Santiago's Third Oral Criminal Court acquitted eight defendants in the SQM case by majority, including former senator Pablo Longueira and candidate Marco Enríquez-Ominami, criticizing the process's length and the prosecution's evidence quality. The verdict highlights a violation of the right to a timely trial after 11 years of investigation and a three-year trial. The sentence will be delivered in August 2026, leaving room for a nullity appeal.
The Supreme Court of Justice of Buenos Aires Province rejected an appeal and upheld the acquittal of doctor Pablo Ghisoni, who spent three years in custody over a false sexual abuse claim by his son Tomás. The young man admitted in 2025 that the accusation was fabricated and that he was influenced by his mother.
