Trust is a fundamental pillar in any relationship, especially in friendships. However, as the case of journalist Guillermo 'Willy' Valadés demonstrates, even close friends can betray that trust in ways no one expects.
The crux of the matter revolves around Valadés' supposed terminal illness. According to him, he suffered from brain cancer with metastases to his back and was receiving treatment at the Clínica Universidad de Navarra in Madrid. In order to receive treatment and continue living, he asked his colleagues for money, who did not hesitate to give it to him.
However, when Paco González called, the clinic categorically denied having provided him with cancer treatment, and added that Valadés was not even registered as a patient. At that moment, the companions discovered that they had been deceived by what they considered a brother.
Now new data has been discovered. The latest and most surprising twist in the case is the discovery that the bank accounts into which the money for his alleged medical treatment was deposited are empty. This information has come to light thanks to the Y Ahora Sonsoles program, which has had exclusive access to certain judicial documents.
According to these sources, the amount missing from the bank accounts could amount to more than 400,000 euros. This amount, yet to be confirmed, increases the importance of the case and could have important legal implications for Valadés.
In addition to the discrepancies over his medical treatment, Valadés' recent behavior has also been questioned. Despite stating in May that he only had three months to live, he appears to continue leading a normal life, including walks through the center of Madrid and using public transport, with no signs of physical deterioration.
Despite the seriousness of this revelation and the large sum of money involved, the judicial process is far from over. Investigations continue and authorities are working meticulously to gather all the necessary evidence and testimony. As for the next legal stages, the complainants are expected to begin giving testimony in court from October 30, followed by Valadés's statement.
