His testimony revealed that the physical and emotional sequels continue despite the passage of time. "My health is not 100% restored. I still have many wounds and many memories," she said, acknowledging that her life has completely changed since that night of April 8th. The survivor also denounced her frustration with the slowness of the judicial process. "I feel very powerless about how this case is being handled. There is still much to achieve," he stated, insisting that those responsible must be identified and brought before the courts without privileges or external pressures. Visibly affected, Ramírez remembered her deceased friend in the tragedy, with whom she shared last Christmas, and expressed that this absence makes the arrival of these dates even more painful. "December overwhelms me a lot, especially knowing that last December I was with my friend... and today she is not here. I know that many families feel the same way I do," she concluded. The mass brought together family members, friends, and social activists who demand that the judicial file move forward and that the State guarantee truth, transparency, and justice for the victims of one of the most tragic episodes in the country in recent years.
