:51,360
Then she told me that
she urgently needed to use the bathroom.

385
00:19:51,360 --> 00:19:54,320
She moved to the staircase
and began to go upstairs,

386
00:19:54,320 --> 00:19:55,880
so I followed her, naturally.

387
00:19:56,840 --> 00:19:59,240
I soon realized
she had gone into a bedroom.

388
00:19:59,240 --> 00:20:00,800
[Pedro] The one with the wastebasket?

389
00:20:00,800 --> 00:20:03,200
Yes. It was beside the toilet
in the bathroom.

390
00:20:05,120 --> 00:20:07,760
There's been a lot of discussion
about the twine,

391
00:20:07,760 --> 00:20:10,080
but no one talked about how they were cut.

392
00:20:10,080 --> 00:20:13,200
How the end pieces connect
on each one of the samples.

393
00:20:13,200 --> 00:20:17,400
Through analysis they found
the twine in the wastebasket doesn't fit

394
00:20:17,400 --> 00:20:19,280
the twine found on the road.

395
00:20:19,280 --> 00:20:22,640
The ends don't match.
Can you confirm that information?

396
00:20:22,640 --> 00:20:24,800
They are the same type of twine.

397
00:20:25,640 --> 00:20:27,720
Due to the material's composition,

398
00:20:27,720 --> 00:20:29,960
it's impossible to confirm
they came from the same twine,

399
00:20:29,960 --> 00:20:31,840
that's why that evidence is irrelevant.

400
00:20:31,840 --> 00:20:34,960
Oh, well, I mean, if it's relevant
or not is still up for debate.

401
00:20:34,960 --> 00:20:37,760
Uh, your investigation
arrived at this conclusion:

402
00:20:37,760 --> 00:20:40,960
It's not common to find
this exact type of twine

403
00:20:40,960 --> 00:20:43,800
in the area near Santiago, Cacheiras, Teo...

404
00:20:45,280 --> 00:20:47,680
Maybe because you didn't look very hard.

405
00:20:48,240 --> 00:20:51,400
With far less resources
than you have at the Civil Guard,

406
00:20:51,400 --> 00:20:53,840
I managed to search
and produce, in half a day,

407
00:20:53,840 --> 00:20:56,920
three orange twines that fit
the other's description exactly.

408
00:20:58,120 --> 00:21:01,360
You didn't find any twine like this
during your investigation?

409
00:21:02,160 --> 00:21:04,720
Those twines aren't the same material.

410
00:21:04,720 --> 00:21:08,600
To say they're the same twine,
simply because they have orange coloring,

411
00:21:08,600 --> 00:21:09,960
that's false information.

412
00:21:10,880 --> 00:21:11,720
Is it really?

413
00:21:12,800 --> 00:21:14,600
Why were you in such a rush

414
00:21:14,600 --> 00:21:18,160
to close this line of inquiry
in your initial investigation, I wonder?

415
00:21:20,680 --> 00:21:22,240
Let me answer that for you.

416
00:21:22,240 --> 00:21:26,240
You didn't investigate because you
decided who to blame before you started.

417
00:21:26,240 --> 00:21:28,840
Not through investigation,
but at the very beginning.

418
00:21:28,840 --> 00:21:30,960
[Llanos] Refrain from
drawing conclusions, counselor.

419
00:21:30,960 --> 00:21:32,120
[Juanjo raps desk lightly]

{\an8}THE CAMERA AT THE GAS STATION

424
00:21:45,600 --> 00:21:48,360
[Pedro] I want you to take
a good look at this video.

425
00:21:48,360 --> 00:21:53,240
This is the last known camera footage
that captures Asunta alive.

426
00:21:53,800 --> 00:21:56,280
Ms. Porto, the night
you and your ex-husband

427
00:21:56,280 --> 00:21:58,720
filed a report at the police station,

428
00:21:58,720 --> 00:22:03,120
you told the police you left the girl
at the house, doing her homework. Right?

429
00:22:03,120 --> 00:22:04,360
That's what happened.

430
00:22:04,920 --> 00:22:08,480
She was home doing homework alone
after we got back from the country.

431
00:22:09,440 --> 00:22:11,920
That's not what
you told the police initially.

432
00:22:11,920 --> 00:22:14,040
[Rosario] She told me she was tired.

433
00:22:14,040 --> 00:22:17,160
That she had some Chinese homework
she wanted to finish

434
00:22:17,160 --> 00:22:19,000
from one of her teachers, Ms. Wong.

435
00:22:19,680 --> 00:22:23,040
[Pedro] Why not just pick up the swimsuits
when you first went to the country house?

436
00:22:23,040 --> 00:22:24,440
Why did you go back again?

437
00:22:24,440 --> 00:22:26,600
Because I had to air out the house.

438
00:22:27,520 --> 00:22:28,440
And...

439
00:22:29,200 --> 00:22:30,200
it takes an hour.

440
00:22:30,200 --> 00:22:34,600
And that time, which route did you use
to get there? Th... There's no record.

441
00:22:35,200 --> 00:22:38,040
That time, we took the back roads.

442
00:22:39,600 --> 00:22:40,560
But, uh...

443
00:22:41,560 --> 00:22:45,960
The truth is, I really can't remember
the exact way we went at the moment.

444
00:22:45,960 --> 00:22:48,120
[Pedro] You can't remember. Right.

445
00:22:49,160 --> 00:22:50,560
And where did you leave the girl?

446
00:22:52,880 --> 00:22:59,200
I left her somewhere between
República Argentina and Puente Castro.

447
00:22:59,800 --> 00:23:01,680
[Pedro] You know
what's strange, Ms. Porto?

448
00:23:01,680 --> 00:23:04,840
The story you just told the court
cannot be confirmed.

449
00:23:04,840 --> 00:23:07,040
Not one thing you just said in that story.

450
00:23:07,040 --> 00:23:11,840
No cameras, no witnesses,
not a single thing. Absolutely nothing.

451
00:23:11,840 --> 00:23:14,920
But we do have a record
of your initial statement.

452
00:23:15,560 --> 00:23:18,120
You said the girl
wasn't with you in the car.

453
00:23:18,800 --> 00:23:21,680
But as soon as you were told
there was a camera,

454
00:23:21,680 --> 00:23:24,160
suddenly, she was.

455
00:23:24,160 --> 00:23:27,760
Ms. Porto, the last time
Asunta was seen alive on camera,

456
00:23:27,760 --> 00:23:30,040
she was in your car, you were together,

457
00:23:30,040 --> 00:23:32,760
and the place you're driving to
is your property.

458
00:23:32,760 --> 00:23:34,200
Are you sticking to your story?

459
00:23:34,200 --> 00:23:36,360
It's the truth, I swear.

460
00:23:36,360 --> 00:23:39,160
That is the exactly
what happened that day.

461
00:23:40,880 --> 00:23:43,760
[ominous music playing]

462
00:23:43,760 --> 00:23:46,760
THE PURCHASES OF LORAZEPAM

463
00:23:46,760 --> 00:23:51,480
[Pedro] Do you recall having bought,
on 5th July, 2013,

464
00:23:51,480 --> 00:23:54,120
a box of 50 lorazepam pills

465
00:23:54,120 --> 00:23:57,720
from the Lopez Sierra pharmacy
at 23, Rúa Do Hórreo?

466
00:23:59,000 --> 00:24:01,920
Well, I don't remember
exact dates, but probably.

467
00:24:01,920 --> 00:24:04,680
I took care
of buying Rosario's medication,

468
00:24:04,680 --> 00:24:06,400
um, among other things.

469
00:24:06,400 --> 00:24:10,720
And can you tell us what occurred
on 9th, 18th and 23rd July?

470
00:24:11,360 --> 00:24:16,000
You were told by the girl's music teacher
that your daughter wasn't feeling well.

471
00:24:16,000 --> 00:24:20,000
Do you remember telling her
that the girl was drugged?

472
00:24:20,000 --> 00:24:22,720
No, no. That's not what I said.

473
00:24:22,720 --> 00:24:26,000
When I saw Asunta I said
she appeared to be drugged. Okay?

474
00:24:26,000 --> 00:24:28,080
There's a difference,
don't know if you can hear it.

