Overview
- One week after the crash in San Isidro, published security-camera images and audio show Pais’s Honda crossing the Sáenz Peña and El Cano tracks while the barriers were down and the train horn sounded seconds before impact.
- A preliminary autopsy reported that Pais died of a severe traumatic encephalocranial injury consistent with the force of the collision rather than a later medical complication.
- Judicial investigators have opened a criminal inquiry and cited director José María Muscari as a witness to help establish the timeline of events that night.
- The play El divorcio del año suspended performances, enabled ticket refunds and faces an uncertain future as cast members, colleagues and Pais’s son Benicio have publicly mourned her loss.
- Unverified claims that Pais was using a cellphone circulated online and were publicly disputed by cast members, and the case has refocused attention on level-crossing safety in Zona Norte and possible operational or legal consequences.
