  • Judith Redondo Quezada, daughter of Ana Julia, this Tuesday before the jury: "During the search for the child I realized that she was some sadder moments and others as normal, it was rare. Once, at Gabriel's grandmother's house When he got out of the shower he told me: 'Look what guy is running out of me, I'm going to the gym and I'm getting pretty strong, look.' I thought: jolín, I'm here suffering for a child I don't know and she as if nothing ". Judith, who has declared by videoconference, has asked not to see her mother at any time: "It doesn't do me good," he explained.
  • Ana Julia has told how she arrived in Spain: deceived by her sister to practice prostitution. "I was 18, and my older sister Paula had come to Spain before, marrying a Spaniard. She cheated on me, brought me here to prostitute me. They put me in a whorehouse in Burgos called Las Malvinas. I was there for a month, until I left. They had cheated on me. Then I started to scrub houses, and then I got a job as a carnicera. " He did not explain, in any case, how he fell into the hands of a network of human trafficking, and fled from it as and when he wanted.
  • "When I was burying Gabriel there was no hand, so I took the ax and hit him with the part that cuts. I had to do it by looking the other way, because I couldn't see it, the hand was out," Quezada said before the court, sobbing just at that moment and uniting without empathy a diminutive affectionate with the section of an arm of a child - the radius and the ulna broke to blows, according to the accusation. "In the end, I didn't get anything, and I put more gravel on it. Then , I matched the ground, so it wouldn't show." Because of these statements and the fact that he undressed the kid - "I don't know very well why I did it" -, the private prosecution believes that his plan was to dismember him.
  • What were you doing searching for poisonous plants online, on Angel's computer? The prosecutor asked. "Oh, I have a niece in the Dominican Republic, Regina, who makes facial masks, and those plants are used for that," said Quezada. The prosecution believes he tried twice to poison Gabriel before killing him. "Poison me? If he spent Tuesday afternoon with him, and made milk and Oreo biscuits, that his father did not want to give them because he said he had a lot of sugar."
  • The accused has admitted that, after committing the crime and burying Gabriel "making a hole", he smoked four cigarettes and was "painting doors for a while" in the house of Rodalquilar, which the couple was trying to turn into a home for enjoyment own after years rented. "I did not know what to do, I was very nervous, I went in and out," he explained in explanation to how he could continue as if nothing his activities minutes after killing an eight-year-old boy.
  • When Ana Julia, Ángel and a mutual friend, Elisabeth, were looking for Gabriel near the house of Sergio Melguizo, the defendant's ex-boyfriend, and went directly to his house, in the Las Agüillas area, Ana Julia "did as that he didn't know me at all, "Melguizo said in court, " although we had been married for a year, he pretended he didn't know me, neither me nor my dog, with whom she had obviously played many times when we lived together. It seemed very strange, "he said. "I got into the house and I was looking at them through the window." Afterwards, Ana Julia placed the boy's shirt 800 meters from Melguizo's house, pretended to find her: "Look, it smells like Gabriel," he told the father, finding the garment.
  • During the instruction, Ana Julia admitted that she was recorded by throwing expletives at Gabriel while moving her body by car from Rodalquilar to Vícar, where she was arrested by the Civil Guard: "If a small fish are going to have a small fish, for my balls", or " and where I take this now, to a greenhouse, "he said. This Tuesday, listening to the audios, he has entrenched himself in that nothing was heard. However, in the instruction he admitted the sentences, and even added that they sounded "very cruel."
  • On March 9, 2017, after many days of searching, Ana Julia, who had always maintained that Gabriel would appear alive, surprised Francisco Martín, psychologist of Patricia Ramírez, mother of the child: "She would always tell me: 'You will have it well, will be watching TV, perhaps drug addict, but it will be fine, "said the psychologist before the jury some facts that, with the woman already in the spotlight of the researchers, encouraged the thesis of kidnapping by rescue. "However, that day he told me: 'Surely he's dead, it's been too many days.' My blood froze. I quickly understood." Ana Julia and the family already suspected each other at that time. They, that she had made the child disappear. She, they knew it.
  • Ana Julia has tried to make her natural appearance before the jury and the court, crying inconsolably in the most cruel moments and staying meek, affable, in the most everyday explanations, for example about Gabriel, "a very good child, very polite." However, two flashes only noticeable to those present have evidenced the calculating character and used to make an image, and were very noticeable from the press room from which, with a closed-circuit TV, the informants follow the trial: in both occasions in which he has apologized to the Cruz Ramírez family, sobbing, in living tears, in two very specific periods, Ana Julia has looked directly not at the jury or the judge, but at the camera that focused her. "She is a liar, she controls the image she projects a lot," said Sergio Melguizo, his ex.