475
00:24:28,080 --> 00:24:29,080
[Pedro] Yes, yes.

476
00:24:29,080 --> 00:24:30,840
I remember what it was.

477
00:24:30,840 --> 00:24:34,360
She took an antihistamine medication
for her allergies.

478
00:24:34,360 --> 00:24:37,480
Right. Then, how do you explain
that the toxicology tests

479
00:24:37,480 --> 00:24:41,000
run on the child postmortem,
specifically in an effort to find them,

480
00:24:41,000 --> 00:24:43,800
didn't find any traces
of these so-called allergy meds?

481
00:24:43,800 --> 00:24:46,240
They did however
find another kind of medication,

482
00:24:46,240 --> 00:24:48,880
amounting to 27 pills of lorazepam.

483
00:24:48,880 --> 00:24:52,160
[Alfonso] Well, I remember Asunta
was taking medication for her rhinitis.

484
00:24:52,160 --> 00:24:54,760
Your daughter had a similar explanation.

485
00:24:54,760 --> 00:24:58,720
She told her teacher her parents
were giving her a "white powder."

486
00:24:58,720 --> 00:25:00,800
A medication, by the way,

487
00:25:00,800 --> 00:25:03,800
that her own pediatrician
denies having prescribed.

488
00:25:04,400 --> 00:25:06,040
Tell me something, Mr. Basterra,

489
00:25:06,040 --> 00:25:07,880
would you describe this as normal?

490
00:25:07,880 --> 00:25:12,760
That a person gets 150 pills
of lorazepam? In ten days?

491
00:25:14,680 --> 00:25:17,080
It was an extremely
difficult time for Rosario.

492
00:25:17,080 --> 00:25:19,400
She was hospitalized and just got out.

493
00:25:19,400 --> 00:25:21,600
She would always forget
where she left her phone.

494
00:25:21,600 --> 00:25:23,360
Um, at the time I remember that,

495
00:25:23,360 --> 00:25:27,240
I mean, she was forgetful
and would constantly misplace her pills.

496
00:25:27,240 --> 00:25:29,240
Mr. Basterra... [clears throat]

497
00:25:30,080 --> 00:25:31,120
One more question.

498
00:25:33,000 --> 00:25:35,440
Tell us what you did
while Asunta was sleeping.

499
00:25:36,320 --> 00:25:37,160
Slept as well.

500
00:25:37,880 --> 00:25:38,920
And nothing more.

501
00:25:39,840 --> 00:25:43,200
[ominous music playing]

502
00:25:47,560 --> 00:25:49,560
[footsteps]

503
00:25:52,000 --> 00:25:53,080
Luis, hey!

504
00:25:55,720 --> 00:25:57,640
I really wish
I could've been at the funeral.

505
00:25:57,640 --> 00:25:59,480
Things are, you know,
pretty hectic lately.

506
00:26:01,280 --> 00:26:02,320
How are you?

507
00:26:03,320 --> 00:26:04,200
I'm fine.

508
00:26:04,880 --> 00:26:07,760
After a long winter there's always spring.
That's what he'd say.

509
00:26:08,800 --> 00:26:10,920
He wasn't himself these past months.

510
00:26:10,920 --> 00:26:12,320
But, that's life, right?

511
00:26:13,560 --> 00:26:14,920
My condolences, Your Honor.

512
00:26:17,720 --> 00:26:18,680
[groans]

513
00:26:22,040 --> 00:26:24,640
What I wouldn't give to be in there
just to see their faces, huh?

514
00:26:24,640 --> 00:26:28,000
- Oh, it feels good, I won't lie.
- You bet your ass it does.

515
00:26:28,000 --> 00:26:30,120
I left you the perfect case, didn't I?

516
00:26:30,600 --> 00:26:32,400
Be careful, just keep
your eye on the ball.

517
00:26:32,400 --> 00:26:34,400
Don't worry, come on, come on, come on.

518
00:26:34,400 --> 00:26:35,840
- [lighter clicks]
- I got it.

519
00:26:40,200 --> 00:26:41,640
Are you using those photos?

520
00:26:44,200 --> 00:26:46,800
[ominous music playing]

521
00:26:47,320 --> 00:26:50,000
As you look at these photos,
please keep calm.

522
00:26:50,000 --> 00:26:51,920
THE PHOTOS ON THE CELL PHONE

523
00:27:04,560 --> 00:27:05,920
[Pedro] Stop there, please.

524
00:27:10,920 --> 00:27:14,760
Alfonso, will you please
look at the image on the screen.

525
00:27:15,320 --> 00:27:19,640
I think Rosario explained that
Asunta liked to pretend she was a mummy.

526
00:27:20,480 --> 00:27:21,880
No, Rosario didn't say that.

527
00:27:23,280 --> 00:27:26,600
What Rosario said was,
our daughter liked to play dress up.

528
00:27:27,160 --> 00:27:29,400
She gave several examples
that I can confirm.

529
00:27:30,040 --> 00:27:33,000
And, excuse me, but, um,
why are you keeping this photo up?

530
00:27:33,000 --> 00:27:35,840
Which can be misleading
because of the way she's posing.

531
00:27:36,360 --> 00:27:37,760
Why not leave up the previous one?

532
00:27:37,760 --> 00:27:41,400
Why would you keep this one up there,
unless you had bad intentions. Hm?

533
00:27:41,400 --> 00:27:43,400
It seems like there's a reason, right?

534
00:27:44,240 --> 00:27:47,440
[Llanos] The prosecutor wanted to ask
a question about this photograph.

535
00:27:49,120 --> 00:27:52,440
The photos where the girl
is dressed up the night of the cabaret...

536
00:27:53,160 --> 00:27:55,280
- You took them, right?
- [Alfonso] No, I don't think so.

537
00:27:55,280 --> 00:27:59,200
They were taken on my wife's phone,
I'm almost 100% sure about that.

538
00:28:00,240 --> 00:28:04,440
Because the phone I had at the time
had a camera that took terrible pictures.

539
00:28:04,440 --> 00:28:05,920
Another photo, please.

540
00:28:07,840 --> 00:28:08,840
Go back, please.

541
00:28:10,160 --> 00:28:11,000
Thank you.

542
00:28:14,040 --> 00:28:15,480
Is that your hand there?

543
00:28:17,200 --> 00:28:18,240
I assume it is.

544
00:28:19,200 --> 00:28:21,040
Yes. That's my hand.

545
00:28:21,040 --> 00:28:24,440
Can you tell me if it's you
taking the photo? At that moment?

546
00:28:26,240 --> 00:28:27,200
I don't know.

547
00:28:28,200 --> 00:28:29,720
I don't remember for certain.

548
00:28:29,720 --> 00:28:32,600
- [Pedro] You don't remember?
- No. No. No.

549
00:28:33,760 --> 00:28:36,360
We always had a camera.
There are hundreds of photos.

550
00:28:37,120 --> 00:28:39,360
That's why I'm unsure,
because, you know, like any parent

551
00:28:39,360 --> 00:28:41,280
I took a lot of photos of our girl.

552
00:28:41,280 --> 00:28:43,440
[Pedro] So what is it then, Mr. Basterra?

553
00:28:44,720 --> 00:28:48,240
Did you take the photos,
or was it Rosario?

554
00:28:48,240 --> 00:28:51,000
[tense music playing]

555
00:28:51,000 --> 00:28:52,440
[Garrido] Ms. Porto, um...

556
00:28:53,240 --> 00:28:55,560
The costume, the make-up.

557
00:28:55,560 --> 00:28:59,280
Was this a decision by the school,
so all the girls would be matching?

558
00:29:00,240 --> 00:29:04,240
Yes. The girls dressed the same
for the performance. The school wanted it.

559
00:29:05,160 --> 00:29:08,360
[Garrido] This was corroborated
by a teacher who worked for the school

560
00:29:08,360 --> 00:29:09,560
at the time.

561
00:29:10,320 --> 00:29:12,040
During the investigation,

562
00:29:12,040 --> 00:29:15,200
these photos shown here were discovered
on your daughter's cell phone.

563
00:29:16,400 --> 00:29:19,640
Is it true that before your daughter
used this phone it belonged to you first?

564
00:29:19,640 --> 00:29:20,680
Yes.

