Pais da casa dos horrores de Oviedo são condenados a dois anos e dez meses de prisão

O Tribunal Provincial das Astúrias condenou Christian Steffen e Melissa Ann Steffen na segunda-feira a dois anos e dez meses de prisão por violência psicológica habitual e abandono de família. Os pais, de origem alemã, mantiveram seus três filhos isolados por quase quatro anos em uma residência em Fitoria.

O tribunal absolveu o casal de cárcere privado. Cada um dos pais cumprirá dois anos e quatro meses por violência psicológica e seis meses por abandono. Eles também estão inabilitados por três anos e quatro meses para o exercício do poder familiar e deverão indenizar cada criança com 30.000 euros.

Os fatos ocorreram em 28 de abril de 2025, quando a polícia local resgatou os gêmeos de oito anos e o menino de dez anos na casa cor-de-rosa em Oviedo. As crianças, que viviam de fraldas e sem escolarização, demonstraram espanto ao ver o jardim e tocar na grama pela primeira vez.

A sentença, notificada hoje, rejeita a alegação dos pais de que o isolamento visava proteger as crianças da covid. Os menores permanecem em um centro tutelado pelo Principado das Astúrias, onde evoluem favoravelmente segundo as autoridades.
