SANTO DOMINGO. The District Attorney for the National District asked the First Collegiate Tribunal of the Penal Chamber of the Court of the First Instance to impose sentences of five years on Sobeida Felix Morel, 20 years each for her former husband Eddy Brito, Mary Pelaez Frappier, Sammy Dauhajre, Juan Jose Fernandez Ibarra and Ivanovich Smester.
Likewise, they asked for ten year sentences and a fine of 200 minimum wages and travel restrictions for Madeline Bernard Peña and Adolfina Revecca Pelaez Frappier (Dolphy).
The request to judges Gisselle Mendez, July Tamariz and Tania Yunes also covers the seizure of more than 80 assets of properties and articles worth more than RD$910 million.
The deputy prosecutors Wendy Lora, Agustin de la Cruz, Milciades Guzman and Ybo Rene Sanchez requested that the magistrates convict the accused on all counts of criminal association and money laundering.
They also asked that Brito, Mary Pelaez, Sammy Dauhajre, Smester and Fernandez Ibarra be fined 200 minimum salaries each and that their preventive custody remain in effect.
The five year sentence and a fine of 50 minimum wages for Sobeida Felix Mores is based on the fact that the lover of the Puerto Rican capo Jose David Figueroa Agosto admitted her participation in the events, reported and clarified the participation of each one of the defendants in the ring of laundering money from drug trafficking and cooperated with authorities.
The Justice Department gave a summation of the events for which it was requesting the sentence of each of the accused.
They indicated that 39 days after having fled from the Rio Piedras Jail in Puerto Rico, Figueroa Agosto obtained a second identity in this country with which he began his criminal activities from hiding.
They said that this allows one to infer that he had from the beginning the support of the country. They called the evidence of the criminal actions that resulted from the activities of Figueroa Agosto against the accused irrefutable, because without their participation it would have been impossible to launder so many millions of pesos.
The Justice Department argued that they were able to prove the facts regarding the purchase of luxury vehicles, sumptuous properties, such as apartments, villas and lots, as well as profiting from their criminal activities.
The prosecutors recalled that there is another case that is going on in a different courtroom and that is associated with the alleged work of paid assassins that was carried out by persons that supposedly answered to the orders of Figueroa Agosto.
The tribunal recessed until Wednesday at 9 o'clock in the morning, and will continue with the final defense arguments.
