This Wednesday the image that many had been waiting to see for a month was produced. Rodolfo Sancho has traveled to Thailand to visit his son Daniel, accused of murdering and dismembering the Colombian Edwin Arrieta in the Asian country, and where he remains in prison awaiting trial.
The case acquired a media tinge from the first moment and that is why the media waited at the doors of the Koh Samui prison, where Daniel Sancho is being held, to collect Rodolfo's first statements upon his release. The actor had a three-hour meeting with his son before responding to the microphones.
During his appearance, the interpreter has been cold and has made it clear to those present that they were not going to "get tears" from him. He also assures that such an event can be taken "as a misfortune or as a challenge." Some words that have not gone down well with everyone, especially after Rodolfo himself conveyed his condolences to the Arrieta family.
Social networks burned minutes after hearing the statements from Daniel Sancho's father, calling them "unfortunate" or "arrogant". Also on television programs that have followed the case with interest in recent weeks, such as En boca de todos.
The psychologist Ana Villarrubia intervened in Cuatro's space to show her disbelief at Rodolfo's words. "I don't understand them beyond a context in which I think he is overwhelmed," she said. Nacho Abad, host of the program this Wednesday, was even harsher: "I am very perplexed by what happened today at the gates of the prison, very very perplexed," he confessed.
These words contrast with those spoken by Gema Fernández in Así es la vida, on Telecinco. The collaborator calls the actor's statement "unfortunate," but she quickly justified what she said. "I know that he has reacted directly to something that has occurred in the press, and that is that Daniel's creation has been made public, something that has deeply angered him," he alluded to the exclusive information released last Monday in And Now Sonsoles.
