Short filmTranscript
00:12Okay, it's a beautiful day and I'm gonna knit and I think I've cried enough, I've cried
00:22every day. I think I've cried every day for the past, like, five weeks, just here and there.
00:40I don't, I don't know how to express really how this feels.
00:54Um, but I hope whatever happens and whatever the outcome is and that I can make peace with
01:03it soon after and that I can move forward doing the things that I want to do and live
01:10a very private life where I don't have to ever talk about this again.
01:20I hate talking about this.
01:45And attention to this alert that comes from the United States.
01:48United States alert to its citizens on a temperament sexual in Sevilla.
01:51Aconseca extremist security to all the people who travel to this city
01:55to not fall in the hands of this supposed aggressor sexual.
01:58We're at the moment to the United States alert to a tourist guide.
02:11A sevillian proprietor of a travel agency. On his website, they give all their data,
02:16with names and names.
02:30When I was going through this process of trying to spread this information out on the internet,
02:34I started seeing on Facebook, there was this new company.
02:39And it had very similar marketing to Discover Excursions and it had employees, former employees
02:46from Discover Excursions, working there.
02:50It might be Manuel's company and so I was like, does he have the gall to like open a new,
02:56like the same business, like again?
03:03So I went to the embassy and I was like, look, I just want this to be on your radar.
03:08He might be running a new business.
03:10And you know, there was an alert that was sent a warning to the girls at one point about him.
03:23I think, I don't really remember exactly what it said, but it was a warning to Americans to basically, be
03:28careful.
03:28I think, I don't really remember exactly what it said, but it was a warning to Americans to basically, be
03:44careful.
03:53What is the case of the United States?
03:55Why did the US do it? Because the investigation was very complex in the sense that the facts were happening
03:59outside of Spain.
04:03Spain didn't have a way to prove some of the accusations that were made, that they had been years ago.
04:10Spain didn't have a way to prove it.
04:16Spain didn't have a way to prove the truth.
04:17I wasn't really scared. This whole time I haven't really been that scared. I just been like really angry.
04:23The moment I got scared was when I realized that I had to write down my statement.
04:33I would say that the embassy tried their best to help us,
04:37but were very aware of letting us know what their limitations were.
04:43They were like, we've never had a case like this. And we were like, okay, well,
04:47can you help us figure it out?
04:51We didn't know what the fuck to do. Like, how do you file a rape case in Spain?
04:56Like, who do you even talk to?
05:00All these women are coming to me, so I can get statements from them.
05:06Then we can pass them along to the public prosecutor.
05:11So I started going to these women, asking them to write down their stories,
05:16answer any questions, go to the embassy, get questions answered, send that answer to that girl.
05:29Then I would get the form, and I would get it signed from the women.
05:34They would send that over. Then the embassy would be like, well, we need it in Spanish. And I was
05:38like,
05:39you motherfuckers. Okay. Let me call my abuela, who is this cute, tiny little Cuban woman.
05:47Translate my rapist, rapes of other women. Perfect. Thank you so much for your help.
05:54So that was going on for months and months and months. And that's how the embassy was kind of
05:59helping me, but I was doing all the work.
06:15It was really comforting to hear from another survivor. And it was really nice to hear that
06:19someone was doing something about it. I thought, not all of us can be ignored. I thought with all
06:24the evidence of so many people experiencing this, the police would surely do something about it and
06:29not ignore it. You know, it's when someone doesn't investigate your case, it is like telling you that
06:36you're not important enough.
06:44It's not fair what happened to me. And I feel bad looking at that 19-year-old girl that I
06:49was.
06:50I didn't deserve that. I was so innocent and sweet.
06:55I really thought I was going to die.
07:02Manu invited my friends and me out to keep on partying,
07:07and he offered to buy me a drink. And I said, okay, yeah, thank you.
07:26I drank it. And then, yeah, from there, I just started to feel really, really sick.
07:48And then I just started to, like, throw up a lot. Like, while laying down on my side,
07:53I didn't have any control over my body. And so it would just fall down. And I remember,
07:58just, I could not move. And I remember not even being able to see. I was so scared. I thought
08:07that
08:08I'm going blind. I remember, like, thinking this is how I was going to die. And I was going to
08:14die in
08:14that bathroom. He said to my friends, you guys go and have more fun. I'll take care of Zora. Like,
08:23I'll bring her back to the apartment and she'll be fine. Like, you know, it'll be safe.
