Overview
- The Audiencia Provincial de Palma sentenced Vítor Aníbal Temporao Martins on Friday, May 29, 2026, to prisión permanente revisable for the September 25, 2024 killing in Colònia de Sant Jordi.
- Judges and a jury found he threw the 74‑year‑old victim to the ground and delivered repeated heel strikes to her head for about fifteen minutes while she could not defend herself.
- The court said the victim, Swiss national Erika Helene Rohrig, was in a state of extreme fragility and took fentanyl and tramadol, which the jury judged made her especially vulnerable.
- The sentence includes a ten‑year ban on living in Mallorca and on contacting the victim’s daughter after release and orders €300,000 in moral damages to the daughter.
- Local reporting notes this ruling is one of a small number of prisión permanente revisable sentences in Mallorca and underlines the court’s view that the crime was driven by domination and contempt toward women.
