Overview

  • Civil Police confirmed on Jan. 30 that a judge authorized Pedro Arthur Turra’s preventive detention with no set end date.
  • Search warrants executed at his residence led to the seizure of knives, a brass knuckle and items police say were used to intimidate victims.
  • A young woman told investigators he tortured her with a taser and previously forced her to drink alcohol as a minor, with video evidence provided to police.
  • Authorities are probing four occurrences tied to Turra: the January assault that left a 16-year-old in a coma, a June 2025 plaza fight, supplying alcohol to a minor, and a July 2025 traffic-related assault.
  • The victim remains in a deep coma as investigators await the IML forensic report, while the family’s lawyer asks that the case be treated as attempted homicide following an earlier procedural denial of preventive detention.
