Prosecutors in Los Ríos formalized charges against three children and an ex-son-in-law of Julia Chuñil for her alleged homicide on November 8, 2024. The ex-son-in-law's confession reconstructed the crime, which stemmed from an attempted robbery of an elderly man. Prosecutor Tatiana Esquivel also accused the children of fabricating the story of the dog Cholito to evoke emotion.
The Los Lagos Guarantee Court extended the detention of the three children and ex-son-in-law of Mapuche leader Julia Chuñil, accused in her disappearance and presumed death. The formalization hearing was postponed until Thursday, and her identity card was found in one of her son's homes in Temuco. Prosecutors requested communication restrictions among the suspects to safeguard the investigation.
