The family of the activist, along with LGBT organizations, is demanding that the prosecutor's office treat it as a transfeminicide.
Due to a poor investigation, the murder of the young woman from Tucumán, who was killed in 2018, remains unpunished.
The Santa Fe court also charged the mother with child abandonment. Aldana was attacked on December 22, 2021, and admitted to Cullen Hospital on the 24th. No one investigated what happened until January 3, when she died.
The 22-year-old woman entered the establishment with a man who later left. LGBT organizations are denouncing the prosecutor's office for not investigating.
The young woman was murdered in 2018 and four years later one of the accused is going to trial.
This morning in the Santa Fe courts, a hearing was held regarding the hate crime against Alejandra Ironici. "It was a transfemicide," the prosecutor stated. She also applied the legal definition of femicide.

Mireya Rodríguez Lemus, a trans activist, was murdered in 2020 in Chihuahua. It was the first case to go to court that considered gender identity. How will the demand for justice for Mireya continue after the ruling that leaves the crime unpunished?
