Penal - Rol N° O-609-2020

This document details a legal case concerning threats and injuries within a family context. The proceedings involved Juan Esteban Valenzuela Caba as the accused and his mother, Elena Del Carmen Caba Pérez, as the victim. The case, RIT F-23-2020/609-2020 and RUC 2000269127-3, was heard by the Juzgado de Letras y Garantía de Cabrero on September 15, 2021, under an abbreviated procedure. The accused was found guilty of three counts of threats and one count of serious injury, with the court imposing a combined sentence of 61 days for the threats and 541 days for the injuries. Key aspects of the ruling included the granting of conditional remission of the penalty, a prohibition of approach order for six months, and mandatory participation in an alcohol treatment program. The court considered the accused's substantial collaboration in accepting the abbreviated procedure as a mitigating factor. The defense questioned the classification of injuries and the necessity of the prohibition of approach order, proposing an alternative impulse control treatment. The tribunal upheld the prosecution's charges and the conditional remission, while denying the defense's request for alternative measures, emphasizing the need for victim protection. Legal provisions cited include articles from the Penal Code related to threats and injuries, as well as the Law on Domestic Violence. Conditions for the remission included regular reporting to Gendarmería and compliance with the treatment program, with failure to comply leading to the enforcement of the full prison sentence.
