Jealousy at 16: the murder that Instagram celebrated

Written by:
Two days after killing an 18-year-old student, the murderer posted a photo on Instagram celebrating that she had slept very well. How did a 16-year-old girl plan and execute a crime out of obsession, get convicted, but never set foot in prison?
In this episode, we explore how Karen Ñáñez, after years of documented harassment, sent a trap message from the stolen cell phone of the victim's boyfriend, lured her to a sawmill, and committed a homicide aggravated by premeditation. We examine the surveillance that captured the dragging of the body, the bag with scissors and a bloody knife found in a canal, and the question that haunts the family: why did the judicial system apply assisted freedom to such a premeditated crime?
Victim: María Fernanda Chiclo Linardo
Date: February 15, 2015
Location: Seres, Santa Fe, Argentina
Status: Sentenced to 13 years, assisted freedom without effective prison time
- The trap message sent from Rodrigo Gómez's "lost" cell phone lured Mafer to the sawmill exactly where she was murdered.
- Surveillance cameras captured Karen dragging the body while Mafer lay asphyxiated by barbed wire that fractured her trachea.
- Karen posted on Instagram celebrating having slept well the night of the murder, 48 hours after committing the crime.
- Although sentenced to 13 years for aggravated homicide with premeditation, she never set foot in a prison; she changed cities, names on social media, and tried to continue her life.