565
00:29:21,200 --> 00:29:22,320
It was mine.

566
00:29:23,320 --> 00:29:27,280
After a while, I decided to upgrade it,
so it went to Asunta.

567
00:29:28,000 --> 00:29:29,520
[Garrido] Tell me something, then.

568
00:29:29,520 --> 00:29:31,720
What do you think the reason is

569
00:29:31,720 --> 00:29:35,000
that someone would take photos
with alleged dark intentions,

570
00:29:35,000 --> 00:29:37,400
as the prosecutor claims was done here,

571
00:29:37,400 --> 00:29:39,800
with the telephone
belonging to the victim?

572
00:29:39,800 --> 00:29:41,320
My honest opinion?

573
00:29:42,040 --> 00:29:43,200
[Garrido] Your honest opinion.

574
00:29:44,680 --> 00:29:45,600
No idea.

575
00:29:47,200 --> 00:29:48,080
No idea.

576
00:29:50,400 --> 00:29:55,560
Your Honor, do I have permission
to say something else about these photos?

577
00:29:56,400 --> 00:29:57,480
Go ahead.

578
00:29:57,480 --> 00:30:01,040
In my opinion,
only a dirty mind could look at that

579
00:30:01,040 --> 00:30:05,240
and misinterpret family photographs of
a girl dressed up for the school ballet.

580
00:30:05,240 --> 00:30:07,360
I don't understand.

581
00:30:07,360 --> 00:30:10,240
I don't know what
the prosecutor is insinuating here.

582
00:30:11,240 --> 00:30:14,920
When even her teacher said that
when the girls get home after the ballet,

583
00:30:14,920 --> 00:30:17,120
they all take photos in their costumes.

584
00:30:17,120 --> 00:30:20,320
I don't know if anyone else
in the court has children

585
00:30:20,320 --> 00:30:22,760
who participate in festivals or in plays,

586
00:30:22,760 --> 00:30:25,920
but they're very excited when it's over.

587
00:30:28,440 --> 00:30:29,720
No further questions.

588
00:30:31,480 --> 00:30:32,680
[Juanjo] Mr. Miranda,

589
00:30:33,280 --> 00:30:37,120
I want you to pay close attention
to the following images.

590
00:30:37,120 --> 00:30:38,680
THE VISIBILITY ON THE ROAD

591
00:30:38,680 --> 00:30:39,760
Please.

592
00:30:41,160 --> 00:30:44,360
[Juanjo] Stop it right there, please.
At timestamp 10:17.

593
00:30:45,840 --> 00:30:48,280
That night at 10:17, approximately,

594
00:30:48,280 --> 00:30:51,160
please remind us
where you were around this time.

595
00:30:51,160 --> 00:30:54,000
On Saturday, September 21st.

596
00:30:54,000 --> 00:30:55,640
[Miranda] Well, right around that time,

597
00:30:55,640 --> 00:30:58,920
I was walking up that road
with my wife, carrying a flashlight.

598
00:30:59,640 --> 00:31:04,280
Then, walking back later, it was
around 11:15, 11:20, we passed by there.

599
00:31:04,960 --> 00:31:09,400
We were only two and a half feet away from
the spot where they found the girl's body.

600
00:31:09,400 --> 00:31:12,200
When we passed by that night,
we didn't see anything.

601
00:31:12,960 --> 00:31:15,480
Mhm. Therefore, you would have seen it,

602
00:31:15,480 --> 00:31:17,680
if the girls body had been there.

603
00:31:18,360 --> 00:31:19,800
Was there enough light?

604
00:31:19,800 --> 00:31:21,440
It was pretty late.

605
00:31:21,440 --> 00:31:23,960
I just told you,
I was carrying a flashlight.

606
00:31:23,960 --> 00:31:25,200
[Juanjo] You had a flashlight.

607
00:31:25,800 --> 00:31:28,600
So, if the defendants
were at the police station

608
00:31:28,600 --> 00:31:30,400
reporting the disappearance
of their daughter

609
00:31:30,400 --> 00:31:33,000
at the same time
you passed along the road,

610
00:31:33,000 --> 00:31:36,920
it's impossible for them
to have left the body there, right?

611
00:31:40,200 --> 00:31:41,040
Thank you.

612
00:31:42,080 --> 00:31:44,480
Okay, Mr. Miranda... Um...

613
00:31:45,880 --> 00:31:48,760
Do you recall what you said
during the investigation?

614
00:31:48,760 --> 00:31:52,960
I mean, I don't really remember
the exact words I used then, but still,

615
00:31:52,960 --> 00:31:54,680
I said the same thing as right now.

616
00:31:54,680 --> 00:31:57,240
I'm not all knowing,
but I know the body wasn't there.

617
00:31:57,240 --> 00:32:00,360
[Pedro] Ah, let me ask you something else.

618
00:32:01,200 --> 00:32:03,240
Were you chatting
with your wife at the time?

619
00:32:03,240 --> 00:32:04,240
[Miranda] Yes, so what?

620
00:32:04,240 --> 00:32:06,800
[Pedro] Well, is it possible,
that at that moment,

621
00:32:06,800 --> 00:32:09,360
you weren't paying attention
to the side of the road?

622
00:32:09,360 --> 00:32:12,280
[Miranda] Say what you want,
but I swear that body wasn't there.

623
00:32:12,280 --> 00:32:16,040
What do you want to hear? That she
was there? No, I don't believe she was.

624
00:32:17,440 --> 00:32:20,000
However, the visibility test
you did the next day

625
00:32:20,000 --> 00:32:22,360
with the Civil Guard says otherwise.

626
00:32:23,880 --> 00:32:26,880
That time you passed by the T-shirt
they placed on the road.

627
00:32:26,880 --> 00:32:30,720
The T-shirt that the officers left at the
exact location where they found the body.

628
00:32:30,720 --> 00:32:31,920
Isn't that right?

629
00:32:31,920 --> 00:32:34,120
[tense music playing]

630
00:32:35,960 --> 00:32:38,040
[Garrido] Excuse me, Your Honor, if I may,

631
00:32:38,040 --> 00:32:40,400
I would like to make a formal request.

632
00:32:40,400 --> 00:32:42,000
In order to prove this,

633
00:32:42,000 --> 00:32:45,760
can our jury members here, go themselves
to the spot where she was on the road,

634
00:32:45,760 --> 00:32:50,320
to see if the witness is telling the truth
about what he saw, in his testimony, uh,

635
00:32:50,320 --> 00:32:52,560
that he could've seen her body.

636
00:32:53,480 --> 00:32:54,360
[Llanos] Denied.

637
00:32:55,680 --> 00:32:58,600
The jury will only evaluate
the evidence presented in this courtroom.

638
00:32:58,600 --> 00:33:01,080
The evidence from
the preliminary investigation.

639
00:33:03,920 --> 00:33:05,920
[somber music playing]

640
00:33:08,680 --> 00:33:10,280
[Ruben] <i>I'm sick to my stomach.</i>

641
00:33:10,280 --> 00:33:12,560
We're sitting like statues
for eight hours.

642
00:33:12,560 --> 00:33:14,800
I don't understand
half the words they say.

643
00:33:16,040 --> 00:33:18,160
Well, it won't last forever,
just a few days.

644
00:33:18,160 --> 00:33:21,200
And if you don't go,
they hold you in contempt of court.

645
00:33:22,840 --> 00:33:26,400
Let's be real, ask me
all about oxtail, shank, or round,

646
00:33:26,400 --> 00:33:28,600
but about laws?
How am I expected to know all that?

647
00:33:29,120 --> 00:33:31,480
Honey, you're not expected
to know about laws.

648
00:33:31,480 --> 00:33:33,840
They expect you to think
about what really happened.

649
00:33:33,840 --> 00:33:36,640
Leave that! You'll break
our only calculator.

650
00:33:37,400 --> 00:33:40,760
I haven't slept in three days.
I don't know where I am half the time.

651
00:33:40,760 --> 00:33:43,480
I can see that girl. Asleep like an angel.

652
00:33:43,480 --> 00:33:46,320
Jesus, Jesus, Jesus.
It's burned in my mind.

653
00:33:46,320 --> 00:33:47,600
Do you remember Xurxo?

