The petitioner states that the child is severely traumatized, not only from the crime of which she was the victim, but also because of the arbitrary acts she suffered at the hands of the authorities. In that connection, she alleges that the child V.R.P. has received psychological and psychiatric care since October 2003 and that her symptoms are depression, anxiety, high alert, and self-mutilation because she thinks constantly of the sexual abuse.17 She also states that the psychiatrist who evaluated V.R.P. at the request of the Substitute Judge of Jinotega District Criminal Court considered that V.R.P. “will virtually always need (…) psychotherapeutic support, (…) [owing to] the physical and psychological injury suffered. (…) Therefore, so as not to further damage her, it is indicated to avoid revictimization of the patient, not allowing her to dwell on the memories of the act that occurred or the injury caused her, and not questioning her about it.”18 21. The petitioner also alleges violations of judicial guarantees and due process through the actions of the Assistant Prosecutor, since she did not attend the visual inspection and reconstruction of the facts, in guarantee of the rights of the child as a victim and witness in the process; did not repudiate the way in which the forensic medical examinations were conducted, and was not present at the November 2001 appeal hearing or the May 2002 appeal against the nullification of the jury’s acquittal.19 She states that she has filed complaints and applications against the Assistant Prosecutor in connection with the violation of her daughter’s constitutional guarantees, with the Inspector General’s Office of the Attorney General’s Office, and (on October 21, 2002) with the Prosecutor General of the Republic (on July 29, 2002); as well as complaints against different state officials, including the Judge 16 Communication from the petitioner of February 11, 2005, received in the IACHR Executive Secretariat on March 16, 2005. 17 Communication from the petitioner of January 10, 2005, annexing a communication of January 3, 2005, from the organization alleging that it gave psychological assistance to V.R.P. 18 See the document sent by the petitioner on the follow-up report of February 21, 2002, prepared by Dr. María Delma Terán Caldera of Victoria Motta of Jinotega Hospital, in a communication sent to the Substitute Judge of Jinotega Criminal District. 19 Document annexed to the communication of the petitioner, received on March 16, 2005 by the IACHR Executive Secretariat. 7
