The TSJA confirms sentence for young man for robbery, fraud and attempted homicide against his 72-year-old lover

Published on May 06, 2026 | Translated from Spanish

The High Court of Justice of Andalusia has upheld the sentence against a 21-year-old young man for a series of serious crimes against his partner, a 72-year-old woman. The judicial ruling confirms the prison sentence imposed for robbery, fraud, and attempted homicide, after it was proven that the accused took advantage of the sentimental trust to steal her belongings, deceive her financially, and attempt to end her life.

Forensic technology, key to dismantling the accused's alibi 🔍

The investigation relied on digital evidence and analysis of mobile communications to verify the accused's movements during the events. Computer forensics experts recovered messages and geolocation records that contradicted his initial version. Furthermore, the analysis of bank transactions linked the withdrawals of money from the victim's account to moments after the attempted homicide, consolidating the circumstantial evidence that led to the conviction.

Toxic love or pension plan: the double life of the young seducer 💔

The accused, who according to witnesses presented himself as a charming and attentive young man, has proven that in love and crime, there is no age limit for bad business. Of course, his seduction strategy included an extra risk: stealing the wallet, emptying the account, and, just in case, trying to finish off the client. Good thing justice, unlike his plan, did have a predictable ending.