654
00:33:48,320 --> 00:33:50,920
He veered off the road
and drove into the Miño river.

655
00:33:50,920 --> 00:33:54,760
He survived, but his wife got stuck
and she drowned in the river.

656
00:33:55,400 --> 00:33:57,520
He leapt out of a window
two days after that.

657
00:33:57,520 --> 00:34:01,720
- He was probably drunk out of his mind.
- The conscience, honey. It'll get you.

658
00:34:01,720 --> 00:34:05,000
Honestly, it's the one thing
that I don't understand.

659
00:34:05,000 --> 00:34:06,720
The parents don't seem burdened.

660
00:34:06,720 --> 00:34:10,360
Of course. Xurxo may have been a drunk,
but at least he was normal.

661
00:34:11,440 --> 00:34:13,760
Remember we have dinner
with my sister tonight.

662
00:34:25,480 --> 00:34:27,720
[woman] On the one night
we go out for dinner?

663
00:34:27,720 --> 00:34:30,560
[Ruben] It won't take long.
Then we'll head straight there.

00:34:46,480 --> 00:34:47,440
[engages handbrake]

665
00:34:50,360 --> 00:34:51,520
- [engine stops]
- [Ruben sighs]

666
00:34:56,040 --> 00:34:58,240
[woman] That's it?
That's where they found her?

667
00:35:00,880 --> 00:35:01,720
[flicks switch]

668
00:35:05,280 --> 00:35:06,560
[whispers] What are you doing?

669
00:35:11,480 --> 00:35:12,800
Can you see it or not?

670
00:35:19,400 --> 00:35:24,720
{\an8}CORRECTIONAL FACILITY

671
00:35:26,760 --> 00:35:28,720
- Tell me what's going on.
- I didn't say anything.

672
00:35:28,720 --> 00:35:32,000
You don't have to.
You're thinking about the same thing I am.

673
00:35:33,360 --> 00:35:35,240
They're giving us quite the beating.

674
00:35:35,240 --> 00:35:37,640
Well, we still have
some opportunities open to us.

675
00:35:37,640 --> 00:35:39,920
We both knew how hard this case would be.

676
00:35:40,840 --> 00:35:42,160
But you couldn't say no?

677
00:35:42,160 --> 00:35:44,480
No. That wasn't an option.

678
00:35:46,760 --> 00:35:49,560
But I hoped there was something else
that could help me.

679
00:35:55,240 --> 00:35:56,280
[car door opens]

680
00:35:57,160 --> 00:35:59,400
You think Rosario's
hiding something, right?

681
00:36:02,400 --> 00:36:03,680
She can't help you now.

682
00:36:03,680 --> 00:36:06,040
Did you read the report
from the psychologist?

683
00:36:06,560 --> 00:36:09,640
The woman's a narcissist.
She only cares about self-preservation.

684
00:36:09,640 --> 00:36:13,520
She's not going to tell you anything that
might tarnish her reputation and status.

685
00:36:13,520 --> 00:36:17,160
My dear, it's always easy after the fact
to come up with these reports.

686
00:36:17,840 --> 00:36:20,600
If those reports were only given
to us before a crime was done,

687
00:36:20,600 --> 00:36:23,320
they'd save us an awful lot
of trouble. Am I right?

688
00:36:25,480 --> 00:36:28,200

[Juanjo] <i>What can we do, Rosario?</i>

690
00:36:31,720 --> 00:36:34,800
<i>The case seems to be
getting away from us, I won't lie.</i>

691
00:36:35,320 --> 00:36:37,160
<i>I'm not surprised at all.</i>

692
00:36:37,160 --> 00:36:40,480
What should a member of the jury
assume when the defendant lied?

693
00:36:40,480 --> 00:36:41,880
And when you add to that,

694
00:36:41,880 --> 00:36:44,680
she didn't report a murder attempt
on her daughter.

695
00:36:44,680 --> 00:36:46,840
<i>Don't tell me you don't trust me.</i>

696
00:36:49,000 --> 00:36:50,680
<i>I need a new angle.</i>

697
00:36:50,680 --> 00:36:54,080
<i>Something to help us prove
your innocence in the eyes of the jury.</i>

698
00:36:55,040 --> 00:36:57,200
<i>New information you haven't said yet.</i>

699
00:36:58,600 --> 00:37:01,240
- [Juanjo] Anything.
- <i>I'm sorry, there's nothing more.</i>

700
00:37:01,920 --> 00:37:03,400
<i>There's nothing more.</i>

701
00:37:06,160 --> 00:37:07,400
<i>Think carefully, Rosario.</i>

702
00:37:07,400 --> 00:37:10,480
<i>Think carefully, because you may not
get another opportunity.</i>

703
00:37:11,000 --> 00:37:12,280
<i>Time's almost up.</i>

704
00:37:13,480 --> 00:37:14,640
Think hard.

705
00:37:15,360 --> 00:37:17,360
Maybe it's not something about you.

706
00:37:18,480 --> 00:37:21,400
I don't know,
maybe it's something about Alfonso.

707
00:37:21,400 --> 00:37:24,160
[gasps] <i>Alfonso made this so bad.</i>

708

709
00:37:32,480 --> 00:37:34,560
<i>This shouldn't have gone like this.</i>

710
00:37:36,600 --> 00:37:41,560
<i>I only wanted to be happy.</i> [crying]

711
00:37:41,560 --> 00:37:44,000
<i>That's all I really wanted, Juanjo.</i>

712
00:37:44,600 --> 00:37:47,720
<i>But I still don't know why you say
it's Alfonso's fault, I don't know.</i>

713
00:37:48,640 --> 00:37:49,480
<i>I don't know.</i>

714
00:37:51,120 --> 00:37:53,120
[breathing shakily]

715
00:37:54,000 --> 00:37:54,840
[Juanjo] All right.

716
00:37:56,360 --> 00:37:59,480
In that case, we'll move forward
with the joint defense.

717
00:37:59,480 --> 00:38:01,120
We have no other choice.

718
00:38:04,640 --> 00:38:05,960
<i>You'll stay together.</i>

719
00:38:07,400 --> 00:38:08,640
<i>Until the very end.</i>

[Juanjo leaving]

722
00:38:22,920 --> 00:38:24,760
- [buzzer sounds]
- [breathes deeply]

723
00:38:29,040 --> 00:38:31,360
[sobbing]

724
00:38:36,160 --> 00:38:37,200
Are we leaving?

725
00:38:38,400 --> 00:38:39,840
I've asked for five minutes.

726
00:38:43,480 --> 00:38:45,400
Your ex-wife is
dragging you down with her.

727
00:38:45,400 --> 00:38:47,560
If it continues, I won't be able to help.

728
00:38:49,560 --> 00:38:51,120
Do you want 20 years in prison?

729
00:38:51,760 --> 00:38:53,320
- Of course not.
- [Garrido] Okay.

730
00:38:54,040 --> 00:38:56,400
Then we can't go on with a joint defense.

731
00:38:56,400 --> 00:38:59,240
More options open up for us
if you're on your own.

732
00:39:00,000 --> 00:39:02,840
But it doesn't depend on me,
it's your choice.

733
00:39:05,840 --> 00:39:08,600
Nothing will change the fact
that my daughter's gone.

734
00:39:12,600 --> 00:39:13,440
No.

735
00:39:14,840 --> 00:39:16,680
No, no, Alfonso. You're right.

736
00:39:18,040 --> 00:39:20,400
Asunta isn't coming back. That's true.

737
00:39:21,000 --> 00:39:21,920
That's not all,

738
00:39:21,920 --> 00:39:25,120
neither are the two years you were locked
up, and the twenty more they'll ask for.

739
00:39:25,120 --> 00:39:26,880
Today, they'll try
to convince those people

740
00:39:26,880 --> 00:39:29,440
that you accompanied her
and the girl to Montouto.

741
00:39:29,440 --> 00:39:31,160
Did you know they have a witness?

742
00:39:31,640 --> 00:39:33,560
I never went to the country house.

743
00:39:34,200 --> 00:39:36,280
But why are you still covering for her?

744
00:39:39,240 --> 00:39:40,920
Rosario didn't murder Asunta.

