Frank Cuesta’s words, since he first appeared on television in the popular Cuatro program ‘Callejeros Viajeros’, were never politically correct. What’s more, his way of seeing life and expressing himself have not been to the taste of all audiences and many, through social networks, have let him know. However, It’s not something that has caused Frank any problems.. In fact, he continues to give his opinions both online and every time he has a camera in front of him.
His latest statements made about Daniel Sancho, and the trial that is being carried out for the alleged murder of the Colombian surgeon Edwin Arrieta, must not have sat well with the accused’s family either. And it is that Frank knows the justice of that country very well after his ex-wife was convicted in 2014 and spent more than six years in prison..
Frank Cuesta: “The judge doesn’t care about the circus around him”
“Everything that is around, that circus, the judge doesn’t care because he doesn’t know about it. We are talking about a trial in which a person is being tried for murdering and dismembering a person, which in this last crime is you can see how It is only a year and a half, but a normal person does not dismember another and the crime is committed in the most touristic area in all of Thailand. There have been three, four, five in recent years in which the death penalty has been given“, indicates the Spaniard.
Furthermore, for Frank Cuesta “everything that is said makes no sense, the judges neither watch television nor listen and there are data, like the first confession, which is always the most accurate because it is taken without a lawyer to give you instructions, Now it doesn’t matter what one or the other says.” In fact, Cuesta is very clear, in his opinion, why a life sentence or a death sentence was not contemplated. “That is that an agreement has been reached and they have bought the judge, the prosecutor or someone. In public opinion, in Thailand it would not be understood and what the defense has played is very dangerous.”because he has been trying to break the reputation of the police for more than six months.
Frank himself, in words he said in ‘El Hormiguero’, also affirmed the caution he had with his ex-wife’s case since he did not say anything until Yuyee was already in prison. “We have this thing where we believe we are superior and we forget that here we have Roman Law and there they have Royal Law.”with many different laws that have nothing to do with ours, as well as the times.” We must remember that a few weeks ago, in a podcast that Frank Cuesta attended, He even called Daniel Sancho a “straight hustler” and a “niato.”
The date of the verdict in the ‘Daniel Sancho case’: August 29
o
The courts of Koh Samui have confirmed that the next August 29 The final decision of this case will be known. The question raised by the Prosecutor’s Office, which left Daniel Sancho in check, was why it took him an hour to dismember the body and he did not go to the police if the death of Edwin Arrieta It was involuntary.
This issue can be transcendental in the decision. Although the death penalty is on the table, it is most likely that Daniel Sancho will spend many years in prison. In the case of reckless homicide, the maximum penalty would be eight years. However, if it were decided that it was intentional, the matter would increase from 15 to 20 years.
Daniel Sancho’s lawyer defends his legitimate actions
The defense lawyerMarcos García Montes, has attended ‘The critical look’, a Telecinco program, to clarify all the keys to this trial, which has been followed throughout Spain. The first thing that the lawyer wanted to clarify is the total confidence in the Thai judicial system: “The Thai judicial system is magnificent and we absolutely trust in it, Daniel Sancho enters this court innocent unless proven otherwise.”
He has also spoken about those last images, in which a defense forensic examiner sees Edwin’s injuries as compatible with an act of defense on the part of the accused: “When a leaked photographic report appears until it is presented by the department three months later, we see injuries compatible with the defense and it is unquestionable.
