Morena Rial Denies Gran Hermano Casting From Prison, Begins Administrative Job

A new lawyer is reported to be preparing a cassation appeal for house arrest following the earlier court denial.

Overview

  • Rial issued an official communiqué from the prison stating she did not apply, send a casting, or authorize any contact with the production of Gran Hermano.
  • She has started working in the admissions area at Prisión de Magdalena in an administrative role with shifts from 8:00 to 14:00 and 15:00 to 18:00.
  • Her request for house arrest was rejected by judicial authorities, so she remains in custody as the case proceeds.
  • Alejandro Cipolla resigned as her attorney after years on the case, leaving her representation in transition.
  • Media reports identify Marcelo D’Angelo as the new lawyer and say he plans a cassation appeal seeking domiciliary detention, which commentators describe as having limited prospects.