745
00:39:41,640 --> 00:39:43,520
And I'm never going to say otherwise.

746
00:39:43,520 --> 00:39:45,760
[Garrido] Tell me why
you insist on doing this.

747
00:39:45,760 --> 00:39:47,600
I can't wrap my head around it!

748
00:39:47,600 --> 00:39:49,760
- She's my wife.
- No, no.

749
00:39:49,760 --> 00:39:52,720
No, she hasn't been your wife
since she left your daughter at home

750
00:39:52,720 --> 00:39:54,080
to be with another man.

751
00:39:56,000 --> 00:39:58,960
What is this? What, what? Pride?

752
00:39:58,960 --> 00:40:02,520
What are you trying to prove?
That you're above everything and everyone?

753
00:40:02,520 --> 00:40:06,400
With what they have already, I promise
you're not getting out of this prison.

754
00:40:06,400 --> 00:40:10,480
Even if we convince them that this girl
didn't see you on the street that day.

755
00:40:12,000 --> 00:40:15,040
Bare minimum, can we
be a little realistic?

756
00:40:15,040 --> 00:40:18,480
Let's go out there and say that,
that Rosario got nervous,

757
00:40:18,480 --> 00:40:21,360
- that she called you and...
- There's no way I'm lying to them.

758
00:40:21,360 --> 00:40:23,400
Your silence is a guilty charge.

759
00:40:27,400 --> 00:40:28,480
Tell me something.

760
00:40:32,160 --> 00:40:33,560
Could you live with yourself knowing

761
00:40:33,560 --> 00:40:35,840
the person you shared
your life with killed your daughter?

762
00:40:35,840 --> 00:40:36,880
I don't know.

763
00:40:38,000 --> 00:40:40,360
Honestly, Alfonso, it's
an impossible question.

764
00:40:40,360 --> 00:40:42,040
But I've done this for years.

765
00:40:42,040 --> 00:40:44,320
The innocent ones
don't want to rot in jail, never,

766
00:40:44,320 --> 00:40:45,960
and that's what I don't like about this.

767
00:40:46,880 --> 00:40:47,720
Okay.

768
00:40:49,000 --> 00:40:49,920
What do you think?

769
00:40:50,840 --> 00:40:51,960
Tell me the truth.

770
00:40:56,120 --> 00:40:57,840
The same thing everyone else will.

771
00:41:00,360 --> 00:41:03,800
You're hiding a dark truth,
something worse than her death.

772
00:41:12,200 --> 00:41:15,080
[Pedro] Do you remember what you did
on the afternoon of September 21st?

773
00:41:15,080 --> 00:41:16,560
THE TELEPHONE RECORDS

774
00:41:16,560 --> 00:41:19,800
[Alfonso] I spent the afternoon
doing something I love: reading.

775
00:41:20,280 --> 00:41:21,320
A book, of course.

776
00:41:22,240 --> 00:41:24,320
And, how long did you stay home?

777
00:41:26,240 --> 00:41:30,520
Well, until, uh, 9:30, or 9:45 p.m.

778
00:41:31,120 --> 00:41:32,440
I stayed in all night.

779
00:41:32,920 --> 00:41:34,000
[Pedro] Tell me something.

780
00:41:34,880 --> 00:41:37,440
Does your apartment
have good cell phone reception?

781
00:41:41,480 --> 00:41:43,000
I mean, yeah, it's normal.

782
00:41:43,760 --> 00:41:45,320
The same as in town, you know.

783
00:41:45,800 --> 00:41:48,960
- Why is that important.
- [Pedro] Don't worry, I'll tell you why.

784
00:41:48,960 --> 00:41:52,560
Explain how it's possible
that your phone emitted no signal

785
00:41:52,560 --> 00:41:56,760
between 3:00 in the afternoon
and 8:43 that evening?

786
00:41:56,760 --> 00:42:00,480
Maybe you kept your phone off
because you planned on disappearing?

787
00:42:00,480 --> 00:42:02,800
No, excuse me.
My cellphone wasn't completely off.

788
00:42:02,800 --> 00:42:04,760
I don't know where you got that from.

789
00:42:04,760 --> 00:42:07,600
[Pedro] So, that afternoon,
your phone was on?

790
00:42:07,600 --> 00:42:09,800
It was always on. I remember.

791
00:42:09,800 --> 00:42:12,640
It appears the prosecutor
has overlooked what we sent over.

792
00:42:12,640 --> 00:42:14,600
It's his phone's export report.

793
00:42:15,120 --> 00:42:18,000
It says that Alfonso's mobile phone
was able to connect

794
00:42:18,000 --> 00:42:20,120
to his house Wi-Fi and operate,

795
00:42:20,120 --> 00:42:22,960
and keep it from being picked up
by the city's boosters.

796
00:42:22,960 --> 00:42:25,400
It clearly shows,
if his telephone made calls,

797
00:42:25,400 --> 00:42:28,280
then it was only due
to his ability to connect to Wi-Fi,

798
00:42:28,280 --> 00:42:32,440
otherwise he couldn't
have made those calls at all. Right?

799
00:42:33,480 --> 00:42:38,160
Tell us, did you call anyone with
your phone that evening, Mr. Basterra?

800
00:42:38,160 --> 00:42:40,640
Yes, I think I called a couple of people.

801
00:42:41,720 --> 00:42:43,320
One call was to Rosario.

802
00:42:43,840 --> 00:42:46,960
I called up Asunta's cell
and the landline over in Montouto.

803
00:42:46,960 --> 00:42:49,040
- A few times, I remember.
- [Juanjo] Mhm.

804
00:42:49,040 --> 00:42:52,560
A magic telephone, no doubt, if it
can make calls while it's switched off.

805
00:42:52,560 --> 00:42:54,720
[Pedro] Your Honor,
that is not the complete truth.

806
00:42:54,720 --> 00:42:56,680
The times those calls were made...

807
00:42:56,680 --> 00:42:59,600
His phone also received
a couple of calls that day.

808
00:42:59,600 --> 00:43:01,280
[Llanos] This isn't a talk show.

809
00:43:02,080 --> 00:43:04,080
Please respect everyone's turn to speak.

810
00:43:04,920 --> 00:43:07,480
- Counselor, any further questions?
- [Juanjo] No, Your Honor.

811
00:43:07,480 --> 00:43:10,040
[Llanos] Now it's your turn
to speak, Ms. Garrido.

812
00:43:10,800 --> 00:43:14,840
I mentioned that you made calls,
but also received some calls on that day.

813
00:43:15,640 --> 00:43:18,920
For example, one call
was received around 9:36.

814
00:43:18,920 --> 00:43:22,400
From your previous place
of residence, on Doctor Teixeiro.

815
00:43:22,920 --> 00:43:23,760
Am I right?

816
00:43:24,280 --> 00:43:25,560
Yes, yes. That's correct.

817
00:43:26,400 --> 00:43:30,480
Is it correct of me to assume the person
who was calling in this instance

818
00:43:31,240 --> 00:43:32,760
was Ms. Rosario Porto?

819
00:43:34,800 --> 00:43:35,960
That's correct.

820
00:43:36,880 --> 00:43:38,080
[Garrido] What about?

821
00:43:39,360 --> 00:43:42,480
[Alfonso] She told me that
she didn't know where Asunta was,

822
00:43:42,480 --> 00:43:44,640
and asked if she was with me.

823
00:43:44,640 --> 00:43:47,560
[Garrido] Was that all?
There wasn't something else?

824
00:43:51,400 --> 00:43:52,960
I told her she wasn't at my house,

825
00:43:52,960 --> 00:43:55,600
and to phone
all her friends, their mothers

826
00:43:57,080 --> 00:43:59,680
and if nobody saw her,
then go to the police.

827
00:43:59,680 --> 00:44:02,760
[Garrido] Alfonso, that call
was five minutes long.

828
00:44:03,880 --> 00:44:04,920
Five minutes.

829
00:44:08,560 --> 00:44:11,400
You're certain that's all
you two talked about?

830
00:44:14,560 --> 00:44:15,800
Think carefully, please.

831
00:44:17,760 --> 00:44:19,360
I don't need to think about it.

