Throughout his life,

Chano Moreno Charpentier

(39) cultivated an eccentric profile, with emotional ups and downs marked by his addiction to drugs, which led him to star in numerous troublesome episodes: 

from street fights, crashes, robberies, reports of violence and recurring hospitalizations.  

From the beginning of his career with the pop band

Tan Biónica

,

in 2010, it

was known that the musician suffered from a serious dependence on cocaine,

which, according to what was said at the time, even caused the group's separation, in 2015.

On

August 5 of that same year, the first major public scandal

in Chano's life occurred, when he lost control of his truck and rammed several cars parked in the Núñez neighborhood, and then carried out a series of

risky maneuvers until he crashed. against the gate of a house.

The episode did not stop there, as it continued with another one of violence.

It is that 

the residents of the area reacted and tried to attack him.

Hours later, through his lawyers, the musician alleged that he had lost control because he was fleeing an

attempted robbery

, something that could never be proven.

Months before, Chano had had a similar accident in Jujuy.

And

in March 2016 it crashed again.

On that occasion, it crashed into the trailer of a truck on Route 3, near the town of

Virrey del Pino

.

As a result of these clashes, the artist became the main target of jokes for his reckless walk.

In recent years, Chano offered various reports in which he

recognized his problems with drugs

, which initially alienated him from the group that made him famous, to later intercede in the normal development of his personal and artistic life, and place him in a delicate

situation at the judicial level.

In 2018, the singer received a very strong blow:

Militta Bora reported him to the Justice for mistreatment

during the three-month relationship they had maintained in 2016.

"Militta Bora is a threatening mine, she's screwed.

I never hit a pineapple or hit a chabón.

I'm a musician, crazy, I'm sensitive. She asked me for $ 10,000 to say nothing,

she screwed me up, she told me that I was going to burn down the house

and that I had to die like my dad, "said the musician at that time.

The following year, in 2019, he was embroiled in another

confusing police episode.

But no longer in Argentina, but in Barcelona.

It happens that, while he was in that Spanish city to record a video clip, he

was assaulted by two young Maghrebi criminals

(immigrants from Algeria, Morocco and Tunisia)

who took his belongings from him.

A month after the European incident, in September 2019, Chano began a drug rehabilitation process and

was admitted to the Sana Puiggari Life Clinic, in Entre Ríos

.

It was the musician himself who asked to be hospitalized since he argued that he

no longer wanted to be involved in problems or make the news in police cases

, in order to dedicate himself 100% to his career as a musician.

In 2020, Chano visited the program

PH Podemos Hablar

(Telefe, Saturdays at 10 p.m.), where he was rehabilitated and reflected on the last years of his life: "I didn't know how to get off that dizzying pace, for something I did what I did. Obviously it was unintentional,

it hurt me a lot and years later I continued to have problems, lawsuits

. "

Even during the first stretch of his quarantine, the singer seemed to have recovered, since he

was part of a benefit festival by streaming

of the Argentine edition of the prestigious music magazine

Billboard

. 

Regarding his artistic career, Charpentier

released two solo albums

:

El Otro

(2018) and

El Doble

(2019).

Currently,

he was working on a third production

in the studio that he had set up at his home in the town of

Exaltación de la Cruz

, where the incident occurred that has him as the protagonist this Monday.
