The trial regarding the abduction of Loan Danilo Peña, a six-year-old boy from Corrientes, will be overseen by three judges with significant experience in federal law. Among them, only one judge, Fermín Amado Ceroleni, hails from the local jurisdiction, while the other two judges, Eduardo Ariel Belforte from Formosa and Simón Pedro Bracco from Río Negro, are appointed substitutes. The proceedings are yet to have a confirmed start date, but a preliminary hearing is scheduled for February 27, where all parties involved in the process will appear.

The federal prosecutor Carlos Schaefer and his team, assisted by six other auxiliary prosecutors, will lead the accusation alongside representatives from the Attorney General's Office for Trafficking and Exploitation of Persons. Recently, the prosecution has streamlined the list of potential witnesses and plans to request that a total of 161 individuals testify during the trial, emphasizing the extensive nature of the case due to its complexities and the number of involved parties.

This case has garnered notable attention in Argentina due to its unfortunate nature and the involvement of several accused parties. As the judicial process unfolds, it underscores the ongoing issues surrounding abduction cases and the challenging dynamics law enforcement faces in ensuring justice and protecting vulnerable individuals. The decisions made by the court will likely resonate well beyond this case, impacting public perception of state handling of such crimes.