08:31He just kept on pushing and pushing and pushing and telling people to leave me alone with him.
08:44I'm so, so grateful for my friends for, you know, being smart enough. My friends are just like,
08:51no, we stick together.
08:57Thank goodness. It was so great that they were able to protect me.
09:12After I was drugged, I just thought maybe it was the bartender. Maybe it was some stranger at the bar.
09:16I never in a million years would have thought it was Manu.
09:22And it wasn't until a few years after I saw, like, there was a website. I think Gabriella started.
09:36And when I looked it up, I saw everything. And then it clicked.
09:45I told Gabriella that I was happy to do whatever I could do to lock this man up because he
09:51is an awful
09:53criminal. And I actually ended up going back to Portugal.
10:05And while I was there, I filed a police report about being drugged by him.
10:13This is the police report that I filed.
10:23And their response to the case, it says, due to the lack of evidence, I ordered dismissal of the
10:31inquiry under article 277, number two of the criminal procedure code. So you just, there's no other way to
10:40feel but worthless.
10:52I knew that it probably started and ended with me. Like, if something happened to me,
10:56I'm pretty sure this would have fallen apart.
10:59Gabriella, a 19-year-old girl, maybe she was 21 when she was trying to actually get him.
11:04And then these girls would then rely on Gabriella.
11:08Gabriella, that was what was so hard for me is to see these girls relying on Gabriella to get justice
11:13for them.
11:21Um, I really never wanted to speak about it.
11:25I didn't tell my family or my friends until the possibility of a trial and legal
11:32um, representation came up. There's so much at stake and there's so much that should,
11:39needs to be known about how awful of a person he is that, um, it felt like an important opportunity.
11:49I genuinely think people think that I would have been worn down.
11:54Um, but I am so goddamn stubborn. Gabriella had a full-time job of being, like, our therapist and our,
12:06like, secretary and also our legal, um, like, helper. And so she has had to wear all these hats
12:14while also dealing and coming to terms with her own trauma.
12:26You see my binder I have?
12:30I did the whole fucking investigation.
12:34It's my best fucking work. Here you go. Here's your fucking case. Send them to prison.
12:52Gabriel Vega, who is in contact with me in Spain, tells me what happened to me.
12:58I don't have any doubt about that that story is real.
13:04I explained to him what was the process, how they were going to be the steps,
13:07and also, let's say, the complexity of the subject,
13:10because there were some facts that had happened outside of Spain,
13:15the territory where it was produced was not even in the European Union.
13:20They also had the difficulty of the possible witnesses,
13:24how they had developed the facts.
13:27The denuncia began in 2018.
13:29It's been seven years ago.
13:31Why did it take so long to get to the trial?
13:34Well, this was a case that was clear.
13:37There were some reports that we expected.
13:56So what are you thinking about the trials in another how many days?
14:02I don't know, what's the day? Is it 13 days?
14:05I think so, or maybe less.
14:08What are you thinking about it?
14:10I'm not thinking, I'm trying to not think about it.
14:14The only thing I can do is just not think about it.
14:17I don't know.
14:17Do you think you'd ever be willing to go back to Spain?
14:20What do you think?
14:23I don't know, I feel like there's been so much pressure on me going back to Spain for the trial.
14:28Yeah.
14:29I mean, part of me feels like I'll, like if it doesn't go well,
14:34that maybe it would have gone differently if I was in the room,
14:37but I feel like I would have had a mental breakdown if I went to Spain.
14:44I just don't want to think about it. I'd rather not know.
14:46Even if you told me he's on the other side of the country, I still don't know if I'd feel
14:50comfortable going to Spain. Only if he's in prison, I would go. But if he's not,
14:56I think I can make peace with not going back there again.
15:00I think you'll feel a big sense of relief when it's over, knowing that you've done
15:05everything you can do, right?
15:07Well, I don't know what else I could do.
15:09No, there's nothing else you can do.
15:11There's nothing else.
15:12I don't know.
15:26The police officer was against the tourist guide of Sevilla, accused of having
15:28violated a few American students.
