“No one should be tried without there being a single rational indicator of criminality,” says Judge Vicente Ríos. And by his standards, there aren’t any here. Ana María Lillo, deputy judge of Ríos, shares this argument and has again filed a complaint against Mónica Oltra, accused by the far right of having concealed sexual abuse of her ex-husband in a center for supervised minors. A criminal proceeding that forced her to resign from her position as vice-president of the Generalitat Valenciana. The destruction of his political career is one of the keys to explaining how the disastrous Carlos Mazón became president.
“The facts investigated do not constitute any criminal offense,” maintains the prosecutor, who is also very energetic in his request for classification. Despite everything, this legal procedure is not yet over. It doesn’t seem like this is the end point either. The most likely is that the fourth section of the Provincial Court of Valencia will revoke this third file and reopen this judicial nightmare again. Despite the lack of evidence, I fear that Mónica Oltra will find herself in the dock within a few years. She will probably be acquitted. By then, it won’t matter.
