Former River bar William Schlenker married Samanta Farjat in prison

seven months ago William Schlenkersentenced to life imprisonment for the crime of Gonzalo Acro in 2007 in the middle of the inmate of the River bar, broke the silence with infobae. There, in addition to claiming his innocence, he left a disturbing phrase: “If in two years they don’t review my sentence and release me, I’ll kill myself.” But now, while he is preparing a new appeal before the Supreme Court to try to prove that he had nothing to do with the fact, he looks at life in a different way or for now that is clear from one of his last acts: He married Samanta Farjat in the civil registry of Marcos Pazwith whom he had been dating for some time.

The event occurred on Last December 27 at 1:30 p.m. in the building located at the intersection of Catamarca and Ramón Melgar streets in said locality with the intervention of the authorities of the criminal execution court number one and the Federal Penitentiary Complex Number 2, which is the famous prison of Marcos Paz where he has been detained since May 2016 when the Criminal Cassation Chamber confirmed his life sentence for having instigated the crime of Acro.

The news was kept in a very low profile because Schlenker assures that his objective is not to appear in the media for this reason but to denounce what he assures is an injustice towards his actions. In fact, his close circle highlights the difference between his marriage and his brother’s, Alan Schlenkerwho He married his girlfriend Patricia in the Trelew prison in March 2022 and made a intimate party in jail dressed in River’s shirt and uploaded the videos to their social networks giving an account of the event. The older Schlenker is also trying to turn around his legal situation, but in his case, requesting the intervention of the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights.

Of course, William’s new wife also has a past in the media. Samanta Farjat She became famous in the 1990s when she was barely 19 years old and was one of the witnesses of the so-called “Coppola Case”, the case that led Diego Maradona’s former manager to prison for three months, accused of illegal possession of narcotic drugs for commercialization after the discovery of almost half a kilo of cocaine in a vase in his apartment on Avenida Libertador. That case fell after it was proven that the drug was planted by the Police in collusion with the federal judge of Dolores, Hernán Bernasconi, who ended up sentenced for this and six other acts to nine years in prison.

At that time, Farjat was starring with Natalia Denegri in programs on the subject that had historical ratings peaks in America TV. He even had his own song composed by the musician Machito Ponce that was a hit on the radio and nightclubs. But so much time later, Samanta asks for the right to be forgotten. So much so that before the consultation of infobae about his marriage, He only agreed to confirm it but did not want to elaborate further. Yes, on the other hand, she asked that her new husband be heard and her reasons for getting his life sentence annulled and released. In fact, Farjat assured that they are in talks with two lawyers to file a review appeal before the Supreme Court of Justice where new testimonies from many close to the cause will be offered where they will make it clear that William had nothing to do with it and with these new elements they will try to unlink him.

Because the youngest of the Schlenkers continues to affirm his innocence. In that note that he gave to infobae seven months ago he stated that he had not been in any of the previous meetings where the judges assure that the crime was planned and that he never had influence in the bar. The latter for the insiders of the rostrum was one hundred percent real: the paravalanche was dominated by his brother Alan and Adrián Rousseau and William had no decision-making power. But on the night that Acro was murdered, he was in a car with his brother and two other bars, Maximiliano Pluto Lococo (sentenced to ten years as a secondary participant in the murder) and Rubén Rodríguez, who testified in court that he felt that they used him as bait to have an exculpatory hypothesis. Added to this was the fact that he had two calls with those who carried out the crime, but at an earlier time. With that probative material he was convicted. William always swore innocence stating that he did not need to order the death of the person he had kicked out of the bar and that it was impossible for him to incite Colorado Ariel Luna (material author) or any other member of those who surrounded Acro given his low relevance in the decisions of the bar and with the criminal record of the members of that group, nicknamed La Banda de Palermo.

Now, through his wife, he sends other details to infobae with which he tries to move the judicial decision. “I was not in the place, I did not speak with the author, I did not provide the weapon, I was not in the previous meetings of the bar. This conviction is incredible. In addition, after the Chamber confirmed my sentence, one of the judges in the room, Gustavo Hornos, came out to speak and boasted that he had solved the Acro case, that he had been killed in Núñez from a motorcycle, when it was in Villa Urquiza and Luna and Oveja (Rubén Pintos) got out of a utility vehicle. Which shows that he never read the case, he only carried out an order that came from above, because if he read it to me he would have to revoke my sentence. In fact, Judge Figueroa ruled in a minority in my favor, but of course, the Schlenkers had to be convicted even if they had nothing. Later they said that my motivation to kill him is that in the famous fight of the quinchos (NdR: February 11, 2007, prior to a match against Lanús, the day the two groups of the bar faced each other for the first time) he beat me But I did break everything that afternoon! They wanted to make Gonzalo appear like a saint and he stabbed people on the beach (NdR: another confrontation in River, on May 6, 2007, at the end of a River-Independiente), including Luna’s compadre and that’s why they were to search and they took revenge. I wasn’t there I was sentenced for my last name. Also note that Sergio el Pelado Piñeiro was given a life sentence and he has been a fugitive since then, they are not even going to look for him because by putting the Schlenkers in jail he was already there. You are covering the trial of Di Zeo who also came to the bench for having instigated two crimes and since the prosecutor cannot prove it, he asks for a lesser sentence (NdR: the prosecutor asked for four years, it is defined this Thursday). In the same situation, they give me a life sentence. It is understood? That is why I want the Supreme Court to review my case, as it did with Carrascosa for the crime of María Marta, for example. Because I have nothing to do with it and I have been in prison for almost nine years even though I am innocent”, cries William Schlenker from the Marcos Paz prison, seeking to change his story along with the change in his marital status.
