Jorge Valdivia's case enters its final stretch: set last 15 days of investigation deadline

The investigation into former footballer Jorge Valdivia, accused of two sexual assault charges, has entered its final phase. The case, which began almost two years ago, now has a 15-day extension for pending reports from the Cavas center regarding two victims and the athlete himself. During a brief court session, prosecutors, the complainants, and Valdivia’s defense agreed to extend the investigation period. Once completed, the prosecution will have 10 days to decide whether to proceed with a trial, potentially starting in March 2027. Valdivia’s defense denies the allegations, claiming the acts occurred with consent, and aims to quickly move toward a trial to prove his innocence. He is currently under nighttime house arrest.
