Overview
- The court case that María Fernanda Callejón filed against her ex-husband, Ricky Diotto, has opened its hearing phase with six sessions scheduled and the couple’s 10-year-old daughter listed in the proceedings.
- Following the first session, Callejón said the day was highly technical yet productive and described reliving the events as traumatic.
- Diotto, who denies abuse, alleged on television that their daughter spent many mornings alone in a hotel room between December and February and said he is weighing a custody filing.
- He also claimed the case label shifted from threats and injuries to attempted minor injuries and said Callejón once offered to drop the complaint if he gave her the house.
- Callejón’s lawyer said the judge kept the case under Argentina’s gender-violence rubric for minor injuries with threats and noted that legal labels can change as evidence is heard.
