Remembering Our Dead

Carolina Angulo Paredes ("Camila")

Carolina was shot in the chest by two men on a motorcycle.

At the time she was working on the street near a service station in the early hours of the morning.

“Carolina fell to the side, but she was conscious, she even sat to one side and lay down. I asked that you please help her. The police and the ambulance came, but she was lying there without assistance for quite some time. The girls tried to help her. She died minutes before 8 in the morning at the Evita hospital in Berazategui. If someone had taken her in the moment, maybe she could have lived.”

Both assailants were finally arrested in August 2018.

Note that some reports give her age as 25, and others as 34 and in some reports she is named as Camila Paredes.
