It would be difficult to find such a narrow alley, through which even two people cannot pass at the same time, which has received so much attention in the last two days, as an authentic pilgrimage center for teenagers, without there being no relics. venerate. The sad crime scene, the hidden corner where Chloe was stabbed to death by her ex-boyfriend Orihuelaa tragic and dark metaphor for how his life was unfairly cut short when he was just fifteen years old.
“It was very GOODalways gave everything for everyone, also very shy And Good“. This is how one of her closest friends described her yesterday, with whom she shared confidences about her intimate life, while observing the candles, flowers and posters that her loved ones placed at the The precise location where Samuel allegedly caused cuts to his neck. and other parts of the body, in the La Florida urbanization, in the coastal area of this municipality of Alicante.
However, he shares the view of other colleagues that both the perpetrator and the victim suffered from obvious disagreements. “It was a toxic relationship“But I didn’t expect that either, it’s a girl,” she admits sadly. How were these tensions perceived? »The typical jealousy in a relationship, ‘don’t go out like that’ or ‘don’t go out with her’, even though she didn’t say it in front of me”, recounts this young woman to whom Chloé confided her concerns: “She told me , that it was wrong, that she needed her time to get over things, what he had done to her, he had cheated on her twice.” Given these infidelities and given his state of mind, he ordered her to break up. »I told him ‘leave itit’s good, there is lots of boys“A lot of loves, even if you can’t forget it and can’t bear it, let it go,” she recalls now, regretting not paying attention to this friend’s advice.
Despite these internal tensions within the couple, his behavior towards others did not suggest such a violent angry reaction. “I didn’t understand anything, I’ve known Samuel for years, he was very nice to us, he had had his personal and family problems for a long time, but he was a good child,” she describes, corroborated by another . boy who accompanied him.
“Justice”
In the movement of classmates at the Playa Flamenca Secondary Education Institute, as soon as classes end, at two in the afternoon, the largest group arrives with silent and discouraged faces, expressions of distress , and they do not want to comment “at this time.”
They preferred to express their regrets on a notebook page: “Rest in peace, Chloé. Tea we will miss of less and we will love you forever. Fly high, pretty. Support for family and friends.” The emotional message is decorated with many little hearts drawn in pen. Next to it, a cardboard shouts “Justice for Chloé”.
For now, the detainee was transferred yesterday to the Alicante court, where the Prosecutor’s Office of Minorsby providing for this type of violent death a measure of internmentnot yet eighteen years old.
As usually happens in many conflicts, some friends of the “Samu” have a radically different vision of what happened and, although they do not excuse for a second his criminal act, they assured that it was he who was unhappy and under pressure in his love. relationship. To the point that we learned at the institute that he was looking for “a weapon because he wanted to commit suicide”. However, they cannot explain in this case why this did not end their relationship, since it is proven that it was Chloe who left him and, a priori, it seems that this is where the trigger of the crime, because the message of breakup he barely arrived two days before of that fatal date in the alley. Likewise, the hypothesis that he was suffering or could have been a victim when he came to her armed with a knife does not fit well.
“He defended me when they wanted to hit me”
A mood that has nothing to do with that of his victim, as another younger student from the same educational center testified yesterday, moved by the memory of his support in an extreme situation: “I they wanted to hit once and she it helped me“. “I didn’t know her, but being a mother, there are no words to say that, when it touches you so hard,” adds the parent, impressed by the tragedy and feeling empathy with the family.
This emotional impact in the classrooms, where they have never experienced such a heartbreaking episode, led to the dispatch of specialists to offer psychological support to students.
At the IES Playa Flamenca they paid tribute on Monday to this tragically deceased student with a wall placed at the entrance to the building and a few words in his memory. The teaching staff and many students maintained a discreet silence when facing the media.
“Impossible to imagine what this mother feels”
“I am the father of three children and we can have an idea, but to say that we can know what feelNo; that mother alone…, it’s impossible to imagine That’s about it,” said a man as he accompanied one of his daughters to say goodbye to her partner.
A few minutes earlier, without him knowing it, in the middle of the morning they had visited this sort of mourning altar, with some stuffed animals and other souvenir objects, precisely the mother of Chloe and her brotherdiscouraged by pain and crying, after begging two media I respect to your confidentiality at these times, before returning to his home in the neighboring street.
It is shocking to imagine how the fifteen-year-old girl was able to walk the more than two hundred meters from where she was stabbed to this house where she was desperately seeking help. Although her brother took her to the hospital, she did not survive her neck injury. Two days later, on the two streets connected by this passage, neighbors looked on with curiosity and without understanding what was happening. Foreigners predominate and shake their heads in response to the fact that they knew or had seen Chloe, without knowing how to speak Spanish.
