Valeria, a young woman who has been sleepwalking since childhood, was assaulted by a stranger in a hotel room in San Luis Potosí, raising concerns about potential complicity with the perpetrator due to his connections.
A disturbing incident occurred in a Hyatt hotel in San Luis Potosí where a 28-year-old woman named Valeria, who has a history of sleepwalking, woke up to find herself in a hotel room with a man she did not know and with signs of sexual assault. The event unfolded in the early hours of September 28, 2025, when hotel security footage captured Valeria leaving her room and interacting with various doors before eventually entering room 616, where the accused was located. Such a scenario raises significant alarms not only about Valeria's safety but also about the hotel’s security protocols.
The accused, identified as Guillermo Baeza, is the nephew of one of Mexico's wealthiest individuals, leading some to suspect that his familial ties might afford him undue protection against prosecution. Lawyers representing Valeria have pointed out possible complicity between Baeza and the local government, casting doubt on the investigation's integrity and suggesting that political influence could obstruct justice.
This case brings to light the potentially grave implications of privilege and power in sexual assault cases, especially in regions where wealthy individuals can manipulate legal systems to their advantage. It highlights the urgent need for reforms in how such allegations are handled, ensuring that all victims receive equal treatment under the law and that their voices are heard, regardless of the perpetrator's background.
