"
She has me very bad, it seems that that old woman is giving us. She is capable of doing many bad things just for her to look good
."
The phrase belongs to a screenshot of a phone chat between John Naged (30) and his girlfriend.
The topic of conversation: the strange and suspicious behavior of Julieta Bonanno (31), lawyer for her father, the Mexican drug lord Rodrigo Alexander Naged Ramírez (59), implicated in the "Bobinas Blancas" case.
From that phrase - and other similar ones in the power of Justice - it is clear that John distrusted Bonanno and feared that he would send them to kill.
"
It gives me like scared. I hope that is not what I think", "He is looking for the weak side"
, it is read in the captures.
The chats, provided by a witness with a reserved identity, would be from mid-May 2018. A few later, on June 4, a hitman entered the building in the Belgrano neighborhood where father and son lived and, practically in front of Bonanno, shot them .

Although the hitmen do not leave witnesses, she came out of the bloody episode intact.
However, in a few hours she went from "victim" and "miraculous witness" to being arrested on the suspicion that she had commissioned the crimes.
For this reason - for hiring a hit man, who has not yet appeared - she has been on trial since last March 2 by the Federal Oral Court No. 8, with the prosecutor Marcelo Colombo in charge of the accusation.
For the time being, Bonanno chose not to testify at the trial.
In any case, her two phones hijacked in the case, an iPhone 6 and an iPhone 8 Plus,
will speak for her
.
Both were opened at a cost of almost $ 10,000 in the United States by the Cellebrite company.
The mysterious hooded man, behind the lawyer of the drug trafficker who ended up executed with his son, before entering the department of Belgrano.
Some 60,000 photos and 1,200 conversations were discovered on the phones that are being analyzed by the prosecution.
All this enormous amount of information was formally accepted as evidence only last Tuesday 16.
That day the police officers who arrived at the 2659 Cabildo Avenue apartment after Bonanno herself called 911 testified that day. But the really important thing about that hearing was the resolution of judges Sabrina Namer, Nicolás Toselli and María Gabriela López Iñiguez de reject the requests for annulment and recusal of the defense lawyer Leopoldo Murúa.
In doing so, the TOF 8 automatically incorporated as valid the contents of the telephones that, in addition, coincide in several points with the chats provided by the reserved identity token.
IPhones promise to bring light to some dark spots in the case.
For now, they are revealing real pearls of how Bonanno was managed.
In the blue Caribbean
Among the mysteries of the case is how an almost recently received lawyer came to represent someone in a cause as important as that of "Bobinas Blancas" (1,375 kilos of cocaine seized in Bahía Blanca in 2017).
Nor is it at all clear what his true relationship was with the Mexican cartel that owns that drug.
It is only known that in the courts of Morón, where she litigated before falling prey, she bragged that cell phones had been given to her by drug lords in Mexico.

On those cell phones there are many conversations with a Mexican woman nicknamed "
La Tía
."
In reality, they are
hot chats between Bonanno and what would be an important figure of the Cartel
.
This woman even offers him shelter if the lawyer decides to emigrate from Argentina.
One hypothesis of the case is that Bonanno traveled to Mexico to meet this woman.
In fact, he has a trip in May 2018 from Buenos Aires to Uruguay and from there to Peru that, it is believed, passed through Mexico and ended up in the Dominican Republic.
What is really striking about this trip is that by mid-May 2018, the lawyer was spending a few days in the Dominican Republic and from there she sent John Naged messages to meet him and his father in the Parque Saavedra area.

It is about this failed meeting, the fact that she never appears in the appointments that she sets up, that the son of the drug trafficker complains in the chats delivered by the witness with a reserved identity.
What investigators believe is that, from the Dominican Republic, Bonanno
was summoning father and son to a place to send the hit man there
.
Its cut was perfect and placed it thousands of miles away.
It is also believed that the crime would have failed in May because the "victims" got tired of waiting in the place indicated by her and because they already distrusted the lawyer.
At that time, early 2018, after suffering a stroke in prison, Rodrigo Alexander Naged Ramírez had been released by Campana federal judge Adrián González Charvay, in charge of "Bobinas Blancas."
His son John had traveled to Argentina to care for him, but he was running out of funds.
According to Bonanno herself after the crime, it was she who paid their rent and that day she had come to bring them money.
Some time before, John Naged had asked Bonanno for a solution so that he could return to Mexico with his father.
And she offered him two plans, which were also registered on the phones.
Rodrigo Alexander Naged Ramírez (59), the Mexican drug dealer involved in "Bobinas Blancas" murdered in Belgrano.
Plan A.
As Rodrigo Alexander Naged Ramírez was complicated by listening to the "White Coils" cause, he suggested that he undergo
vocal cord surgery
.
With this he intended to change his voice record and thus question the expertise of the file.
Plan B.
Using contacts in the Airport Security Police (PSA), he offered his client to take him out of the country and, once in Mexico,
get a trucho death certificate
.
In fact, he even called an acquaintance at the PSA to test him out.
This man had to testify as a witness in the Federal Police, he acknowledged the talk but assured that he told him that what he wanted could not be done.
Father and son lived their last days in fear of being betrayed.
They ended up dead and buried in the Chacarita cemetery.
They are still there.
