Judge Francisco Pisa entered his request to resign amid a cataract of questions for having issued the dismissal, in 2017, of the murderer of

Paola Tacacho (32)

.

The English teacher was the victim of a femicide at the hands of

Mauricio Parada Parejas (32)

, a stalker whom she denounced 13 times.

The 13 were filed in the Tucumán criminal jurisdiction, in addition to another civil lawsuit that did not prosper, and three complaints of threats to his family, in Salta.

Only one was close to reaching trial, but Judge Pisa prevented it.

Francisco Pisa is judge of the 3rd nomination and a pile of questions weighs on him that resulted in

four requests from Jury

and a criminal complaint for "breach of the duties of a public official."

Also that the Supreme Court of Tucumán ordered an "urgent" audit in his court.

But now, as the submissions begin to reach the Legislature, Pisa has tendered the resignation to evade impeachment.

According to the newspaper

La Gaceta de Tucumán

, "the Minister of Government and Justice, Carolina Vargas Aignasse confirmed that the resignation entered on October 15."

Soledad Deza is a lawyer and representative of the organization Mujeres x Mujeres, which this Wednesday - together with the María de los Angeles Foundation - presented a request for dismissal against Judge Pisa.

"The resignation is conditioned to the granting of retirement, for which I consider that he

should be removed from his position

until the retirement benefit is granted. Because if not, that resignation allows him to continue working and administering the same injustice that he has been managing until now, which would be almost a joke, "Deza told

TN

channel

.

The resignation conditional on the granting of the retirement benefit has administrative deadlines to meet, Deza explained.

In that period, he can continue in front of the court and it would be a way to evade impeachment.

"We hope that, although retirement may enable you to escape impeachment, it does not enable you to continue exercising your position. The State has the power, for example, to suspend preventively. Then, that it be removed from the functions and not let him continue to hurt, "said Deza.

This political strategy uses bureaucratic mechanisms to avoid questioning.

Something similar happened to Carlos Albaca, a prosecutor accused of 11 crimes, including aggravated cover-up, for his actions during the seven years that the investigation into the femicide of Paulina Lebbos, murdered in 2006, was in his hands.

That crime, for which they named "the sons of power" in Tucumán, went unpunished thanks to the cover-up maneuvers during those years of investigation.

For this reason, Albaca was investigated and in 2014 Judge Pisa denied the elevation to trial.

It was only after six years and after reaching the Supreme Court of Justice that they managed to set a trial date that has not yet been finalized.

During all those years, Albaca dodged all instances of prosecution and retired without receiving any sanction.

The same did the prosecutor from Tucumán, Adriana Giannoni, who resigned in January, after several requests for impeachment for having prosecuted in November 2019 the case of a medical team who performed the legal abortion of a 14-year-old girl, a victim of abuse. sexual.

Giannoni submitted his resignation conditional on retirement in January and continued as head of the prosecution until a few weeks ago.

The social organizations that are denouncing Pisa demand that the same not happen with him.
