Media attention surrounding Rosa Peral, convicted of the murder of her partner Pedro Rodríguez, has reached unprecedented levels. Netflix's new content, in the form of a documentary and series, has once again put the focus on this crime that was committed in 2017 and which involves three members of the Urban Police.
The LaSexta Investigative Team program has shed light on the exchanges of messages between Rosa and Albert López, lover and patrol partner, shortly before the execution of the crime at Peral's house in Cubelles.
"You are a liar and a fake and you don't have the balls to tell the truth," read the first message that Albert sent to Rosa when he discovered that she was in a simultaneous relationship with Pedro. "You've been lying to me for months and I'm not going to forgive you. You're a treacherous rat. Luckily, your face doesn't lie. We won't go on patrol again or anything, forget it," she continued.
The anger expressed in these messages changed tone over the following months. Albert later wrote to her: "I am ashamed of how I faced your loss, I have cried so much.... Until yesterday I was unable to think of you without crying." According to the analysis of the program's forensic psychologist, the change in attitude would be a strategy to appeal to Rosa's compassion: "He wants to play at being her victim's lover who wants her to feel sorry for him so he can get back to her."
The revelation of these messages has provided new information about the psychodynamics between Rosa and Albert, further complicating the already convoluted case. She, who is still in the Tarragona prison where she is serving her sentence, has always maintained that her lover, as shown in the messages, was very volatile and would have committed Pedro's murder alone motivated by jealousy. her.
