- Puebla's Attorney General stated that the fake psychiatrist, Marilyn "N", has not reached a settlement with all her victims.
- Two out of eleven victims have refused to accept a compensatory agreement or grant judicial forgiveness.
- The Attorney General's office has advised victims against such agreements but respects their final decisions.
Puebla's Attorney General, Idamis Pastor Betancourt, has refuted claims that the alleged fake psychiatrist, Marilyn "N", has settled with all her victims. Marilyn "N" is accused of providing consultations and prescribing medication without the necessary qualifications.
Betancourt clarified that out of eleven identified victims, two have not agreed to a compensatory settlement or granted judicial forgiveness. The Attorney General's office has advised these victims against entering into such agreements, emphasizing that the final decision rests with the affected individuals.
"We as the Prosecutor's Office have insisted with the victims that they do not reach compensatory agreements with this perpetrator, but in the end, we cannot do more than guide the victims and ask them not to reach agreements with them," Betancourt stated.
The Attorney General also confirmed that the State Prosecutor's Office has two ongoing judicialized investigation files against Marilyn "N", independent of any federal investigation. These cases pertain to the charges for which she is currently being prosecuted and detained. Betancourt reiterated that it is incorrect to assume that all eleven victims have reached a settlement, as two individuals have yet to do so.
We as the Prosecutor's Office have insisted with the victims that they do not reach compensatory agreements with this perpetrator, but in the end, we cannot do more than guide the victims and ask them not to reach agreements with them.
