Fofo Márquez Faces Trial Over Alleged Assault

Today, a crucial hearing is taking place to determine whether the YouTuber "Fofo" Márquez is guilty of physically assaulting a woman in mid-2024. Family, friends, and fans of the influencer have mobilized around the Control Courts in Tlalnepantla, State of Mexico, in support of him.

During the protest, phrases such as "There were injuries, not attempted murder" and "Tomorrow it could be you" were highlighted, arguing that the case should not be treated as an attempted feminicide, but rather as an aggression without intent to kill. Rodrigo Márquez, "Fofo"'s brother, expressed his opinion through a TikTok video, indicating that while his brother must take responsibility for his actions, he considers the accusation of attempted feminicide to be exaggerated.

The defense of "Fofo" Márquez seeks to discredit the feminicide accusation, while his opponents demand that he be judged according to the severity of the crime. In the fourth hearing of the oral trial, the charge of attempted feminicide against the influencer is being discussed. "Fofo"'s supporters staged a demonstration blocking the Periférico Norte to show support for the YouTuber, claiming that he is being unfairly accused. Images and videos of the demonstration have circulated on social media, showing "Fofo" Márquez's supporters with banners demanding justice for the influencer.
