Psychiatrist Virginia Franco was 68 years old. His murder is wrapped in a great mystery/web
A bloody scene, a huge uproar, and many questions. Currently, the crime of psychiatrist Virginia Franco (68 years old) has not seen any arrests or clear suspects. The thing is that the path that led to those who were supposed to have managed their finances slipping, and who could have been exposed to poor economic management, seems to be weakening as the hours pass. So, coming back from the middle of the scene, everyone is wondering what happened between Friday night and Saturday morning at Cantillo’s house between 15A and 17 City Bell? Has the professional been harassed by an unknown person?
This latest version was released yesterday, although someone close to Franco has completely ruled it out.
“They say that two acquaintances from Virginia supposedly commented on it, but there is no stalker or someone who scares her. If that were the case, she would know. And she did not have internal cameras in her house. There were three cameras, but she sold one and the others did not work. This is a contradiction. If something bothered her, it was necessary to take preventive measures,” Hector told this newspaper, indicating that he is in direct contact with those who have moved into the professional environment. Not a very big circle.
He described her sadly: “She was my friend, I knew her well and I am devastated by what they did to her. She did not deserve to end up like this. She was a person with a big heart.”
Then, faced with the first testimonies submitted to the file, investigators were forced to reshape the scenario and start over with analysis from minute zero.
Spokesmen consulted indicated that investigators from the Homicide Bureau of the local DDI department were working on security cameras around the perimeter of Franco’s house, looking for interesting images, as well as with phones seized from the couple who were responsible for managing the psychiatrist’s money.
What could come out of those cell phones? Locating data, scheduling and exchanging messages, which might shed some light in the midst of so much darkness.
Although this situation was rather strange, because such a prominent doctor had no control over her appointments, such as fixed terms or other types of investments, it was rumored that she did not get along well with new technologies and preferred to delegate that task to third parties.
At that point, a revealing truth also emerged. The person who informed police that the doors to Franco’s home were unlocked, and somehow let it be known that her throat had been slit, gave authorities the password to the victim’s personal computer.
He is the one who – as it is said – was responsible for managing the deposits of the psychiatrist, who moved from the stage of suspicion to the stage of cooperative witness.
“We cannot rule anything out, everything is analyzed over and over again, but this is the situation today,” an informant familiar with the investigation told EL DIA.
What is undoubted in principle is on mobile. Regardless of whether Franco’s cell phone was only stolen, or was not stolen yet, this evidence is firmly believed.
Moreover, the perpetrator of the fatal attack must have been known to the doctor, because there was no forced access to the charming mansion on Cantillo Street. Either Franco opened the door willingly or she was deceived by her good intentions and left at the killer’s mercy.
A woman of the right time
It is known that the City Bell house will have a market value of approximately half a million dollars or a little more, according to some estimates. The psychiatrist is told about an apartment in Mar del Plata, perhaps another in Uruguay, two new trucks, bank deposits, a clinic near Bosque, and a husband – already deceased – with a good past, among other issues to be analysed.
This is the mystery that is being attempted to be solved, even by conducting a new visual inspection at the scene and requesting reports to find out who ultimately performed maintenance tasks on the home.
As indicated, the mission is supervised by the Public Prosecutor’s Office No. 11 of La Plata, headed by Álvaro Garganta.
