Police
Cristina Castro (42) arrived on time this Thursday at the Shell service station, on national route 3, in Pedro Luro.
At 8 she began to work.
He was in the kitchen and after 1 pm he learned from
Clarín
that the conclusive report of the autopsy on the remains of his son, Facundo Astudillo Castro (22), had come out, which determined that he died of "asphyxia by submersion" in the place where he was found on August 15, although he could not establish whether they killed him.
- Did you receive the communication? The report came out.
-Not yet.
-The result has already been published.
-I'm not surprised. I'm going to talk to my lawyers.
Minutes later, the woman agreed to speak with this newspaper, the only media present in the place.
In the dialogue she insisted on the responsibility of the Buenos Aires Police in the case, despite the fact that the autopsy does not favor her opinion.

-What can you say about the report that was published?
-That Facu's death was a violent death by suffocation by submersion, they have drowned him. The violent death and the phenomenon of the 'pink tooth' says that it has had third-party intervention, that it has not been on its own account, nobody drowns himself in that way, violently. Yes we have noticed a very important drop from the Nation, at the time I told them that I had believed in the president (Alberto Fernández), who had told me that he was going to be transparent, and he was going to do everything he could to get it out. light the truth, and today I see that it does not, because if an expert who gave a report on the day of the autopsy at this time turned back and said something else, it seems to me that she has had a significant drop in the line from above.

-Why do you think that?
-I think they are banning Berni (Buenos Aires Minister of Security, Sergio) with this. The date of death gives us just May 8, we were just taking accounts, of which it is not yet known exactly what day, but they have drowned him in that place, he has died in that place, they have not been able to explain, beyond of a vague report, why was the body naked, why the clothes my son was wearing that day were inside the backpack, are many things that they have not been able to explain. Yes, we have noticed this important drop in the line that they have had from above to say other things that they said on the day of the autopsy.
-Do you know the name of this expert you mention, were you in contact with her?
-Yes, I know the names of all the experts, but I am going to wait until tomorrow where the judge and the prosecutor have a meeting, so that they can explain to me, because there are many things that I do not understand, to continue fighting her.
-Do you continue to maintain that your son was killed?
-I always said it, I am sure that my son was killed and the police killed him, I will continue to support him. And if I have to request a new autopsy I will do it, and if I have to request new tests I will continue to do so. They are not going to rush me with this that I say one thing and then say another, it does not serve me and it does not serve anyone. I believed and trusted, today I will no longer believe in anyone or trust anyone, and I will ask for everything that was late and that they should have done a long time ago. I'm also going to ask why the body toxicology test wasn't done. I am going to ask for new expertise and now I am going to meet my lawyers (Luciano Peretto and Leandro Aparicio).
-Did you speak with Judge María Gabriela Marrón?
-The judge has not called me at all, so when I can talk to all of them I will draw a conclusion and communicate it. For now what I can say is that Facu had a violent death by suffocation by submersion, Facu was drowned.
Facundo Astudillo Castro (22) was found dead on August 15.
- Do you insist that even with this report it is impossible as it was said that Facundo has consciously arrived at that place and that he has drowned?
- By his own means he never got there. I completely discard that, I discarded it, do not forget that your stone was found in a patrol car and it was not inside, your stone was found and its essence was in the trunk, it was also in Lieutenant Origone's truck who said that he never stopped it and never got in there, and the dog broke the seat. There are many things that we have to wait, many skills ahead.
-Does the autopsy result surprise you?
-I am not surprised by this, it does not surprise me that an expert says one thing and then gets back and wants to tell you something else, I have stayed with what they told me that day, the day I left I told them my son died, They killed my son ... he died by suffocation, they asphyxiated him, and today it is found that he has been asphyxiated by submersion, only one does not drown oneself and causes a violent death by submersion.
-How have your feelings been this day?
-I stay with what I thought first, I stay with him, don't trust anyone, I keep everyone for sale, I stay with him from above, orders are given; and if they say no from above, it is no. Not with me, I don't like being played with, and I'm going to show it to them.
