Specifically, that her ex-partner and her friend, also her parricide, mistreated her, “he even raped her while he was at her in-laws’ house.” “An abused person is not blaming this person, quite the opposite,” she stressed, later emphasizing that victims who suffer gender-based violence feel guilt and do not explain the story “as if they were telling a story.”
