Penal - Rol O-2113-2019

The case involves Víctor Ismael Osses Lincheo, a Gendarmerie corporal, who was found guilty of drug trafficking. The tribunal determined that Osses Lincheo engaged in the sale of illicit substances while coordinating with inmates and their families using cell phones and a vehicle. He was apprehended on April 28, 2019, with 2.3 grams of base cocaine. The court qualified the offense under articles 1 and 4 of Law 20.000, considering it consummated. Osses Lincheo received a sentence of 154 days in prison, a fine equivalent to one monthly tax unit, and was exempted from paying court costs. His sentence was deemed served due to prior house arrest. The court also ordered the confiscation of drug trafficking paraphernalia and the omission of the conviction from his criminal record. Mitigating factors included Osses Lincheo's previous clean record and substantial cooperation in clarifying the facts, while an aggravating factor was committing the offense within a detention facility. These factors led to a sentence reduction. The prosecution sought a harsher penalty, but the defense successfully argued for a reduced sentence based on Osses Lincheo's cooperation. The tribunal ultimately found the evidence sufficient to convict Osses Lincheo and imposed a penalty that accounted for the mitigating circumstances, noting his acceptance of the charges and the validity of the abbreviated procedure.