15:31He always acted the same.
15:32He took advantage of that they were girls in a foreign country.
15:36The investigators have clear that we could talk about a sexual depredator,
15:40because it could have actually been agreded many other women.
15:44The accused was proprietor and also guide of a travel company in Sevilla.
15:50So this morning, he was in the national audience, taping with a paraguas.
15:56He was in the national anthem.
15:59He was in the national anthem, taping with a legal defense.
16:02But he was in the national anthem and if he left the legal,
16:04Everyone was hearing from that.
16:07The official anthem of this funeral,
16:08It's the final time.
16:10The will also have to come to the final message that we had there.
16:14But I always have to be afraid about,
16:17how the trials are going to look at,
16:19and we'll be able to predict what the judges do with the jury.
16:25Part of me wants to see the trial because how can I not see this? But we've decided we're not
16:32going to watch it. It would probably be too difficult.
16:38Bien, pues buenos días. Vamos a comenzar el juicio que la señora me trae de cuenta, por favor.
16:43Además de Gabriel, yo he presentado acusación que he mantenido en el acto del juicio por parte de otras dos
16:50mujeres atacadas.
16:59Aquí lo que hubo fue unos actos de exhibicionismo, tocamientos, provocación.
17:09I had asked the women who would want to go on and it was basically me. And then Hayley and
17:16Carly stepped up to that.
17:17Amanda Gorsen era una más de las víctimas.
17:26En su día, acompañamos la denuncia presentada por ella. Lo que nos exigió la sala en su momento es que
17:34tenía que haber un poder para pleitos.
17:40Antes de comenzar, se interpuso un recurso de súplica por la representación procesal de Amanda Gorsen.
17:49No obstante, teniendo en cuenta que el juicio comenzaba hoy, pues ya hemos dictado el auto desestimando el recurso de
17:57súplica.
17:58Entonces se lo comunicamos a estos sufectos.
18:02Yo presenté el recurso, el recurso se desestimó y lo único que provocaba era solicitar una suspensión, una discusión,
18:09que nos hubiese conducido en todo caso a provocar más demoras en el procedimiento.
18:16I mean, I think it's a failure across a lot of different systems.
18:20I think even when you try, like you can't actually get anything accomplished or get results or closure
18:29because the systems are so confusing and slow and unclear.
18:37So even if you attempt, it feels like futile to continue.
18:44El hecho delictivo no ha desaparecido porque la sala no la haya admitido usted como acusación.
18:50La acusación no se ha perdido y el hecho no se ha borrado.
18:53El hecho subsiste y la posibilidad de presentar la denuncia continúa.
18:57I'm disappointed a little bit.
18:59I'm nervous because, I mean, I had all these women and now it's just me and two other women.
19:05The original two.
19:07When there were a lot of women who wanted to be part of this case.
19:16Ya es el momento en que declare el acusado, si es que lo desea.
19:20Siéntese usted, por favor, ahí en estas primeras sillas.
19:23Le acerque el micrófono.
19:27El encontrarnos con un personaje como este,
19:30con esa, digamos, facilidad para delinquir que ha tenido él.
19:36Hemos tenido casos en España de a lo mejor un violador múltiple,
19:41pero ese violador múltiple a lo mejor han sido cuatro o cinco,
19:44que ya es mucho, ya es mucho.
19:46Pero lo de este caso es que se dispara, es decir, se escapa de la comprensión.
19:52Mire, usted como acusado en este juicio tiene derecho a no confesar ser culpable,
19:58no declarar en contra de usted mismo, no declarar en absoluto.
20:03Para mí, que el caso acabe en una condena, realmente sería una sorpresa.
20:11Y aquí estamos hablando del testimonio de una persona contra el testimonio de otra.
20:16¿Desea responder a las preguntas que le va a formular la fiscal,
20:19la acusación particular y la defensa?
20:21No tengo inconveniente en responder las preguntas de la señora fiscal,
20:24mi abogada y su señoría, si lo desea.
20:26Vale. O sea, no responde a la acusación particular.
20:29Correcto.
20:29Era presumible, porque es habitual que el acusado no conteste a la voz contraria.
20:36¿Qué crees que Manuel va a decir?
