Overview
- De Vido, who was moved late Monday from the Ezeiza prison to his home in Zárate, began serving the rest of his term under electronic monitoring.
- Sala III of the Federal Chamber of Criminal Cassation reversed a prior denial and granted house arrest after an April 1 cardiac emergency that required angioplasty and a stent.
- The ruling found Ezeiza’s Unit 19 could not meet his needs, noting no 24-hour on-site medical guard, specialists reachable only by phone, and missing drugs needed to reverse anticoagulation in a crisis.
- The execution judge set rules for compliance that include an ankle monitor, periodic checks, advance notice of medical appointments, and a ban on leaving the country.
- Families of the Once victims publicly condemned the measure, while De Vido continues serving a four-year conviction for administration fraud linked to the 2012 crash.
