Comedian 'Guatón' from Los Atletas de la Risa announces lawsuit over wife's death, seeking justice

Juan Carlos Donoso, a comedian known as "Guatón" from the group Los Atletas de la Risa, has announced his family's intention to file a lawsuit against the Posta Central hospital. The family alleges medical negligence contributed to the death of his wife, Myriam Salazar.

“

We want justice, that they find the culprits and they can no longer practice.

Donoso stated that his wife was diagnosed with pancreatitis in early April. He claims the medical attention provided was insufficient, ultimately leading to a cardiac arrest. He is currently awaiting the autopsy certificate and other documents for a forensic expert.

"As a family, we want to file a criminal complaint. We don't want money and for the case to end; we want justice, that they find the culprits and they can no longer practice," Donoso told LUN. He emphasized that his motivation is not financial gain but a desire for accountability.

“

I live well, I don't need millions in exchange for my wife, we just want the feeling of justice.

"I live well, I don't need millions in exchange for my wife, we just want the feeling of justice. Who knows how many people have died from poor care in health centers," he added, expressing concern that others may have suffered similar fates due to inadequate medical treatment.
