Burlando defends the suspect in the crime Facundo Castillo, the other Báez Sosa

In cipolletti they are shocked. Not only for the cruel murder of the young Facundo Castillo, but for who is going to defend it. The thing is Fernando Burlando will be the lawyer for the alleged murderer, a case he took while defending the parents of Fernando Baez Sosa and while asking for a strong hand for the rugbiers.

Castillo was assassinated on December 19, 2021. He was returning from a party with his friends when there was a minor altercation with Ramiro Gutierrez, son of a heavyweight in the area who is linked to drug trafficking and the illegal purchase and sale of high-end vehicles. Gutiérrez, after the exchange with Castillo and his friends, got into his truck and rammed the group of young people. The young man died and five others ended up injured.

What is striking is that as an “advisor” to Gutierrez is mocking, a presence that in Cipolleti is attracting a lot of attention. The lawyer is not registered in that province, but there is talk in the place that he will become one from April and that there he will assume the official defense of the accused. In addition to the brutality of Castillo’s death, the double standard of the lawyer does not cease to attract attention. It is that at the same time that he defended the parents of Báez Sosa and pointed crudely against the rugbiers – “reverend sons of bitches”, he called them, a case on which he mounted for his Buenos Aires campaign -, in Neuquén he defended the bad guys from the movie. It is the typical double standard of the lawyer.
