Biography

Background

Pablo attended Las Encinas upon being given a scholarship. In 2016, Pablo (aged 17) and Marina (aged 14) engaged in a sexual relationship, not knowing that he had HIV, resulting in her getting infected. After Marina's older brother, Guzmán, found out that Marina had been infected, he arranged for him and his friends, Polo and Ander to beat up Pablo. On the afternoon of April 12, 2016, they waited for Pablo to leave class. They then took him into the changing room and Guzmán violently attacked him. At the time of the attack, Polo and Ander only knew that Pablo was in a relationship with Marina, not that he infected her with HIV.

After the attack, Pablo left the school. Guzmán and Marina's father bribed him to not report the attack to the police.
