• Courts The mother of Marta Calvo denounces in the trial that a defense witness is bought

The trial against the alleged murderer of Marta Calvo and two other women,

and

, has reached the key moment this Wednesday: the statement of the accused,

, who has denied the facts and has even shown himself almost crying at times.

"I felt very unhappy, I just wanted to have a good time," he said, before even denouncing an alleged "smear campaign" by the accusations.

Did he kill Marta Calvo?

"Nope".

Did she introduce any rock of cocaine into her genitals?

"Absolutely not".

Why didn't she call 911 for her when she found her dead in bed?

"The world comes crashing down on me and I think about killing myself."

In this way, Jorge Ignacio Palma has responded to the questions of his lawyer, after refusing to answer the interrogations of the accusations.

Yes, he has agreed to answer, on the contrary, those of the jury.

For the first time, the popular jury has been able to hear the words of someone who in recent weeks has seen how witnesses and even his other surviving victims knocked down his story.

Jorge Ignacio Palma, however, has reiterated that he did not kill Marta Calvo, but that she was found dead in her bed after a sexual encounter for which a "white party" with cocaine had been agreed.

He decided to dismember her out of fear and dumped her remains in containers in

and

.

Her body, however, has never been found.

"The woman is a human being, the most beautiful thing there is. How am I going to consider her an object?", He assured after acknowledging that he regularly hired the sexual services of prostitutes.

Marta Calvo was one of them.

"I had no intention of harming or killing any girl."

Jorge Ignacio Palma took 21 days to turn himself in to the

after the death of Marta Calvo at her home in

(Valencia) in November 2019. "If I was slow to turn myself in, it was because I was very afraid," he said, after even explaining that he thought of committing suicide.

In the end he decided not to do it and, consequently, he did not consider it "appropriate" to call 112 to report Marta's death.

"If I had not taken anyone's life, why would I take mine? They do not know what I have suffered these two and a half years. I know that there are many people who suffer, but I am also a human being", has pointed out Jorge Ignacio Palma.

After spending the night together and she telling him that she wasn't feeling well, they went to bed and the next day, according to the defendant's account, she was already found without a pulse.

"When I woke up, I call her, but she doesn't wake up. I raise the blind, I see a strange gesture, I move it and feel a strange touch. I take her pulse and I can't find it. She wasn't breathing and the world came crashing down on me", has detailed.

According to her version, after verifying that she was dead, he dismembered her to be able to remove her body from her house without being seen.

Marta Calvo's mother,

, is one of those who does not believe her version and made it clear in the trial during her appearance.

Upon his arrival this Wednesday at the City of Justice, Burón insisted that his daughter "is whole."

The considered "mother courage" for having promoted this investigation that could connect the different deaths - all of prostitutes - went so far as to say that the accused did not reveal where her daughter's body was because there would be other women in the place.

Nor do the investigators and civil guards who have testified in the trial give credibility to the dismemberment thesis because it left absolutely no trace.

Her lawyer has therefore asked her how she managed to clean up all traces of blood.

Her answer: "I bought bleach, ammonia, a mop, a broom and so on. I threw it away afterwards. After a first cleaning, I noticed that certain things remained in the drain, and that's why I also bought a plunger."

The only one accused of the disappearance of Marta Calvo, therefore, has not left the script that he has maintained all this time.

Moreover, he has explained that if he confessed it was because "I had to have peace with my conscience and that this woman's family knew what had happened."

All the survivors who have testified at the trial have acknowledged having had sexual relations with Jorge Ignacio Palma.

They all know him and they have all certified the same 'modus operandi'.

He contacted them through dating websites on the condition of throwing a "white party".

Now, all of them took for granted that the consumption of cocaine would be limited to him snorting it, but in the encounters he introduced the drug to their genitals, with serious consequences.
