Hermenegildo Acosta arrested for killing stepson in Córdoba
In the northern Córdoba province of Argentina, 35-year-old Hermenegildo Acosta and his 17-year-old son have been arrested for the murder of 16-year-old Lautaro Córdoba. The incident occurred at a rural property known as Higuera Vieja, near Copacabana.
The crime was discovered after the victim's mother, Antonella Vanesa Torres, reported domestic violence and threats to local authorities. Upon arriving at the residence, police found the teenager deceased with multiple injuries and evidence of gunfire.
Acosta, a TikTok creator with over 63,000 followers, reportedly claimed during his arrest that his partner and stepson were “possessed by the demon” and were attempting to kill him. He has been charged with homicide qualified by treachery and aggravated by the participation of a minor, while his son faces charges of qualified homicide.
