The thing about stories like Marianas is that they never leave you. You hear them once, and they stick in the back of your head like a splinter, refusing to be ignored. Her case wasn't just about one girl, one crime, or one set of bad decisions, it was a mirror of something much bigger, something way too common in a place where women's voices are often brushed off, ignored, or silenced. Mariana had tried to do the right thing. She had tried, over and over again.

to report Diego. She wasn't silent about the abuse he put her through. She wasn't pretending it wasn't happening. She actually showed courage that most adults struggle to find, because it takes guts to stand up against the person you're emotionally tied to, especially when that person has power over you, when they've hurt you not just physically, but emotionally and mentally too. But each time she went to the authorities, they dismissed her. They treated her claims like nothing more than noise. And that's the kind of detail that makes you angry, because you can't help but think, if they had listened, if they had just taken her seriously the first time, maybe she would still be here today. Her family started to suspect that

there was more to this silence. They believed it wasn't just negligence, it was protection. Diego, after all, wasn't some random guy with no connections. Everyone in town knew that some of his relatives were part of the local police. That fact wasn't hidden, it was practically common knowledge. And once you know that, it's hard not to think that maybe his ties to law enforcement were what kept him untouchable for so long. And then came the suspicious timing. Right around the period when the case started getting attention, Diego conveniently moved to Mexico City. To the family, that wasn't a coincidence. It looked a lot like running away, like trying trying to disappear before the walls closed in.

While Diego enjoyed his freedom in the Capitol, Teresa was stuck in jail. For months, she sat there while her case slowly crawled through the system. But eventually, something shifted. She decided to make a deal with the prosecutors. Instead of dragging things out, she agreed to plead guilty in exchange for some legal benefits. Basically, she wanted to trade information for a lighter sentence. It wasn't just about her taking the blame, it was also about what she revealed. As part of the deal, Teresa provided information that pointed directly at Diego as the mastermind.

She admitted that he was the one who had pushed her, convinced her, and even guided her into committing the crime. Suddenly, the narrative shifted. Teresa wasn't just the attacker, she was also a puppet, acting under Diego's orders. By August of 2023, Teresa's sentence came down. A judge declared her guilty as the direct perpetrator of Marianna's murder. Officially, she was convicted of Homicidio Deloso, intentional homicide, and sentenced to 10 years in prison. Some media outlets reported it as 13 years, but the official line seemed to settle on 10. 10 years. Just 10.

for taking a young girl's life. That number alone sparked debates and outrage, because for many, it felt like a slap on the wrist. But the real bombshell came after. Investigations revealed that Diego hadn't just been casually involved, he had actively instigated the entire thing. Witnesses came forward, saying they had seen Diego hand Teresa the weapon she would use. He gave her detailed instructions on how to carry out the attack. This wasn't spontaneous or emotional, it was calculated. He planned it.

One witness even said that during a meeting, Diego promised Teresa that once the deed was done, he would help her escape to Brazil. He painted her a picture of a getaway life, far away from the consequences. Except, of course, he never kept that promise. After the crime, he left her stranded, abandoned, and on her own. Armed with this new evidence, investigators dug deeper. They obtained court orders to track the communications between Teresa and Diego. And what they found was undeniable, there was a flood of messages exchanged before, during,

and after the attack. Conversations that tied him directly to the crime. That was the nail in the coffin. With the evidence stacked against him, an arrest warrant for Diego was finally issued. But there was one problem, by then, he had already left Mexico. He had gone exactly where he once promised to take Teresa, Brazil. This is where the case took an international turn. Mexican authorities coordinated with Interpol, the International Criminal Police Organization.

After a long operation, Diego was finally tracked down. On October 17, 2024, in Brazil, he was arrested. It was a huge win for Mariana's family, for the prosecutors, and for everyone who had been demanding justice for so long. The Mexican Attorney General's office quickly confirmed the news. Diego was in custody. He was extradited to Mexico under heavy police guard. They put him on a plane, escorted by officers, and when he landed at the airport, he was immediately taken straight into the judicial system. Six days later, on October 23rd, Diego stood in front of a judge. The hearing lasted four long hours.

His defense attorney tried to play semantics, arguing that Diego wasn't the intellectual author of the crime but merely an instigator. In other words, he wanted the court to believe that Diego had only suggested the idea to Teresa, not actually orchestrated it. But the judge wasn't buying it. She ruled that Diego would face trial as the suspected intellectual author of Mariana's Femicide. And because of the seriousness of the charges, and the clear risk that he might try to escape again, she ordered preventive detention. No bail. No freedom while waiting

for trial. He would remain behind bars while the prosecutors completed their complementary investigation. By January 2025, the latest updates confirmed that Diego was still in prison. The prosecutors had been granted four months to complete their investigation, and the next hearing was scheduled for February 24, 2025. The clock was ticking, but at least this time, the system wasn't letting him walk free. Meanwhile, Marianna's family wasn't done fighting. Their lawyers were working on an appeal to change Teresa's conviction. They didn't think homicidio deloso was strong enough. They wanted it upgraded to Homicidio Califaccato, aggravated homicide. If successful, that could raise Teresa's sentence to anywhere between 15 and 50 years. As of January 22nd,

2025, though, there hadn't been any official updates in the Mexican media about whether that appeal had moved forward. This case, beyond the personal pain, sparked a bigger debate in Mexico. People were furious, not just at Diego and Teresa, but at the system that had failed Mariana from the start. Why hadn't her earlier complaints been taken seriously? Why did it take so long, and so much public pressure, for the authorities to act? Protests broke out, calling for justice for Mariana, but also for larger changes in the laws and in the way the system handles violence against women.

The country has been plagued with themicides for years, and each case that makes headlines becomes part of a larger outcry. Mariana's story became one of those cases that rallied people together. And at the heart of all this was a teenager, a girl who had endured almost two years in an abusive relationship, who finally found the courage to walk away and report her abuser, who tried to protect herself through legal channels. did what society always tells victims to do, speak up. She spoke up, but the system turned its back on her. In the end, her kindness and innocence didn't let her see the trap that Diego

had set. She couldn't imagine that someone she once trusted could go so far, could orchestrate something so cruel, so inhuman. Her story is a painful reminder of how far malice can reach, of how dark the human heart can get when it's poisoned by control, obsession, and violence. And that leaves us here, reflecting on everything. Teresa is serving her time, though many feel her sentence was far too light. Diego is finally behind bars, facing the weight of justice he managed to dodge for so long. But the question remains, do you think Teresa really got the punishment she deserved? Was ten years enough for ending a young life?

should it have been fifteen twenty or even fifty and as for diego what do you think was he just an instigator or the true mastermind who pulled the strings from the shadows the end
