The hypotheses about Santos’ death
Santos was found lifeless on Monday morning in front of the house where he had lived together with Baiguera for about 10 years, owner of the accommodation. During the guarantee interrogation, the 69-year-old under investigation for manslaughter made use of the right not to answer, because according to the defense he was in no condition to provide explanations.
To the prosecutor, however, Baiguera would have said yes having given “two slaps” to the roommate who “had been drinking” and then dragged him out. First down the stairs of the house, then for another 20 meters along the driveway that leads to the street. After leaving him on the sidewalk, now lifeless, he is drove away without calling for help.
The autopsy that was carried out on the 36-year-old’s body found evidence of dragging, but no injuries capable of causing his death. Santos, however, had one cardiopulmonary infection poorly cared for which could have contributed to the death, which presumably occurred for other reasons.
