Penal - Rol O-5316-2024

This document details a court case against BRANDON LEE ALEJANDRO RIVEROS VÁSQUEZ for possession of technological elements within a penitentiary establishment. The incident occurred on January 8, 2024, at the Santiago Uno Penitentiary Detention Center, where the defendant was found with a Redmi cell phone. The court found him guilty of the consummated offense under Article 34 ter of the Penal Code, sentencing him to 180 days of lesser imprisonment in its minimum degree, with accessory penalties of suspension from public office and confiscation of the device. The court based its decision on the consistent testimonies of Gendarmerie witnesses and photographic evidence, deeming the defendant's culpability proven. Probationary measures were denied due to the defendant's prior conviction for robbery with intimidation and current preventive detention for another case, suggesting a low deterrent effect. The prosecution sought a harsher sentence of 540 days, while the defense argued for acquittal or a lesser sentence of 3 days with community service. The defendant was not ordered to pay costs as he was represented by the Public Defender's Office and was already deprived of liberty.
