Chile court dismisses Mariana Sepúlveda case on prescription; defense cites missing PDI document

A Chilean court dismissed the case against Ghislaine Quiroz Carrizo, who confessed to involvement in Mariana Sepúlveda's death, due to statutory prescription. Defense lawyer Daniel Cabezas attributes the ruling to a missing PDI (investigative police) document that prevented substantive discussion, not the victim's health situation. The dismissal on procedural grounds, despite a confession, raises questions about investigative failures and accountability.
