The victim of the scam died on September 14, 2018, leaving her 17 niblings, including the accused, as universal heirs in equal parts.

Along with the five years in prison, the prosecution requests special disqualification from the right to passive suffrage during the time of the sentence, a fine of 11 to 12 euro per day, as well as the payment of compensation to the heirs of the entire amount of 181,364.37 euro.