832
00:44:20,960 --> 00:44:22,960
[dramatic music playing]

833
00:44:33,840 --> 00:44:35,960
[music fades]

834
00:44:36,560 --> 00:44:38,840
Next to the stand
is Laura Prieto Iglesias.

835
00:44:39,720 --> 00:44:41,720
[footsteps]

836
00:44:44,640 --> 00:44:48,080
THE FINAL WITNESS

837
00:44:48,080 --> 00:44:49,640
- [Pedro] Hello, Laura.
- Hello.

838
00:44:50,800 --> 00:44:52,960
[Pedro] Okay, before we start,

839
00:44:52,960 --> 00:44:55,840
can you tell us your full name
and how you knew Asunta?

840
00:44:55,840 --> 00:44:57,400
My name is Laura Prieto Iglesias.

841
00:44:57,400 --> 00:44:59,880
I knew Asunta from our French class
at Alianza Francesa.

842
00:44:59,880 --> 00:45:04,280
[Pedro] So, you have no doubt in your mind
that you saw Asunta and her father

843
00:45:04,280 --> 00:45:06,960
walking on the street
the evening of September 21st?

844
00:45:06,960 --> 00:45:09,960
Yes, I'm sure. I remember, because...

845
00:45:09,960 --> 00:45:12,600
Because they are... recognizable.

846
00:45:14,680 --> 00:45:17,800
[Pedro] So, where and when
did that encounter take place?

847
00:45:17,800 --> 00:45:21,120
It was definitely
before 7:00 p.m. and after 5:30.

848
00:45:21,760 --> 00:45:25,240
I remember walking down General Pardiñas.
They were walking together.

849
00:45:25,960 --> 00:45:27,560
On República del Salvador.

850
00:45:28,200 --> 00:45:31,640
- [Pedro] Where were you coming from?
- [Laura] I was buying some new sneakers.

851
00:45:32,360 --> 00:45:33,360
They were trainers.

852
00:45:33,840 --> 00:45:35,760
At the sports shop
that's in that neighborhood.

853
00:45:36,280 --> 00:45:37,480
It was up the street.

854
00:45:38,360 --> 00:45:39,320
[Pedro] Thank you.

855
00:45:39,880 --> 00:45:41,040
[Garrido] Hello, Laura.

856
00:45:41,760 --> 00:45:43,640
Look, the attorney is very clear,

857
00:45:43,640 --> 00:45:47,760
that at that time around 5:30 p.m.
to about 7 p.m., the times you mentioned,

858
00:45:47,760 --> 00:45:49,240
Asunta was already drugged.

859
00:45:50,320 --> 00:45:51,480
Did you notice anything?

860
00:45:51,480 --> 00:45:53,480
Was she walking strangely
when you saw her?

861
00:45:53,480 --> 00:45:55,560
Did you notice anything
that caught your attention?

862
00:45:55,560 --> 00:45:57,400
I don't remember seeing anything.

863
00:45:58,240 --> 00:46:00,720
[Garrido] Interesting, Laura,
because Asunta, at that time,

864
00:46:00,720 --> 00:46:03,760
had 27 pills of lorazepam in her system.

865
00:46:03,760 --> 00:46:07,600
If she indeed took those 27 pills
at Alfonso Basterra's apartment,

866
00:46:07,600 --> 00:46:10,480
like the investigation has stated
time and time again,

867
00:46:10,480 --> 00:46:13,120
it begs the question, how is it possible

868
00:46:13,120 --> 00:46:16,400
that in the timeframe you say
you saw them, she seemed all right?

869
00:46:16,400 --> 00:46:19,640
She was walking normally? You're sure
there was nothing strange? Nothing?

870
00:46:19,640 --> 00:46:21,960
As I said, she looked perfectly fine.

871
00:46:21,960 --> 00:46:24,160
- Nothing strange.
- [Garrido] Okay.

872
00:46:25,680 --> 00:46:30,360
And Rosario left the garage
at exactly 6:14,

873
00:46:30,360 --> 00:46:35,520
and as you can see here, she passed
by the camera at La Galuresa at 6:21.

874
00:46:36,120 --> 00:46:40,760
Can I see the picture of the receipt
for the sneakers. It's file 1344b,

875
00:46:40,760 --> 00:46:43,200
as provided by the Civil Guard
during the pre-trial,

876
00:46:43,200 --> 00:46:45,560
in the initial investigation. Please.

877
00:46:48,360 --> 00:46:49,720
Thank you very much.

878
00:46:49,720 --> 00:46:53,640
Laura, please read aloud
the date and time on the receipt.

879
00:46:55,640 --> 00:46:59,440
The receipt says
21st September, at 6:21 p.m.

880
00:47:00,440 --> 00:47:02,080
[Garrido] At 6:21 p.m.

881
00:47:02,080 --> 00:47:04,360
And considering you left after paying,

882
00:47:04,360 --> 00:47:08,600
and that the exit of the sports store
and the crosswalk are only six feet apart,

883
00:47:08,600 --> 00:47:10,800
how did you see Asunta
with Alfonso on the street,

884
00:47:10,800 --> 00:47:13,640
if at the exact same time,
the prosecutor has them in the car

885
00:47:13,640 --> 00:47:15,560
on their way to Teo,
passing by La Galuresa?

886
00:47:15,560 --> 00:47:17,800
[Pedro] I'd like the record to show

887
00:47:17,800 --> 00:47:20,560
that the cash register
wasn't connected to the internet,

888
00:47:20,560 --> 00:47:22,600
for that reason, we found it inadmissible.

889
00:47:22,600 --> 00:47:25,960
An example of how this investigation only
uses timeframes that support their story.

890
00:47:25,960 --> 00:47:27,800
- [Llanos] Counselor...
- They're meticulous...

891
00:47:27,800 --> 00:47:30,320
- Don't make me hold you in contempt.
- When it suits their story.

892
00:47:30,320 --> 00:47:31,240
[Llanos] Counselor.

893
00:47:33,240 --> 00:47:34,240
Don't answer the question.

894
00:47:36,960 --> 00:47:38,280
They were walking together.

895
00:47:39,120 --> 00:47:40,600
And I'm sure it was that day.

896
00:47:43,560 --> 00:47:45,640
[Garrido] No further questions,
Your Honor.

897
00:47:47,080 --> 00:47:49,920
[Pedro] For the moment,
let's set aside Laura Prieto's testimony,

898
00:47:49,920 --> 00:47:52,880
who stated what she saw on that day.

899
00:47:52,880 --> 00:47:56,880
Alfonso Basterra walking with his daughter
Asunta on the evening of the murder.

900
00:47:56,880 --> 00:48:00,560
We can also set aside the fact
that he had his phone turned off,

901
00:48:00,560 --> 00:48:03,440
his total lack of cooperation
during the entire investigation,

902
00:48:04,040 --> 00:48:08,080
and the long list of inconsistencies,
lies, and contradictions

903
00:48:08,080 --> 00:48:09,840
that both of them have told us.

904
00:48:10,360 --> 00:48:13,160
It's been proven during this trial
that the child

905
00:48:13,160 --> 00:48:17,280
Asunta Yong Fong Basterra Porto
was sedated.

906
00:48:17,280 --> 00:48:21,640
She was administered high doses
of lorazepam repeatedly

907
00:48:21,640 --> 00:48:24,640
over the last three months
of her short life.

908
00:48:24,640 --> 00:48:27,600
And you can see
the common denominator here.

909
00:48:27,600 --> 00:48:30,240
The apartment on República Argentina.

910
00:48:30,240 --> 00:48:32,440
Because at the apartment of Mr. Basterra

911
00:48:32,440 --> 00:48:35,640
is where she slept
whenever she experienced dizzy spells.

912
00:48:36,240 --> 00:48:39,840
It's in his apartment
where she had lunch for the last time,

913
00:48:39,840 --> 00:48:42,720
alongside her mother Rosario Porto.

914
00:48:43,480 --> 00:48:46,000
And yet, the question remains.

915
00:48:46,000 --> 00:48:51,160
Why is Mr. Basterra, with the amount
of evidence incriminating his ex-wife,

916
00:48:51,760 --> 00:48:53,880
still refusing to speak against her?

917
00:48:55,360 --> 00:48:56,480
The explanation?

