Do you remember the case of Nadia Nerea, the solidarity scam that all Spain talked about? The Lleida Hearing has announced today the sentence that condemns the girl's parents for continued and aggravated scam. Condemns the father to five years and the mother to three and a half years in prison.
Her daughter Nadia is affected by ticotriodystrophy, a rare disease, and her parents used her to ask for money for her cure and for interventions supposedly essential for her to continue living. Something totally false, since his illness is not terminal. The judge considers that Fernando Blanco and Margarita Garau used their daughter's illness to raise hundreds of thousands of euros and use them for private purposes.

They are also ordered to pay compensation for each of the injured persons in the deception.
Recall that the Prosecutor's Office in Lleida asked for six years in jail for parents for allegedly keeping 1.1 million of the money donated to the Nadia Nerea Association, the foundation they created to raise funds to treat their daughter whose life they made believe that was at risk, but that would have been used for other purposes not related to the healing of the child.
A case that has done a lot of damage
The sentence shows that the girl has a rare disease that causes "skin disorders, ophthalmological and developmental and language disorder in a context of borderline intelligence." It has been a very popular case in Spain, since the parents had managed to convince athletes and other famous personalities to get involved in the campaign to save Nadia, and even contribute funds.
