This case began with a clumsy pursuit of justice. Not only contrary to the judicialization of history, but at the same time very exceptional. Typical, however, of some crimes linked to sexual violence, which achieve rapid and whimsical social outrage. Indignation that usually resembles moral panic and that does not arouse other eventual crimes. When this happens, arriving at some kind of truth is even more difficult because everything is tinged with that initial clamor.
Moral panic, first and foremost, was Telefe. He was the first canceller. Perhaps because he was subject to the protocols of a multinational (Paramount), he separated -they will say in a preventive way- the defendant. Separation of the exceptionality of the sexual, because before another possible commission of crime, the times of Justice are awaited.
This also leads me to remember that the “punishments” available in our society do not satisfy me.
It has been shown that they are inefficient. I am not punitive, I believe that there are many ways to reconstitute and this applies to both the alleged victim and the alleged perpetrator. The exceptionality of the sexual is equivalent to not combating sexual violence properly. To encourage a collective anger that does not engender labor mistreatment or precariousness. Strictly speaking, there is no sexual violence emancipated from other forms of violence. They act structurally and organically.
Finally, before this story we were all the time very close to homo-hate. The degree of punishment that is generally perceived around the figure Jey Mammón is not even remotely the same as that received by those accused and even convicted of gender violence.