918
00:48:57,120 --> 00:48:58,480
The explanation?

919
00:48:58,480 --> 00:49:02,400
Because they both had their reasons
to murder their daughter, Asunta.

920
00:49:03,080 --> 00:49:04,920
Ms. Rosario Porto Ortega,

921
00:49:04,920 --> 00:49:08,040
because she felt overwhelmed
by her daughter.

922
00:49:08,040 --> 00:49:10,360
Mr. Alfonso Basterra Camparro,

923
00:49:10,360 --> 00:49:12,840
because he was willing to do everything,

924
00:49:13,360 --> 00:49:18,080
I mean absolutely everything,
to get his lost marriage to her back.

925
00:49:18,680 --> 00:49:20,840
And to get her family money.

926
00:49:22,360 --> 00:49:26,040
This crime bonded her to him forever.

927
00:49:29,280 --> 00:49:31,880
[Garrido] The prosecutor talks
a lot about evidence.

928
00:49:31,880 --> 00:49:35,120
But, as of today,
two years after the death of Asunta,

929
00:49:35,120 --> 00:49:37,600
there is not a single piece
of evidence. I'll repeat that.

930
00:49:37,600 --> 00:49:41,240
There's not a single piece of evidence
that places my client, Alfonso Basterra

931
00:49:41,240 --> 00:49:42,680
in that house in Montouto,

932
00:49:43,360 --> 00:49:45,640
or on the road
where they found Asunta's body.

933
00:49:46,440 --> 00:49:50,160
Members of the jury, what's more,
without any physical evidence,

934
00:49:50,160 --> 00:49:53,920
the argument is my client
was in two locations at the same time.

935
00:49:53,920 --> 00:49:56,760
The testimony of the
prosecutor's witness begs that question,

936
00:49:56,760 --> 00:50:00,080
when Laura Prieto argues
that she saw Alfonso walking with Asunta

937
00:50:00,080 --> 00:50:01,440
on that day in September.

938
00:50:02,480 --> 00:50:03,840
How could that be possible,

939
00:50:03,840 --> 00:50:07,320
when out of the 37 security cameras
that the officers checked,

940
00:50:07,320 --> 00:50:11,400
not a single camera in that area was able
to show Mr. Basterra with his daughter?

941
00:50:12,120 --> 00:50:15,160
My answer. It's as simple as memory.

942
00:50:16,080 --> 00:50:17,880
Laura Prieto really meant it.

943
00:50:17,880 --> 00:50:19,760
She just got the dates all wrong.

944
00:50:20,560 --> 00:50:23,400
Laura Prieto's saying
what she thinks she saw.

945
00:50:23,400 --> 00:50:26,400
Because on 21st September 2013,

946
00:50:26,400 --> 00:50:28,680
Alfonso Basterra never left his house.

947
00:50:29,160 --> 00:50:32,120
I repeat. He never left his house.

948
00:50:32,640 --> 00:50:35,600
Why then, is the attorney
fixated on my client,

949
00:50:35,600 --> 00:50:40,560
in this whole story without a shred
of proof, only implications, and theories?

950
00:50:40,560 --> 00:50:43,360
The prosecutor is trying so hard
to make you believe

951
00:50:43,360 --> 00:50:46,560
that it's the defendant's responsibility
to prove their alibi.

952
00:50:46,560 --> 00:50:48,760
When, actually, it's the other way around.

953
00:50:48,760 --> 00:50:51,040
In respecting my client's
right to a defense,

954
00:50:51,040 --> 00:50:53,120
the prosecution has to show the proof,

955
00:50:53,120 --> 00:50:55,400
the evidence on which
the verdict is reached.

956
00:50:55,400 --> 00:50:58,640
Which up to now,
they have shown, the proof isn't there.

957
00:51:00,800 --> 00:51:01,880
I want to be clear.

958
00:51:02,360 --> 00:51:06,760
My one hope, would be that you seriously
consider the defense I've given here,

959
00:51:07,400 --> 00:51:11,800
and make your judgement based solely
on the evidence, without prejudice.

960
00:51:12,560 --> 00:51:15,680
If you deliberate using your reason...

961
00:51:15,680 --> 00:51:18,120
I'll put it in other words,

962
00:51:18,120 --> 00:51:21,840
if you vote knowing you have
a... responsibility to be fair to my client,

963
00:51:23,480 --> 00:51:24,960
then I've done my job.

964
00:51:27,400 --> 00:51:29,440
I only ask that you do yours as well.

965
00:51:31,680 --> 00:51:32,760
Thank you very much.

966
00:51:37,360 --> 00:51:39,160
[Juanjo] Ladies and gentlemen of the jury.

967
00:51:39,160 --> 00:51:42,080
The prosecutor has maintained
during this trial

968
00:51:42,080 --> 00:51:46,760
an accusation based on inconsistent
evidence that doesn't add up.

969
00:51:46,760 --> 00:51:48,680
At other times, mere speculation.

970
00:51:49,200 --> 00:51:53,480
The truth is, there's no incriminating
evidence or proof whatsoever

971
00:51:53,480 --> 00:51:56,920
against the defendants, as my colleague
has already made clear in her defense.

972
00:51:56,920 --> 00:51:59,720
Not today, and not then, that's the truth.

973
00:52:00,320 --> 00:52:02,800
As many of you
probably already know by now,

974
00:52:03,720 --> 00:52:06,360
Rosario Porto is a licensed lawyer.

975
00:52:07,360 --> 00:52:09,200
She has a proven academic background,

976
00:52:09,200 --> 00:52:11,680
in other words,
she's an intelligent person.

977
00:52:13,120 --> 00:52:17,280
Do you really think,
if she had murdered her own daughter,

978
00:52:18,320 --> 00:52:19,840
she would leave traces behind?

979
00:52:21,200 --> 00:52:24,160
Prints, clues, it was all avoidable.

980
00:52:25,320 --> 00:52:28,280
Like the famous white powder
or the orange twine.

981
00:52:29,440 --> 00:52:31,120
That wouldn't make sense at all.

982
00:52:32,520 --> 00:52:33,880
Which brings me to the point.

983
00:52:33,880 --> 00:52:37,400
The person who did this
is still out there, unpunished and free.

984
00:52:37,400 --> 00:52:40,200
A criminal who's capable
of murdering someone again.

985
00:52:41,920 --> 00:52:46,280
The prosecutor, in collusion with the
investigating judge assigned to the case,

986
00:52:46,280 --> 00:52:49,920
he started a campaign
to turn a mother into a monster.

987
00:52:51,040 --> 00:52:53,840
Well please, there you have it,
a monster, at my side.

988
00:52:55,400 --> 00:52:58,960
Let me ask you what would
make a parent do such a thing?

989
00:52:59,560 --> 00:53:03,000
They're parents who gave their daughter
the best education possible.

990
00:53:03,640 --> 00:53:07,160
They're parents who supported
and loved their child unconditionally.

991
00:53:08,360 --> 00:53:09,880
But they suddenly murder her?

992
00:53:12,640 --> 00:53:15,960
Let me tell you the reason,
there's no plausible reason at all.

993
00:53:16,680 --> 00:53:20,280
Consider all of this
and analyze all of the facts,

994
00:53:20,280 --> 00:53:22,880
the evidence that has
been proven and unproven,

995
00:53:22,880 --> 00:53:25,960
and take your time
to deliberate thoroughly

996
00:53:26,560 --> 00:53:28,080
before reaching your verdict.

997
00:53:28,800 --> 00:53:33,280
What's at stake is the freedom and honor
of two people who have been incarcerated

998
00:53:33,280 --> 00:53:34,400
for over two years.

999
00:53:35,600 --> 00:53:37,560
Two parents who lost their daughter.

1000
00:53:40,360 --> 00:53:42,320
That'll be all. Thank you very much.

1001
00:53:43,120 --> 00:53:44,280
[Llanos] Thank you, counselor.

1002
00:53:45,080 --> 00:53:47,040
Now that you've heard all the evidence

1003
00:53:47,040 --> 00:53:49,720
and the statements
from the prosecutor and the defendants,

1004
00:53:49,720 --> 00:53:51,560
it's time for you to deliberate.

