Overview
- The provincial court in Palma sentenced the defendant to 13.5 years after he admitted the rape in a plea deal Wednesday.
- The judgment orders €20,000 in restitution to the girl, who remains under IMAS custody, the island’s social services authority.
- Doctors at Hospital Son Espases confirmed a pregnancy that did not go to term and genital injuries that lasted more than a month, and reports say she now shows trauma symptoms.
- After the mother alerted Policía Nacional, the UFAM family-and-women unit investigated, arrested the suspect, and a judge ordered him held before trial.
- The sentence was delivered in open court and declared final, and outlets differ slightly on the man’s age and assault count while agreeing on the core facts and outcome.