20:39No sé, probablemente no le va a decir nada tan inteligente.
20:42No sé lo que le va a decir.
20:45No sucedió.
20:46Nunca he visto a esta chica en mi vida.
20:48No sé lo que le va a decir.
20:49Lo que este hombre dice, es como...
20:51¿Por qué le voy a dar una mierda?
20:53En la defensa.
20:55Con la venia, señoría.
20:57Eh, Manuel, con respecto al viaje a Marruecos de fecha 2 de noviembre,
21:03¿niega usted que tuviera alguna relación con Gabriel Vega?
21:08Cero relación, muy buena.
21:09¿Puede usted contar qué es lo que pasó en esa habitación?
21:11Eh, yo recuerdo que fui con las tres chicas, que las vi arriba en la cafetería.
21:23Que es un café-bar que hay arriba.
21:26Y de ahí fuimos a la habitación, pedimos, creo que champán,
21:29y yo me tomé una copa y a la hora o si yo me marché.
21:33Eso fue lo que pasó.
21:35¿No tuvo usted entonces ninguna interacción sexual con ninguna de las...?
21:38En absoluto.
21:41No hay más preguntas, señoría.
21:44La conducta de este hombre iba a ser la de negarlo y negarlo,
21:47como ha mantenido hasta el día del juicio, que ha continuado negándolo.
21:50Bien, pues el ministro fiscal tiene la palabra.
21:53Buenas tardes.
21:55En relación con los hechos de Gabriel, usted, aparte de negarlos,
22:02usted manifestó que no conocía ni la cara ni el nombre de Gabriel.
22:08¿Mantiene esta afirmación?
22:10Yo conocí los hechos a través de Internet.
22:13En el 2000...
22:15No, no, yo no le digo los hechos.
22:17Le digo que no conoce su cara ni su nombre
22:21y que lo ve a través de redes sociales.
22:24¿No la había visto usted antes?
22:27A raíz del viaje.
22:30O sea, que usted sí la había visto.
22:32Sí, pero yo no, verás, yo seguramente la habré visto,
22:35pero que yo no recordaba a esa persona cuando la vi en televisión
22:38diciendo esas cosas, yo sé con qué persona tiene algún tipo de relación.
22:41Y yo con esa persona no tiene ningún tipo de relación.
22:45Le vi con la convicción de...
22:48Y perdón por la excursión de chulería
22:50de que a mí no me pasa nada porque yo no he hecho nada.
22:53Pero vamos, eso es completamente falso porque sí que ha hecho.
22:55En los viajes, se viaja con muchas personas.
22:58No puedo recordar todas las caras de las personas que conozco.
23:02¿Usted en esta época, en 2013, era el administrador de Voodoo Travel?
23:09Voodoo Travel era la sociedad de efectos contables fiscales
23:13y Discover Excursions es la marca comercial.
23:17¿Entró como becario?
23:19Sí.
23:20Yo entré allí en el 2010, creo, como becario,
23:25luego como trabajador, luego como director
23:28y luego me vendieron la empresa.
23:31Cambiamos la página web, cambiamos un poco todo, la oficina.
23:34La empresa estaba casi en quiebra, no tenía buenos números.
23:40Y la reflota, la reflota a base de inundar las universidades de publicidad,
23:45recorre universidades de toda España, incluso de Europa,
23:51dejando carteles, folletos, dándose a conocer
23:55y ofertando precios muy, muy, muy competitivos
23:58para que contrataran con él.
24:00Y cuando ocurrió esto en el 2018, la empresa iba súper bien.
24:05La cerramos en el 2018 a raíz de las apariciones en televisión de estas chicas.
24:11¿Tenía una particular relación con sus clientes,
24:15llevándoselas a sus habitaciones o cómo es esto?
24:19Yo personalmente, durante el tiempo que he estado trabajando en esa empresa,
24:23he tenido alguna relación con chicas en los viajes,
24:27pero siempre he sido consentida.
24:29Usted también manifestó que muchas veces las clientas
24:33se quedan dormidas en su casa y no pasaba nada.
24:37A ver, en mi casa las clientas no venían nosotros.
24:39A ver, en mi vida personal, ¿no puedo yo tener relaciones con personas?
24:43Pregunto.
24:46Pregunta retórica.
