22 That Saturday she noticed that Walter David had not spent the night at home. The witness did her household chores. About 3:00 or 4:00 p.m. a boy came and said that Walter David had been arrested and they should go look for him. She went for her husband at work and from there they went to the police station, where they were told that Walter David was somewhere else. Finally, they found him at 11:00 p. m. or 12:00 p.m. of that same day, hospitalized. Walter David’s body is buried in a private cemetery; at first, it was in a public one. After her brother’s death, Lorena Beatriz Bulacio had many health problems. She suffered severe depression, then suffered bulimia and had to be hospitalized several times to save her life. She is currently 26 years old and is a young woman who “never goes outside her house.” Víctor David Bulacio, Walter’s father, was hardworking and contributed to the family financially. When the events took place, he went crazy and his life fell apart: he began to be absent from work, until his employers fired him, for which reason he did temporary jobs; he began to take drugs and left the household. He would not see his daughter Lorena Beatriz, because he said that it caused him great pain to see her and the witness, and that “he could not bear it.” Víctor David Bulacio also had temporary relations with other persons. As a result of one of those relations, he had two children: Matías Emanuel Bulacio and Tamara Florencia Bulacio, whom he and his new couple abandoned. Under those circumstances, Tamara Florencia, who was two and a half, was taken to live with Víctor David Bulacio’s mother and Matías Emanuel, who was a year and a half, was taken in by Lorena Beatriz Bulacio and the witness. These children remained “NN” for several years; before he died, Víctor David Bulacio requested recognition of his paternity of them. They then began to process the documents. Currently, Tamara Florencia and Matías Emanuel are in the process of being adopted, respectively, by the grandmother on their father’s side and by the witness, because the mother never returned. Now her mother-in-law and the witness are the legal representatives, respectively, of Matías Emanuel and Tamara Florencia. Víctor David Bulacio suffered two heart attacks and had to undergo what seemed like a simple operation, after which he died. The physician himself explained to the witness that “her husband simply did not want to continue living. This happened a few days before the ninth anniversary of the death of Walter” David. For María Ramona Armas de Bulacio, Walter David’s grandmother, he was her favorite grandchild and she suffered very much with his death. She represented the witness when she felt that she could not continue living, for example, participating in demonstrations. The family fell apart after what happened to Walter David: some of the bothers and sisters of the witness died as a consequence of patterns of depression, and her brothers-in-law also suffered health problems; one of Víctor David Bulacio’s sisters suffered a brain embolism shortly after Walter David’s demise. The response of the State, over all these years, was to “question the morality of the family.” They questioned what type of people the members of the family were and what type of person Walter David was: a criminal, a homosexual, a drug addict.
