Woman says she was urged to intimidate judge handling David Sánchez investigation

Cintia Rocho alleges she received multiple calls urging her to threaten magistrate Beatriz Biedma, who is leading the probe into David Sánchez.

In a recent interview, Cintia Rocho of the Los Rochos clan reported receiving several phone calls that pressured her to harass Beatriz Biedma, the magistrate overseeing the David Sánchez case. The callers allegedly supplied detailed information about Biedma’s residence, vehicle and gym routine, suggesting an attempt to manipulate Rocho into targeting the judge. Rocho, whose husband was shot dead in a bar and whose father later died in a road incident, said she suspects a larger scheme behind the messages.

She declined to reveal the identities of the two individuals, who presented themselves as a judge and an attorney, and emphasized that her family has never acted against Biedma. Rocho affirmed her willingness to cooperate with authorities to find her husband’s killer.

Why it matters

The allegations reveal possible attempts to interfere with a high-profile judicial investigation in Spain.