24:48Continúe, señora fiscal.
24:50Pues no hay más preguntas, señoría.
24:52¿Puede usted sentarse ahí detrás?
24:55Gracias.
24:55Gracias.
24:59No sé, es solo divertido.
25:02Como...
25:02Yo he pasado mucho de mi vida trabajando en esto,
25:05y luego verlo en el stand por 15 minutos,
25:09casi ríos en puntos,
25:12contradiciendo a mí,
25:13mentira,
25:13diciendo que no había visto en mi vida.
25:24Manuel Blanco siempre ha mantenido la misma versión de su inocencia absoluta
25:29y de que él no ha hecho nada grave.
25:31Tiene, digamos, ese derecho que yo combato a mentir.
25:43Manuel, ¿crees que vas a ir a la cárcel?
25:46¿Te ríes?
25:46No me río.
25:47¿Quieres decirle algo a las víctimas?
25:49No, no te río.
25:49¿Por qué no le dices algo?
25:51Dime una cosa,
25:51¿cómo es posible
25:53que todas coincidieran en sus declaraciones?
25:55Oye, no me toques.
25:57Bueno, te estoy hablando solamente.
25:58Si no se conocen entre sí,
26:00¿cómo es que coinciden todas las declaraciones?
26:57No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
26:58No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
27:03Y para toda mi vida.
27:12Entonces, ver qué pasa.
27:22Es cierto que el testimonio de Gabriel es muy sólido,
27:25es muy coherente,
27:26but he will not come to Spain to give declarations,
27:30he will do it by videoconferencing.
27:36I always have to be partidary of doing presencial.
27:39Here there was a problem.
27:40The problem was the encounter with the aggressor,
27:43which was very violent.
27:44The circumstances that he thought of Yara
27:47was that he was close to him.
27:48If he could meet with him in a room,
27:51in some place, he would have aterrable.
27:54Good morning there in the US.
27:56This is the National High Court speaking,
27:58and the judge would like you to state your full name aloud, please.
28:02Gabrielle Nicole Vega.
28:05Si la víctima prestó una declaración sólida, coherente,
28:07como el testimonio que prestó en su día ante la NBC,
28:11puede acabar en condena.
28:12Pero si no lo hace, es más difícil.
28:18Do you swear to tell the truth?
28:20Yes.
28:22Responde, en primer lugar,
28:23a las preguntas que le va a formular la señora fiscal.
28:26Hola, venía, señoría.
28:27¿Puede contar al tribunal
28:29qué es lo que usted recuerda de esta noche
28:32del 2 de noviembre de 2013?
28:35Yeah.
28:36So I had fallen asleep, and at one point, I don't know how long I was asleep, but I had
28:41woken up.
28:45No one was in the room, and I was very confused, but I knew I should go to the bathroom.
28:51So I opened the bathroom door, and I saw Nicole, Ashley, and Manuel in the shower together.
28:58And so I closed the door when I saw them, and the three of them came out of the bathroom.
29:07And I went in to use the toilet.
29:25And I went in to use the toilet.
29:29And when I was sitting on the toilet, I was facing the door.
29:33And I didn't lock the door.
29:44And all I remember is Manuel coming in.
29:53And after that, the only thing I remember is him forcing me to perform oral sex on him.
29:59And then he pushed my head and I fell this way.
30:02And that was the only thing I remembered until I woke up the next morning.
30:11La aversión siempre ha sido idéntica y constante de cómo sucedieron los hechos.
30:16¿Usted tenía algún tipo de malestar físico en ese momento que usted se despierta?
30:23Yes, when I woke up the next morning.
30:26I had pain in my abdomen, my lower abdomen.
30:31And I was extremely sore in my anal region.
30:36And I had bruises on my knees.
30:41Solo, Matisse, cuando le ha preguntado el Ministerio Fiscal sobre las zonas que tenía dolor, ha referido usted a la
30:47zona anal, y luego ha dicho la parte baja del abdomen, ¿se refería usted a la zona vaginal?
30:51Yes.
30:53La vi muy contundente, muy emotiva, porque ella tuvo que revivir la situación.
30:57Y Gabriel, pues yo creo que fue muy clara y precisa, narrando y poniendo en conocimiento de la sala.
