She fell from a fifth floor and died: doubts about her boyfriend's account

The death of Tamara Daniela Schiaffini, a 31-year-old woman who fell from the fifth floor of a hotel in Mendoza, has raised questions about the account provided by her partner, Daniel Gazzoti. The incident occurred during the early morning hours at room 502 of the Hotel Aguas del Corral. According to Gazzoti's initial statement, he tried to hold onto Tamara as she jumped from the window, but was unable to prevent her fall. However, investigators are still determining whether his version aligns with the evidence collected at the scene. The prosecutor, Oscar Mallá, has initiated a protocol for investigating possible femicides, though this does not confirm that Schiaffini was murdered nor that her partner is responsible. Forensic police are examining the room for clues to reconstruct the event, while other hotel guests' testimonies are being considered. A woman on the first floor reported hearing a loud impact around 3:58 AM and then a man rushing down the stairs saying 'no, no, no.' Gazzoti remains under arrest pending further legal proceedings. The main uncertainty lies in the minutes before the fall, whether it was a suicide, an accident, or if another person was involved.

Juan Ignacio Pierri, son of renowned Argentine lawyer Miguel Ángel Pierri, has spoken publicly for the first time about his role in a pivotal moment during the trial of Jorge Mangeri, accused of the murder of 16-year-old Ángeles Rawson. In August 2013, during a live interview with television host Leo Rosenwasser on Canal Metro, Pierri interrupted his father’s defense of Mangeri with the statement: “But dumbass, he killed Ángeles.” This remark became widely known and significantly altered public perception of the case. The incident occurred when Pierri was six years old. At the time, his father was representing Mangeri, who had been arrested for the murder of Ángeles Rawson. During the interview, Pierri's father claimed Mangeri was innocent. Before he could continue, his son cut him off with the accusation. The phrase immediately went viral and shifted the narrative around the case. In a recent interview with the program Puro Show on eltrece, Juan Ignacio explained that he did not know at the time why he made the comment. He stated that he had learned about the crime through media coverage, including appearances by journalist Eduardo Feinmann. His parents had taken him along under the condition that he behave well, but he ended up saying what he had heard. According to Juan Ignacio, his statement had a profound effect on the legal strategy surrounding Mangeri’s case. Initially, the defense seemed to have a favorable outlook. However, after his remarks, public opinion began to shift dramatically. People started demanding that the child be brought back to speak, which changed the overall direction of the case. Juan Ignacio noted that the situation forced his father and co-defense attorney Marcelo Biondi to adjust their approach. He described how the public reaction created pressure that led to a different outcome. Eventually, Mangeri was found guilty of both sexual abuse and murder in July 2015, receiving a life sentence. Reflecting on his experience, Juan Ignacio acknowledged the impact of his actions. He mentioned that the episode helped shape his understanding of justice and morality. Despite the initial shock and exposure, he felt supported by his family, particularly his mother, who prioritized his well-being throughout the ordeal. Today, at 19 years old, Juan Ignacio maintains a reflective stance on the past. He emphasizes that the incident taught him valuable lessons about responsibility and integrity. While acknowledging the challenges faced, he remains focused on defining his future path independently.

The son of Miguel Ángel Pierri who condemned Mangeri broke his silence: He ended up giving what he had to give, that he is in prison

In August 2013, during a live television interview, six-year-old Juan Ignacio Pierri interrupted his father, lawyer Miguel Ángel Pierri, who was defending Jorge Mangeri, the main suspect in the murder of 16-year-old Ángeles Rawson. The child said, 'But stupid, he killed Ángeles,' which shocked the public and shifted the case's trajectory. This statement led to increased scrutiny of Mangeri, who had previously been seen as less likely to be the perpetrator. As a result, public opinion turned against him, contributing to his eventual conviction in 2015 for the femicide. Juan Ignacio later reflected on the impact of his words, stating they changed the course of the trial and led to Mangeri being sentenced to life imprisonment.
