On Wednesday, after ten days of hearings, the Justice sentenced to 7 and 4 years in prison to the men who drugged and raped two girls aged 14 and 13 in Punta Arenas on June 24, 2019.

Specifically, it is about Luis Sepúlveda Martínez and Camilo Vargas Gamín, who also received 541 and 61 extra days in prison for the crimes of micro-trafficking and being an accessory to it, respectively.

As proven in the trial, the events occurred after the two minors drove in Sepúlveda Martínez’s vehicle to Vargas Gamín’s home to watch a football match that faced La Roja with Uruguay.

When the television arrived it did not work, so they decided to “start taxiing.” It was in this context that the men served alcoholic beverages to those affected and the homeowner gave them cocaine hydrochloride.

After that, Vargas Gamín sexually abused the 14-year-old girl and Sepúlveda Martínez raped the 13-year-old. The situation was denounced the afternoon of the following day and in a search of the house in question, the PDI found cocaine.

At the beginning of the trial, both convicts waived their right to remain silent and although they admitted to having had sexual contact with the minors, They asserted that there was consent on their part, which was not accepted by the judges of the Oral Criminal Court.

Although they were achieved effective prison sentences, in line with what the Prosecutor’s Office requestedLess than half of what the plaintiff lawyers of the “Your Rights” legal representation program requested was obtained, 15 years in the case of Sepúlveda Martínez.
