It took 6 years to finally put this case to rest.  The details of this beautiful girl's murder are beyond belief .  Surgical removal of all her organs except her liver were what was found at the scene.  

Prosecutors asked for 13 yrs ore and that should have been what they received bottom line.  Very sad indeed

Sentence Disputed for Femicide of the young woman Aira Guerra

Bocharel Flower Q., Special for LaPrensa | DAVID, Chiriquí 26 Sep 2018 - 08: 00h

Topics: Chiriquí Feminicidio

After learning of the sentence of 17 years in prison for Rolando Samudio Candanedo and eight years for his uncle, Álvaro Samudio Contreras, and the acquittal of Edilberto Moreno and Edwin Ávila, who were called to trial for the femicide of the young university student Aira Guerra , the voices against that decision were immediate.

"It seems that the life of women, for Panamanian justice, is worthless." It is not possible that for a crime as horrific as the one that occurred to the young Aira Guerra to set free any and for the others to be sentenced to such a low prison term "Said Tania Wald, President of the International Fund for Social Security for Women and Children.

Wald also lamented that women "are not supportive in demanding justice before judges and magistrates".

The afternoon of Monday, September 24, they heard about the conviction in this case.with the signature of magistrates Carlos Cuestas, Elzebir Troya and Asunción Castillo,

For this decision, the relatives of the university student, through their lawyers Carlos Carrillo and Arturo González Baso, will lodge an appeal, since they consider that the sentences are "very low" for the atrocious crime that was perpetrated on the night of November 30, 2012.ttps://twitter.com/PGN_PANAMA/status/1044371420132909056

The Public Ministry will appeal.