31:04No solo el tema de cómo habían sido los hechos, sino la emotividad de ese momento y el momento de
31:10estar declarando en el juzgado.
31:12Detrás de la defensa.
31:15Cuando usted volvió a España, ¿fue al médico a que le revisaran las heridas que usted dice que tenía?
31:21No, no fui al doctor, pero también he hablado.
31:26Quiero ser clara, no sabía la lengua.
31:29No sabía cómo decir la palabra rape en español, así que nunca fui.
31:37Nada más, señoría.
31:39Buenas tardes, Gabriel. ¿Estos hechos afectaron su relación con otros hombres en la actualidad y en el pasado?
31:49Sí, lo he estado.
31:52Yo creo que es muy difícil tener ninguna relación intima con los hombres.
31:57No he estado en una relación real con ningún hombre desde entonces.
32:00Y creo que se correlaciona directamente a esto.
32:05Muchas gracias. No hay más puntos, señoría.
32:11Ahora voy a preguntarles sobre el futuro.
32:15¿Qué sueñas de lo que sueñas?
32:17¿Qué sueñas de lo que sueñas?
32:22¿Qué sueñas de lo que sueñas?
32:24Estoy muy emocionada con la idea de tener una vida muy simple.
32:32Y me ha conocido en mi vida muy simple.
32:38La verdad es que yo tengo que tener una hija de la vida mucho.
32:39No, no.
32:39Si yo tengo un petro al futuro.
32:41¿Qué?
32:42Al gato, mi padre, mi padre.
32:43Es un pequeño pequeño pequeño pequeño, pero...
32:44Pero es como...
32:46...me estoy allí.
32:48...air en la ciudad de caer.
32:50Están fuera,
32:51...o con mi padre,
32:52...lo con mi padre,
32:54Justo con tomar fotos.
32:58Cada día,
32:59all day, like, paint, like, do the things that I want to do.
33:06As I think even further into the future, like,
33:10if I meet someone and I fall in love
33:12and I'm lucky enough to have a baby one day...
33:36I just feel like I'll be able to know that I did the best I could
33:42to make sure that the world is a little bit safer.
33:55The first day of the trial against the tourist guide
33:58of Sevilla, accused of sexually sexually
34:00to North American students in the trips that he organized.
34:04In this case, we have two witnesses,
34:05which are the two girls who were with Gabriel Vega
34:08and Manuel Blancovela in the room where the fact happened.
34:24I have Ashley, you're with me.
34:28Very good.
34:29Well, I'll give you the word in first place to the fiscal officer.
34:33Good afternoon.
34:35With the good news, Mr.
34:37You will declare what you can remember
34:40of a night in which you shared
34:43a hotel room in Tanger with Gabriel Vega.
34:48That is correct.
34:49And also with Nicole.
34:52That is correct.
34:53Yes.
35:06We were staying in a room together.
35:08The three of us.
35:12And the three of us met up that week when we got back to Salamanca.
35:27And I started asking them about that night, and I was just like,
35:30do you guys remember?
35:33Like, like, he came into the room, and then, like,
35:36I don't really remember anything.
35:37And, like, before I had mentioned something, like, Nicole was like,
35:42I don't remember anything.
35:47And I remember asking Ashley.
35:54I remember he was in the bathroom,
35:57and she told me he was in the bathroom with me for 30 minutes.
36:02And I was like, well, I think I was raped.
36:05And it was just, like, silent.
36:10Because I think they realized what had happened.
36:18We never talked about it again after.
36:22Ever.
36:26What do you remember this night?
36:30I remember we were in Morocco,
36:34and we stayed in the hotel,
36:37and then the leader of the organization, Manuel,
36:41he came up to the room,
36:43and he got champagne for us.
36:47Then we, we drank the champagne,
36:50and then hung out in the room with Manuel.
37:01I do, but I don't remember what they were.
37:04I do remember him being flirtatious with the three of us,
37:10and asking us some questions,
37:12but I don't remember specifically what was happening at that time.
37:18At that time, Gabby was getting mad at us
37:21because she expressed interest in Manuel.
37:26Nicole and I went to bed,
37:27and the last thing that I remember,
37:29she was in the bathroom with Manuel.
