Penal - Rol O-3995-2019

The case involves a physical altercation between María Teresa Ulloa Fonseca and Soledad Belén San Martín Aguilar. The incident occurred on February 19, 2019, at the defendant's residence located at Dirección. The victim, María Teresa Ulloa Fonseca, visited the defendant, Soledad Belén San Martín Aguilar. The defendant assaulted the victim by striking her in the face with her fists and pulling her hair after seeing a video on her father's phone showing the victim consuming drugs. Subsequently, the defendant left the scene. The victim sustained minor injuries, including facial contusion, scalp contusion, and traumatic alopecia. The legal qualification is a minor offense of Slight Injuries, as defined and penalized in Article 494 N°5 of the Penal Code. The defendant acted as the perpetrator. The imposed penalty is a fine to the fiscal benefit equivalent to one-third of a Monthly Tax Unit (UTM). The defendant, Soledad Belén San Martín Aguilar, is a student with an irreproachable prior record. The court considered the mitigating factor of irreproachable prior conduct (Article 11 N°6 of the Penal Code), which led to a reduction in the fine to one-third of a UTM (Article 70 of the Penal Code). The prosecution requested a fine of one UTM, while the defense sought a reduction to one-third of a UTM due to the defendant's status as a high school student, and requested exemption from costs under Article 398 of the Code of Criminal Procedure. Key grounds for the court's decision included the defendant's admission of responsibility, her irreproachable prior record, her student status, the acceptance of the defense's request under Article 398 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, and the savings in costs and time by avoiding a trial. Relevant legal provisions cited include Articles 1, 7, 11 N°6, 14, 15, 24, 25, 30, 70, and 494 N°5 of the Penal Code, and Articles 47, 297, 340, 388, 393, 394, 395, and 398 of the Code of Criminal Procedure. The sentence included a six-month suspension of the penalty (fine), with definitive dismissal upon compliance and unspecified consequences for non-compliance. The defendant was granted the benefit of sentence suspension under Article 398 of the Code of Criminal Procedure and exemption from paying costs.
