Overview
- Judge Andrea Rodríguez Mentasti converted Morena Rial’s detention into preventive custody on Oct. 29–30, keeping her at Unidad 51 in Magdalena.
- The ruling says Rial missed required court appearances, failed to document psychological or psychiatric treatment, did not live at the stated address, and exposed her infant to risk.
- The court found a procedural risk of flight and revoked her excarceration following a request from San Isidro prosecutor Patricio Ferrari.
- Rial is processed for aggravated robbery, accused of participating in home burglaries including a Jan. 18 break-in in Villa Adelina detailed in the fiscal filing.
- Defense lawyer Alejandro Cipolla appealed and complained about conditions at the facility, seeking a transfer as the appellate chamber is expected to review the case within weeks according to local reports.
