Yesterday, Wednesday May 7th, a guard at a mental health centre in Elda was sentenced to 12 years in prison and ordered to pay 12,000€ compensation for the periodic sexual assault of a patient.
According to the Valencian High Court of Justice (TSJCV), the prosecution accuses him of committing a continuous crime of sexual assault with penetration. The court has stated that he is accused of intermittently entering the user’s bedroom and sexually assaulting her.
During the summer of 2021 and June 2022, the defendant, according to the prosecution, exploited night shifts and entered the victim’s room on a weekly basis. The victim has been diagnosed with an illness that impairs her ability to exert her will.
The TSJCV stated that the man, who is alleged to be fully cognisant of the woman’s diagnosis, informed her on numerous occasions that she would deeply regret it if she disclosed the situation to anyone.
