The 28-year-old young woman, a visual artist, was hit by a stray bullet while she was sharing Christmas Eve dinner with her family in Godoy Cruz.

“I, Mariana’s mother, am addressing the person who pressed that trigger, I want to speak to him. I want you to know that your unconsciousness did not take the life of just any person, it took the life of an angel who walked on earth, to my little daughter, a wonderful daughter, a loving sister, a special niece, a beautiful girlfriend, an incredible friend, an unparalleled artist,” he began the writing that he accompanied with a photo with his daughter.
“If you have any empathy left and you have any remorse, I ask you to surrender. You have the possibility of give me some comfort to me, to a father, a brother, an aunt, an uncle, a boyfriend and many friends who today are devastated by your recklessness,” he continued.
And he added: “If you do not do it of your will, Karma will haunt you for life.When you wake up you are going to see Mariana, when you go to bed you are going to see Mariana, every time you see a kind smile you are going to see Mariana, every time you think about your children/siblings/friends you are going to see and remember Mariana, you are going to remember that you extinguished my little girl’s life with a whole life ahead of her, full of projects, dreams and light, you are going to feel that you destroyed entire families and groups of friends who every year at Christmas instead of celebrating they are going to remember that they took away their Marianita, their daughter, their sister, their fiancee, their sister-in-law, their daughter-in-law, their friend.”
In addition, the mother of the murdered young woman asked witnesses and anyone who could provide information about the perpetrator of the shooting to collaborate, to come forward and share it with Justice.
