On the other hand, it was alleged that the woman provided goods to him. He gave doses of ethylene glycol alternately, saying that it should cure the spots on the face, and mixing it with orange juice for breakfast.
Oviedo’s lawyer, Torres, tried to show that, given the statements, Aquino repeatedly sexually assaulted his client, claiming that this was a way of defending himself by himself.
The lawyer also argued that it was he who actually bought the ingredients for the deadly concoction that ended his life. He even asked his client not to be “demonized” at a particular moment and said he hoped the decision would be based on sound judgment.
