The Sancho Case

A phone call alerted Rodolfo Sancho that his son had just been arrested in Thailand, accused of murdering and dismembering a Colombian doctor. Daniel Sancho had confessed to a heinous crime which, according to Thai law, was subject to the death penalty.

A major cultural clash between Thailand and Spain further complicates the investigation of this dark occurrence. Rodolfo Sancho becomes not only a father willing to do everything for his son, but also the principal investigator into the facts.

Only eight months after what took place, the trial begins in Thailand. A trial that turned into a true roller coaster ride, causing optimism between the parties to swing back and forth for days.
