The night fame suffocated the truth: The murder of Doris Adriana NiñoEarly morning in May 1997 in Boyacá. Three farmers see a man throwing the body of a woman from a white vehicle and disappearing into the darkness. The corpse arrives at the morgue unidentified, buried under a false alias. A piece of paper in her pocket contains the exact address of Diomedes Díaz's apartment, the biggest vallenato star in Colombia.In this episode, we explore how a first autopsy determined overdose, but a second autopsy revealed mechanical asphyxia with bruises, lacerations, and fluids from three different men. We analyze the unauthorized changed carpet, the forged documents of the bodyguard, and why a bodyguard confessed guilt while Diomedes received only three effective years in prison for pre-intentional homicide.Victim: Doris Adriana Niño Date: May 14-15, 1997 Location: Apartment 501, Plaza de Navarra, Bogotá; Tunja-Convita area, Boyacá Status: Closed with reduced sentence; post-mortem abuse never investigated - The body was identified 27 days later by an anonymous viewer; during that time, it was buried under the name "Sandra" by unknown individuals. - The second autopsy (1999) completely contradicts the first (1997), but it is this one that the Supreme Court validated for sentencing. - The bodyguard Osvaldo Álvarez Rueda forged vehicle maintenance records, claiming he was in Bucaramanga that morning. - Diomedes was granted parole after serving only 3 years and 7 months of an initial 12-year sentence.
