The Quintanar de la Orden, Toledo, Crime: Case Closed After the Death of the Perpetrator, Her Brother-in-Law The court determined that the victim's husband, who suffered more than 40 stab wounds, only committed the crime of accessory after the fact. There will be no trial for the murder of Isabel Laureana Cebrián, who died at age 59 after being stabbed multiple times in Quintanar de la Orden (Toledo) on January 11, 2016. The Court of First Instance and Preliminary Investigation Number 1 of this town (population 11,500) has ordered the case closed, as José Antonio Carrión, the perpetrator and Isabel's brother-in-law, committed suicide in July 2018 in the Ocaña prison where he was being held in pretrial detention. During the investigation, the Civil Guard and the Toledo Prosecutor's Office consistently maintained that José Antonio needed the help of his brother, Francisco Javier, Isabel's husband, to commit the crime. However, the husband, who changed his story to the Civil Guard, has always maintained his innocence, although the evidence and clues presented by the investigators of the Judicial Police of the Toledo Command pointed in another direction. Now the court has determined that Francisco Javier, who spent nine months in prison, only committed the crime of concealment. That is, he concealed the facts and the circumstances in which they occurred, as confirmed to Europa Press by Juan Justo, the murderer's lawyer. "Since the perpetrator has died, the court would not have a legal obligation to inform the justice system of what happened, because the husband would not have committed any crime," Justo argues. He adds that none of the various prosecuting parties involved in the case objected to this judicial decision, adopted in mid-October. Justo explains that the basis for this judicial decision is found in Article 454 of the Penal Code, which exempts from criminal liability spouses or partners in a relationship of affection, ascendants or descendants, as well as siblings by blood or adoption. Following this judicial decision, the Government Delegation has removed Isabel Laureana Cebrián from the count of women murdered for this reason, "once the judicial proceedings against her husband for concealment were completed." This action was taken after receiving information on the legal proceedings provided by the Observatory of Domestic and Gender Violence of the General Council of the Judiciary. The events took place between 4:00 and 6:00 p.m. on January 11, 2016, at the home of Isabel and Francisco Javier, who worked with José Antonio at a family-owned business management firm in the town. The three were so close that José Antonio had keys to the couple's house at number 1 Moral Street. According to his lawyer, he was not undergoing physical psychiatric treatment at the time, although José Antonio suffered from a "very significant and severe, but undiagnosed" depressive disorder. It was the husband who alerted emergency services after discovering his wife's body. She was a beloved figure in Quintanar, where she had served as a PP councilwoman and taught catechism to children. She had been stabbed more than forty times with a single knife, which the Civil Guard recovered from the hallway floor. She had been murdered in the kitchen, the only place in the entire house where there were signs of Isabel having defended herself, while the rest of the house was tidy. The knife was found next to another, both from the kitchen, which had been placed parallel to each other, intentionally, according to the Civil Guard, perhaps to mislead investigators and support the alibi of a possible robbery, which later fell apart. Both knives had hairs from the victim on them and were covered in blood, but there was no bloodstains underneath either one. Therefore, the Civil Guard concluded that both knives had been deliberately placed there. Furthermore, biological traces of her brother-in-law were found under Isabel's fingernails, indicating that she had tried to defend herself. Similarly, traces of her DNA were also found on the sweater and shirt he was wearing on the day of the crime, suggesting that she had hugged him. Five days later, the judge of the Court of First Instance and Preliminary Investigation Number 1 of Quintanar de la Orden ordered Francisco Javier to be held in pretrial detention without bail. He was provisionally charged with murder with the aggravating circumstance of kinship. #documentary #crime #spain
