New autopsy
Attorney General Tarek William Saab presented to the press videos containing the confessions of the “two murderers” of Tyrone González, known as Canserbero, and explained in detail the circumstances of the death of the musician at the age of 26.
Prosecutors reopened the investigation in November. The exhumation of the singer’s body and a new autopsy determined that Canserbero had not jumped from the tenth floor of a building in Maracay (north center), just after stabbing his friend Carlos Molnar during a fight.
In one of the videos released by Saab, Natalia Amestica, wife of Carlos Molnar, describes how she drugged them both and then stabbed them several times.
Then he called his brother Guillermo to “help her” to cover up the double murder. They both starred a fight between Canserbero and his friendhitting his corpse, and then they threw Canserbero’s body into the void.
According to the prosecutor, the sister and brother paid bribes to the police officers who arrived at the scene to support the suicide theory.
“Everything was done, in cold blood, with premeditation,” he stated..
According to him, the new investigation made it possible to determine that the motive for the crime was a dispute over a large sum of money after a tour of Argentina and Chile financed by Amestica.
Six arrested
Six people are detained and several are fugitives, according to the prosecutor.
In particular, the prosecution issued arrest warrants against six of the seven police officers who first arrived at the scene of the crime. The seventh police officer involved died in 2018.
“They received $10,000, they changed the place, the crime scene” and acted “to favor the suicide theory,” Saab said.
The prosecution also ordered the arrest of a forensic doctor and two prosecutors who had participated in the initial investigations.
A trial will take place, but Saab did not specify a date.
“Canserbero can rest in peace”, he concluded by making a comparison with the murder of American rapper Tupac Shakur in 1996 in the United States.
