Neighbors of the pensioner who burned and killed her son in Llavallol threaten to attack her with stones

In the early morning of March 19, EG, 73-year-old retiree, set fire to her 45-year-old son while he was sedated on one of the beds in his home in Llavallol.

I didn’t know I did.

“She was not aware of her actions “, determined the official psychiatric examinations ordered by the prosecutor Marcela juan, head of UFI No. 16 of Lomas de Zamora, who a few hours after the attack and when the burned man was still fighting for his life, resolved to release her.

The official considered that there was no procedural risk but, above all, justified her decision based on what she was able to learn about the harsh history of violence and mistreatment that lay behind: her own son was her perpetrator.

Two days later, the man – identified as CAG – died in the Gandulfo hospital after suffering burns in 90% of the body. However, the prosecutor kept the mother’s freedom and subsequent psychiatric studies would end up arguing that resolution. Thus, the retiree was able to stay indoors.

Since then her life remained hell.

As they could tell Infobae from sources with access to the cause, EG and her husband have suffered for several days a series of threats from neighbors for the crime and for the fact that the Justice released her.

“They want to stone her house, they warn her that they will call the media, they harass her day and night and yell at her murderer. The lady is having a really bad time”, they revealed to this medium.

What they probably do not know in the neighborhood is that the expertise established that the retired, “She was a victim of violence, suffered from post-traumatic stress, could not understand what she was doing,” and she doused her son with alcohol and then set him on fire as a reaction to the violence he endured for years.

Although many were aware that CAG suffered from paranoid schizophrenia and was especially abusive to his mother.

Also that he had to take medication and that when he didn’t, the situation turned violent.

“The neighbors are organizing an escrache to summon television channels. The lady is a victim. She was like a pressure cooker and she reacted to so many years of abuse and of being in the care of a psychiatric person who was violent towards her. That clearly had to affect her ”, indicated a judicial source.

Reports indicated that EG suffered an emotional crisis with a notable lack of sleep that affected her faculties. They concluded that “she could not understand the criminality of the act” and “the violence and threats exerted by her son affected his integrity.”

In that sense, the retired, “She had problems concentrating, sleeping and, according to the Victim Assistance Office that also interviewed her, she has characteristics of a woman who was a victim of gender violence with“ naturalization, guilt and justification for those acts of violence that her son exercised against her,” added the official report.

The horror was unleashed after a new CAG psychotic break that day, the man began to insult and chase his mother around the house.

In fact, he took a knife and threatened her. It was then that the retired couple decided to call 911. They feared that something more serious could happen.

A few minutes later, troops from the 4th Police Station arrived, controlled the situation and asked the medical personnel of the Lomas de Zamora Emergency Service to review the aggressor.

The professionals decided to sedate the patient and leave him asleep in the hope that everything would stay there.

EG urged them to take him to a hospital but there was no case. In seconds, everything changed dramatically.

While the troops were at the door of the home to leave, the retired woman saw that her son was sleeping as a result of the medicines they gave him, he doused it with alcohol and set it on fire. Her husband, seeing the scene, ran out to call the troops who were about to leave the scene.

The woman was apprehended and when prosecutor Juan learned more about the story, she was released. Her son, Justice discovered, had subjected her to mistreatment, even beatings, since he was 17 years old.

The sources in the file highlighted the lack of response from the police and the doctors, that if they had complied with EG’s request, the situation could have been avoided. For now, the prosecutor Marcela Juan is considering asking for the dismissal.

Regarding the neighborhood situation, the prosecution of the case urged the woman and her partner to make a report of harassment.
