“Why do you push yourself, if you just fucked it very rich”

The young woman decided to end her silence until this year through a video on her Instagram account, acknowledging that she reached the social network as a last resort.

“At first, I did not plan to make this video because I trusted the authorities and I trusted a process. I make this video because I am fed up, because I am tired and because I am afraid. And this is the last resort I have left … “, began her story, visibly shocked, by what she considered the scant response of the Mexican justice.

Shortly afterwards, in the registry, she links her abuser and the one whom she designates as her accomplice, Peña, in the events that occurred on March 14, 2020. According to Berriel, the face of Trivago asked her to accompany her to the trip in which other couples would go . According to the young woman, something told her not to go, but she decided to go because she wanted to give her relationship with Gonzalo a new chance.

After swimming in a pool, having a few drinks and enjoying, dinner time will have been the origin of a crime in a certain way, I sense.

“There was a moment when the talk turned sexual and they started talking about threesomes”, he assures. They asked him if he had already done any. “I told them no and I started to feel a little uncomfortable. By that time, I was already drunk “Daniela admits in the video.

Berriel relates that he decided to go to bed because the next day he would be fishing. They offered him a room with two beds, which he would share with Gonzalo Peña. However this and Ojeda, had already gone after her.

“Not two minutes passed (after arriving at the piece) and I had Gonzalo and Eduardo touching me… They never asked me. I stood up and (seeing) an armchair in front of the beds, I lay down on the armchair. The only one who started following me around the room was Eduardo. Gonzalo stayed in bed. And Eduardo arrived, touched my leg and told me not to be ‘tight’ (cartridge). I got up and went to bed. He followed me and I told him please no, leave me alone “.

Daniela assures that at that moment she did not feel fear, because she had experienced other situations in which she had not been listened to after her first “No”.

“After eight” NOs “(sic), Eduardo told me: ‘What the hell to beg you, or that you were so hot’, and he left the room”. Everything happened in Ojeda’s house. His girlfriend was in another room, sleeping, as he excused himself early for an earache.

It seemed that everything had ended with Ojeda leaving the room. Gonzalo fell, apparently asleep, on the bed. Daniela thought about resting after that attempted abuse. However, the worst was not over.

And I fell asleep. I woke up because they were already penetrating me, they were raping me and Eduardo was raping me and, when I realized it was him, I entered ‘shock‘”. The young woman cries inconsolably when she remembers the rape of which she claims she was a victim, on a nightmare trip.

“I was able to become aware when he said something so disgusting to me. He said, ‘Where do you want me to come?’ And that’s when I realized that I was being raped. (I) got rid of him and went to Gonzalo’s bed. (Eduardo) came to pull me hard, to tell me that he hadn’t finished yet, that she was rude and he started hitting me ”.

Gonzalo Peña, according to the testimony, would have witnessed everything but without intervening. The situation would have become so surreal that Ojeda complained that he had invited Daniela, whom he considered “rude” for not allowing herself to be raped.

“Gonzalo stood up, angry, and said: ‘You bastard, why are you shoving yourself if you just fucked her really good!’. There I realized that I was in front of two pigs and I felt very scared ”, says Daniela in the record of more than 10 minutes.

He did not explain how he left the place, because he did not know anyone, but he assures that the two subjects spoke for a moment in the bathroom of the room and then left with a different attitude, after the reported rape, physical assault and complicity in this .

The capture of Ojeda and the search for the face of Trivago

Daniela’s video had social and legal repercussions on the people she pointed out for rape.

Weeks later, he made another record in which he confirmed the arrest of Eduardo Ojeda. Since then, he has received messages of support on his social networks, but also questions from those who consider that he is lying.

His lawyer, meanwhile, has attended television programs to give details of the upcoming criminal process.

In the morning TV Azteca’s “Venga la feliz”, he confirmed both the capture of Ojeda, carried out on March 8 (3 days after the record uploaded by the victim), and the arrest warrant against Peña.

“Gonzalo already has an arrest warrant against him for the crime of rape. Gonzalo is already being wanted by the country’s authorities… he is a co-author of the crime of rape. The penal code of the state of Guerrero contemplates a penalty of 12 to 24 years. His arrest will be requested through Interpol “, said Xavier Olea, quoted by media such as El Espectador.

Indeed, the Mexican media El Universal confirmed that the face of telenovelas and Trivago, Gonzalo Peña, is being sought by the local justice, without knowing, until the closing of this article, his whereabouts and whether or not he came out. from Mexico.

“He is already being sought by the authorities of the country and around the world”, the referred newspaper cites a source close to the case, assuring that the actor has had an arrest warrant since the first weekend of last March.

However, Daniela has not stopped in her struggle to continue denouncing who she points out as her rapist and his accomplice.

The calls for justice are still valid on her Instagram account, among others, where she offers support to other women who have been victims of the same abuse and still do not have the courage to report for fear of their aggressors.

“No means no” #JusticeParaDany, is part of the call to do justice in her case, promoting the same process for other women in her situation.

“Today by this means, I tell you that I am afraid, since Eduardo has influences and I am afraid that they will release him. I have already lived a year in fear and I don’t want to live any longer (in fear). So, I ask the authorities to do their job. I, as a victim, did everything they ask us to do. I ask you to do justice “.

On March 15, it was confirmed that Eduardo Ojeda, the main accused in the rape accusation against Daniela Berriel, will remain in prison while the trial stage arrives.

Meanwhile, the Trivago actor who invited the public with his typical phrase “Are you looking for a hotel?”, Is today wanted by the justice, remaining a fugitive from the charges for his alleged complicity in the facts.
