Police find biological material in murdered speech therapist's office in Valencia
Investigators have found organic remains in both the office and the clothing of the therapist murdered in Valencia, a discovery that could clarify the circumstances of the crime, according to Antena 3.
The homicide was committed by the father of a two-year-old girl who attended sessions at the centre. The assailant, aged 24, entered the office before the appointment ended and allegedly discovered his daughter with her trousers down and without a nappy, which made him fear possible abuse. After demanding CCTV footage from the specialist and receiving a refusal, a heated argument escalated into an attack with a sharp weapon.
Following the incident, the perpetrator voluntarily presented himself at a police station with blood-stained hands. He has been remanded in custody without bail at Picassent penitentiary centre, where he was transferred at 13:00 hours after declaring for two hours before the judge, where he reiterated his version of events.
According to collaborator Carlos Quílez, the case presents multiple angles. The true impact of the evidence will depend on the material extracted from electronic devices from both the clinic and the victim's private residence.
Family and friends of the deceased have asked the media to stop what they consider a campaign to tarnish his name. They argue that the professional, with over a decade of experience, was simply dedicated to his work. They maintain that the assailant "went directly to kill him", since he had only attended his services on a few occasions.
