Overview
- TOC 4 of Lomas de Zamora, which ruled Wednesday, sentenced Enzo Chamorro to life in prison for killing his ex-partner, Malena Soto.
- The court found that on January 20, 2025, in room 17 of the Satélite hotel in Ingeniero Budge, Soto was fatally slashed in the neck with a blade.
- Hotel alarms went off around 5:30 p.m., two cleaners entered the room, and they found Soto on the bathroom floor with a towel over her face and blood on the tiles.
- Investigators say Chamorro fled by jumping a locked gate and was arrested hours later at Pereyra Lucena and Estrada in central Lomas de Zamora.
- Judges convicted him of homicide aggravated by the relationship and by violence against a woman, a charge the defense sought to beat with an acquittal, and Soto’s family—she leaves a 5-year-old daughter—attended each step of the case.
