The legal nightmare that Gloria Trevi thought she had buried two decades ago has resurfaced with devastating force. This week, the Embassy of Mexico in Argentina was officially notified of the beginning of a new investigation into human trafficking, child exploitation, and slavery against the singer, Sergio Andrade and Mary Boquitas. The secret file that puts Gloria Trevi in a tight spot again. The case, which promises to be the media scandal of the year, focuses on the complaint of the Argentine victim Liliana Regueiro. Argentine justice has now requested Mexico's active participation to put an end to decades of possible impunity. But the scandal does not end there. According to journalist María Idalia Gómez, this file is not new, but it had been frozen for years due to the alarming lack of cooperation from Mexican authorities, as well as those of Spain, Chile, and Brazil. The reopening of the case puts judicial corruption in Mexico under the microscope. It has been denounced that the former judge Javier Pineda, who acquitted Trevi in Chihuahua, did not even have a professional license at the time of issuing his ruling. With a 'social clamor in Latin America' demanding justice, experts warn of a 'very turbulent semester' for the interpreter. Furthermore, recent testimonies from victims such as Marlene Calderón describe Pineda as a 'misogynist, libidinous, and reckless' man, which casts serious doubts on the impartiality of his original sentence. The controversy intensifies after irregularities were revealed in Trevi's current lawsuits against other victims, such as Carla de la Cuesta, where the personal data of witnesses would have been leaked illegally. Are we facing the end of the freedom of the 'Sun' of controversies or will the links between entertainment and power prevail again?
