Tragedy in Durango: The Death of 14-Year-Old Paloma Nicole
An unexpected case in Durango has sparked questions about medical ethics and family responsibility. The death of 14-year-old Paloma Nicole led to complaints and launched an ongoing judicial investigation. Her story reveals contradictions, conflicting testimonies, and a relentless demand for justice.
How It All Began
The events started with a routine COVID-19 scare. Paloma Nicole’s mother told Carlos Arellano, her father, that they would travel to the mountains of Durango to isolate, warning that there might be no signal. Carlos trusted her explanation, unaware that this was only the beginning of a nightmare.
“My girl’s mother told me they were going to the mountains for about four days. She said not to panic if I couldn’t reach them,” Carlos explained. At the time, nothing seemed unusual. But a few days later, he received a call that would change everything.
