Marcela Aranda, a theologian who was the first complainant of the priest Renato Poblete, accepted the reparatory economic agreement proposed by the Society of Jesus, although she was “disappointed” by how the order approached it.
To reach this agreement, there were negotiations for more than a year with a commission formed by the Jesuits, where Aranda was represented by the lawyer Juan Pablo Hermosilla, and which began after the investigation of the Company that verified the abuses of Poblete, who died in 2010.
According to the newspaper La Tercera, the first approach was in October 2019, when she asked the Jesuits to pay for various medical expenses, such as gynecological, dental, therapies and medications, but the order was denied.
“We had several conversations, about ten times, to try to make understandable what was the meaning of what I was asking for, but a series of excuses were made, that the company cannot take charge of someone for life. I felt revictimized, like they paid me, like they were doing me a favor, “she recalled.
The order offered him, as a counterproposal, an amount drawn up according to tranches, a kind of “standardized” scale of amounts of money that depend on the severity of the abuses. Aranda was offered the highest.
In June he decided to accept the agreement, but “it was a terrible disappointment, I was distressed. Money does not repair your life, no matter how important the figure, because the feeling you have is: ‘Look, I give you this, no longer bother more. ‘It’s a feeling of abandonment. “
“I prefer not to say it, because this cataloging of the abuses left people very damaged, by abuses classified as minor,” he said.
