The judicial case surrounding the musician Elián Ángel Valenzuela “Popularly known as.” L-Grant– He has ceased to be a marginal episode within his media career to become a cause of high institutional sensitivity. The artist, who in December 2023 was sentenced to three years in prison suspended for coercive threats and damages, faces a much more serious investigation, linked to trafficking in persons for the purpose of sexual exploitation and the corruption of minors.
The case, promoted by the Attorney General’s Office and Exploitation of Persons (Protex), advances in the Federal Criminal and Correctional Court No. 1 of Morón, under the orbit of Judge Martín Ramos and prosecutor Sebastián Basso. The file, identified with the number 37370-20204, has as its starting point the raid carried out on June 6, 2023 in the singer’s house, located in the Buenos Aires party of Moreno.
During that procedure, carried out by the DDI of Moreno-General Rodríguez, young women would have been found inside the house, some of them allegedly minors. According to the complaint filed by an organization specialized in the protection of trafficking victims, one of the most worrisome aspects of the case is the alleged adulteration of the operations of the operation to hide the real age of one of the teenagers present.
The manager and communicator Jorge Zonzini, who was also an active part in the media complaint against Yoo Cabrera youtuber “Recently condemned by trafficking,” he referred publicly to the file: “One of the minors signed as if she were her older sister. He made Maria CM passed, when it really was María Mm,” he said. And it went further: “If minutes were forged and there was collusion between police forces, judicial personnel and the environment of the accused, we are facing a case of institutional severity, not before a persecution due to social origin.”
Zonzini also denounced that the judicial scene was preceded by an internal warning maneuver: “The artist was alerted to raid And that prevented key elements, such as the weapon that initially motivated the intervention. “In addition, in the same operation, irregularities would have been registered by judicial agents who omitted or adulterated the affiliation of the present people.
Valenzuela’s environment, known in the musical environment as “THE MAFILIA”it was also mentioned in the file. As stated in the complaint, this group would be linked to intimidation towards witnesses and victims, configuring typically gangster behavior. The Protex considered that there are sufficient elements for federal justice to deepen the investigation into this alleged framework for protection and cover -up.
“Justice cannot take refuge in the show,” Zonzini warned. “When a judge tells an accused, in Chamber, which is an example for young people, citing phrases of films, what he is doing is playing for the gallery. Not for the truth or for the victims.” The reference was direct to Judge Ignacio Raccawho presided over the court that condemned Valenzuela for the previous reasons, and which was criticized for his indulgent speech during the reading of the ruling.
In parallel, defense lawyers Alejandro Cipolla (L-Gagan) and Guillermo Gastón López (Cabrera) were accused of hindering the cause through threatsmedia operations and pressure on journalists and influencers. According to complainants, these maneuvers are part of a broader distraction operation, mounted from sentimental scandals and clashes with celebrities such as Wanda Nara and Tamara Báez, with the aim of diluting the impact of criminal imputations.
The cause, which continues in the instructional stage, has been reinforced in recent weeks by data crossroads Among the federal courts of Morón, Escobar, Campana and San Martín. The researchers seek to determine if there was a coordinated cover of cover -up and exploitation, and if the artist’s media and economic environment influenced the judicial treatment of the case.
“Justice cannot be complicit in power,” Zonzini concluded. “This is not a case against a humble young man. It is a case that challenges the system: can the money hide crimes of this magnitude? Can the show protect the crime?” The answers are still pending. But In federal justice, the pieces begin to accommodate on a board that does not seem to have an immediate end.