37:44I feel like I have a memory of them entering the bathroom.
38:04No, I do not remember that.
38:08No, I don't remember.
38:22I don't remember.
38:24No.
38:32I found out about it years later.
38:35I didn't see it until it was on the today's show years later.
38:38No more questions, ladies.
38:40Well, thank you very much.
38:43We have finished the testimony
38:45and we can cut the communication.
38:49It's been seen for the sentence.
38:51They can come out.
38:53These testimonies are contradictory
38:56in part with the version
38:58that the main victim of the events
39:00is Gabriel Vega.
39:01They are their versions
39:02with respect to Gabriel.
39:05The murder of the two girls
39:06has not brought any other witnesses.
39:08If the court has in mind
39:11these reports of the witnesses,
39:14it may end affecting
39:17the good of the accused.
39:19It would be tremendous
39:21that this man,
39:22and sorry for the expression vulgar,
39:24if this man was from Rositas.
39:38So it's the day after the trial,
39:40and I've been thinking
39:43about what Ashley said during the trial
39:46and how angry she seemed being there.
39:52I mean, I definitely think
39:54she believes I wasn't raped.
39:55I have suffered for years because of that.
39:58I've literally suffered for 11 years
40:00because of what happened,
40:01and somebody can walk into a room and say,
40:06well, they expressed interest.
40:10And?
40:12And?
40:13The concept of consent
40:17is so clear.
40:19I was completely
40:24incoherent.
40:25I could not stand on my own.
40:30And I was attacked.
40:37And I was attacked.
40:40Where is the consent in that?
40:49I was attacked.
40:49After the declaration,
40:52I put in contact with her,
40:53I wrote,
40:54I told her how he did the judgment
40:56and my feelings,
40:57and that we just stayed waiting for the sentence,
41:00that I had the confidence
41:02that it was condemnating
41:03and I also said
41:03that for the of the case,
41:05that there would be an absolute
41:07of Manuel Blanco,
41:13I don't want to appeal whatever happens I can't keep doing this and I can do it I could do
41:26it
41:27I'm capable of it but I don't want to do it anymore
41:35in my heart I know that she's going to be the one that takes this guy down
41:39he's going to be sorry he ever met her that he ever saw her name I'm sure he already is
41:45sorry
41:46and then I think to myself if it doesn't go how we want it to go there's going to be
41:51a lot of other
41:52girls that see this show that we're filming today and they're going to you know exposing him they're
41:59gonna be victims that we don't know about and I'm sure some of those girls will be willing to put
42:05him through the process I want him to be put away I want him to be off the streets and
42:13no longer a
42:15threat to women but I also I want this to be done for her like she does it I care
42:24deeply about her
42:25and she does not deserve to have to relive this over and over and over again like she deserves to
42:31be free of it and she's not going to be free until until after this trial he completely affected how
42:41she's able how all of us are able to move through the world and our mental health and yeah I
42:47just hope
42:47that there's justice in that regard that he's able to be recognized as a rapist and recognized
42:57as a predator and that we get some sort of closure in that regard I am very cynical when
43:06it comes to women receiving justice for these kinds of crimes I hope that it does it does go somewhere
43:15I think that he'll be found guilty I think he should probably spend the rest of his life in
43:20prison I think a lot of women know that it's incredibly difficult to get convictions so I at
43:28least hope that this case can bring more public notoriety to him because he deserves it because he's a
43:33terrible person I'm not afraid because I'm telling the truth he's the one who should be afraid
43:41and I think that he is there are people like this out there and it can be so hard to
43:47to really accept
43:48that because if you really understood how many monsters are out there like oh my god you wouldn't
43:55you wouldn't want to leave your house this idea that it doesn't happen in my world I think needs to
44:02be
44:02reconsidered because it happens more than we want to acknowledge I have to believe that he'll be held
44:09responsible because I think men keep doing this thinking that they won't be something has to
44:17change we're here because we aren't afraid of him there was nothing special about you you were just
44:24somebody who chose your victims because we were vulnerable and because you thought that we would be
44:29quiet about it and you were wrong I think that he knows that it's like that this is the end
44:36of the story for
44:58him hi hi good morning Gabriel I have a feeling do you have a feeling what feeling is it a
45:06little
