The facts of which I am accused are foreign to me, and to the values ​​that have guided my life: love, respect and effort.

I will continue fighting as I have always done, believing in myself with the support and confidence of those who know who I really am: I will fight until the end with the unconditional love of my children, my parents and those who continue to be by my side, for soon prove my innocence to the whole world."
