Antonio Tejado's careful strategy for the trial: courses, confessions and no TV in prison

Antonio Tejado and five other detainees are in preventive detention after being accused of belonging to an organization dedicated to robberies with violence and intimidation in homes. The assaults include the one experienced on August 25 by María del Monte at her residence in Ginés, Seville, where they took high-value jewelry and cash from a safe after gagging and tying up the artist and her family.

The singer's nephew is in prison as he is considered by both the Civil Guard and the Prosecutor's Office in charge of the case to be the intellectual author of the robbery suffered by the singer. Tejado is experiencing the most complicated moment of his life, even more so knowing that his stay in prison will not be brief. However, the former television collaborator would already be planning his routine in prison, facing the trial, taking maximum care of his image.

This is what emerges from the information that has been filtered through various journalists and collaborators with direct sources in the environment of María del Monte's nephew, who affirm that he would have a defined line of action regarding his defense.

Among other things, improve your image in the eyes of public opinion as much as possible. The Sevillian does not enjoy much popularity, even less so since he was admitted to the Seville 1 prison and after it was discovered what he had allegedly done to his own aunt. Therefore, it seems that he would have begun to establish a routine worthy of the most exemplary student.

"He has started a marquetry course, he has resumed his forestry guard exams, he has asked the priest for help to go to mass and they have given him a rosary to say his prayers," revealed journalist Kike Calleja in Fiesta last weekend, sharing that the Sevillian would have even asked not to have access to the media. "He has asked not to have TV in his cell, because he doesn't want to listen to anything."

With this routine, Antonio Tejado would try to reorganize his life and try to establish order and routines in prison. The Sevillian has maintained his innocence from the first moment, and will continue to do so until the trial.

His aunt, María del Monte, has also asked that the presumption of innocence be respected while justice does its work. The singer declared a few days ago in the Seville courts that she had been harmed by the assault on her home, and avoided talking about her nephew, asking for prudence and demanding the collaboration of the media to resume her life, which passes for "power leave the house normally."

So far, only María José, mother of Antonio, his brother, Chema; and Tejado's current girlfriend, Samara, have remained by the Sevillian's side. Numerous former colleagues have given their opinion in the media, stating that "it was seen coming" that Tejado could end up that way.

Their former partners, such as Alba Muñoz or Candela Acevedo, have gone to television sets to share the "hell" they experienced while they were in a relationship with Tejado, who a few years ago also confessed to having an addiction problem that he was trying to solve. .
