Morena Rial Sentenced to Three Years as Judge Considers Conditional Release

A court-ordered psychological evaluation and the prosecutor’s formal opinion will determine if she can leave electronic-monitored house arrest to serve the sentence outside prison.

Overview

  • On Thursday, July 2, 2026 the Tribunal Oral en lo Criminal Nº7 of San Isidro homologated a juicio abreviado and Judge María Coelho imposed a three-year prison sentence against Morena Rial.
  • Rial’s lawyers immediately asked for excarcelation under the liberty-conditional regime and the judge ordered a psychological peritaje while she requested the opinion of fiscal adjunto Patricio Ferrari before ruling.
  • The influencer remains in house arrest at a family home, monitored by an electronic anklet and subject to court rules including a ban on leaving the country and limits on social media use.
  • The sentence stems from accusations that include robbery, theft, threats and coercion, with prosecutors saying the central incident occurred on January 18, 2025 in Villa Adelina where Rial allegedly drove the getaway vehicle.
  • A separate oral trial linked to robberies and threats involving two ex-partners is set to start on September 21 in Córdoba, and the prosecutor’s view plus the psychological report are likely to shape Rial’s short-term liberty and custody arrangements.