1005
00:53:51,560 --> 00:53:53,080
I wish you all the best of luck.

1006
00:53:53,080 --> 00:53:55,800
Make your decision in accordance
with the instructions from the court

1007
00:53:55,800 --> 00:53:58,000
and with sound moral judgement. Thank you.

1008
00:54:00,680 --> 00:54:05,120
[dramatic music playing]

1009
00:54:08,720 --> 00:54:10,240
Can we get on with the vote?

1010
00:54:11,760 --> 00:54:15,480
[Ruben] If I try to get in the mind
of someone who'd kill their own daughter,

1011
00:54:17,880 --> 00:54:19,560
this seems far-fetched.

1012
00:54:21,560 --> 00:54:22,720
Don't you all agree?

1013
00:54:25,320 --> 00:54:29,680
Considering, he left the house,
and he's not seen by any cameras.

1014
00:54:31,080 --> 00:54:34,000
To avoid the cameras he would've
had to have walked much further

1015
00:54:34,000 --> 00:54:35,640
and through the city streets.

1016
00:54:35,640 --> 00:54:38,160
It was a Saturday afternoon, in Santiago!

1017
00:54:38,160 --> 00:54:40,920
At the end of the summer,
the streets are jam-packed.

1018
00:54:42,320 --> 00:54:44,040
I do deliveries with my van.

1019
00:54:44,640 --> 00:54:47,000
At 6:00, everyone's out
and about, you know?

1020
00:54:48,560 --> 00:54:50,680
And the girl had
so many drugs in her then.

1021
00:54:51,400 --> 00:54:53,960
In the middle of the street.
You're saying nobody noticed?

1022
00:54:55,080 --> 00:54:56,000
I don't know.

1023
00:54:56,720 --> 00:54:59,760
To me, it doesn't seem premeditated.

1024
00:55:00,480 --> 00:55:02,240
We have to assess all the evidence,

1025
00:55:02,240 --> 00:55:04,400
and I'm sure
we'll all have different opinions.

1026
00:55:04,920 --> 00:55:07,600
The important thing is
to have, um, some perspective.

1027
00:55:07,600 --> 00:55:10,320
[Ruben] Yeah, I'm trying,
but I have doubts.

1028
00:55:10,320 --> 00:55:12,440
A lot of the proof was like, uh,

1029
00:55:13,120 --> 00:55:14,240
"he didn't do this,"

1030
00:55:14,720 --> 00:55:15,800
"he didn't do...

1031
00:55:16,840 --> 00:55:19,840
well, this other thing,"
or "he should've done this." Um.

1032
00:55:20,360 --> 00:55:21,240
Honestly.

1033
00:55:21,960 --> 00:55:24,560
You saw everything that Basterra
didn't do for his daughter, right?

1034
00:55:24,560 --> 00:55:25,680
He didn't report it.

1035
00:55:26,280 --> 00:55:30,080
He didn't want to find out what happened
after someone broke in to try to kill her.

1036
00:55:30,080 --> 00:55:33,320
He didn't take the kid to the doctor,
even though she was dizzy.

1037
00:55:34,760 --> 00:55:38,120
Yeah. We all know
what we would have done, right?

1038
00:55:39,360 --> 00:55:40,920
But we weren't there.

1039
00:55:42,440 --> 00:55:46,040
My mother used to say, "what happens
at home should be handled at home."

1040
00:55:46,040 --> 00:55:48,080
Well, maybe it doesn't mean anything, but...

1041
00:55:48,080 --> 00:55:51,360
[juror 1] What would your mother say about
Basterra turning his phone off all night?

1042
00:55:52,040 --> 00:55:54,400
Maybe she'd think
he didn't want to be found.

1043
00:55:54,400 --> 00:55:56,800
And remember that
whenever he purchased the pills,

1044
00:55:56,800 --> 00:55:58,200
the girl had dizzy spells,

1045
00:55:58,200 --> 00:56:00,840
and they would happen the day after
she stayed at her dad's.

1046
00:56:00,840 --> 00:56:03,680
And the times she was
on lorazepam match the days

1047
00:56:03,680 --> 00:56:06,120
she went over to her father's
to have dinner.

1048
00:56:08,160 --> 00:56:10,880
[juror 1] You can vote however you want,
but we have to vote.

1049
00:56:13,640 --> 00:56:15,560
Did you follow the case in the media?

1050
00:56:17,320 --> 00:56:19,600
No. I work too much.

1051
00:56:20,360 --> 00:56:22,840
Then you didn't hear the conversations
between Basterra and Porto

1052
00:56:22,840 --> 00:56:24,920
in the cell when they were arrested?

1053
00:56:28,960 --> 00:56:32,720
"Don't talk about anything inappropriate.
These cells have microphones."

1054
00:56:32,720 --> 00:56:34,760
That's what Alphonso said to Rosario.

1055
00:56:35,360 --> 00:56:38,160
"Yes, but that horny imagination of yours
is going to get us

1056
00:56:38,160 --> 00:56:40,040
in a lot of trouble," she answered.

1057
00:56:40,040 --> 00:56:42,200
"You didn't have time to do that, right?"

1058
00:56:44,920 --> 00:56:46,040
That's what they said?

1059
00:56:47,080 --> 00:56:49,240
[juror 2] That's what
they said to each other in jail.

1060
00:56:49,240 --> 00:56:51,840
[juror 3] You don't talk like that
unless you're hiding something.

1061
00:56:54,040 --> 00:56:55,600
But we have to remember...

1062
00:56:56,920 --> 00:57:00,600
None of these conversations were
introduced in the trial, or were they?

1063
00:57:04,400 --> 00:57:05,520
Well in that case,

1064
00:57:06,120 --> 00:57:08,040
we can't be deliberating on those.

1065
00:57:08,040 --> 00:57:10,800
[juror 1] Whether they're part
of the trial or not, we all heard them.

1066
00:57:10,800 --> 00:57:12,240
I have zero doubts.

1067
00:57:13,080 --> 00:57:14,240
Can we get on with the vote?

1068
00:57:14,760 --> 00:57:16,760
[tense music playing]

1069
00:57:22,120 --> 00:57:24,120
[suspenseful music playing]

1070
00:57:49,840 --> 00:57:52,040
[Llanos] The jury's
spokesperson may speak.

1071
00:57:59,680 --> 00:58:02,360
The jury, unanimously,

1072
00:58:03,840 --> 00:58:07,320
finds the defendant
Rosario Porto Ortega guilty

1073
00:58:08,680 --> 00:58:11,400
of the murder of Asunta Basterra Porto,

1074
00:58:11,400 --> 00:58:13,880
without her being able to defend herself.

1075
00:58:15,960 --> 00:58:22,960
Likewise, the jury, unanimously finds the
defendant Alfonso Basterra Camporro guilty

1076
00:58:24,240 --> 00:58:27,080
of the murder of Asunta Basterra Porto,

1077
00:58:27,720 --> 00:58:29,800
without her being able to defend herself.

1078
00:58:31,160 --> 00:58:33,080
Based on the following facts as found,

1079
00:58:34,120 --> 00:58:38,600
Mr. Alfonso Basterra Camporro
and Ms. Rosario Porto Ortega,

1080
00:58:38,600 --> 00:58:40,240
by mutual agreement...

1081
00:58:42,680 --> 00:58:44,680

Good job, you guys.

00:59:22,480 --> 00:59:24,000
Next week, we're back at it.

1086
00:59:24,480 --> 00:59:26,960
[Pedro] Yeah, I heard
you're on the Fiaño case.

1087
00:59:27,560 --> 00:59:28,680
Mm-hmm.

1088
00:59:29,880 --> 00:59:30,720
JJ...

1089
00:59:32,200 --> 00:59:34,400
you must really love difficult cases.

1090
00:59:36,400 --> 00:59:37,240
Till next time.

They'll give us the keys any day now,

closing up for them.

1098
01:00:30,880 --> 01:00:32,440
[Juanjo] Of course. Anything.

1099
01:00:34,120 --> 01:00:38,280
I was thinking I would like
to place an obituary in memory of Asunta,

1100

<i>Of course.</i>

1104
01:00:54,120 --> 01:00:55,120
Can you put...

"I'll love you... forever.
