Judicial sources reported that the driver was prosecuted by judge Alberto Banos, who also decided to disable him to drive after the accident.

Botta was indicted on charges of “manslaughter” and “injuries”, while the judge didn’t allow him to drive vehicles any more.

The driver this week expanded his preliminary statement before the judge Banos after stayed in the hospital due to a hypoglycemic crisis, following with diabetes.

According to the driver, in fact suffered a hypoglycaemic crisis and can not remember how the accident took place and added he lived all “like a dream”.

But he admitted in court that at the time of applying for registration of professional conduct did not declare that he was diabetic.

In the accident, the defendant took Santa Fé Avenue in the opposite direction after ram a motorcycle, and ended up crashing against two other drivers and that’s when Leonela was hit.

Because of the serious accident at the intersection of Santa Fe Avenue and Montevideo St., Leonela died on the place.
