Sources: 11. Developments: 2. Authorities in Alvear, Corrientes, are investigating the death of 16-year-old Cecilia Emilce Lezcano. While the death was initially suspected to be a suicide, investigators shifted the case to a premeditated homicide following the discovery of incriminating evidence, including security footage and cell phone messages. A 16-year-old male classmate was detained as the alleged material author of the crime. The investigation expanded to include a 17-year-old female accused as a co-author in the killing. A judge ruled that this female suspect will remain free while undergoing psychological treatment and relocating to Santo Tomé. This judicial decision has faced criticism from the victim’s family, who had requested the suspect be held in a juvenile detention center. Security footage from Alvear has assisted investigators in reconstructing the events that led to the killing at a train station on July 16. ## Timeline ### 2026-09-02: Argentina: Legal updates in Córdoba release and Corrientes murder case Argentine courts have released Paola Ortiz after 14 years in prison due to overlooked socio-economic factors, while a teen co-author in a Corrientes schoolmate murder remains free under strict conditions. 11 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/argentina-court-orders-teenager-accused-in-killing-to-relocate-and-undergo-therapy ### 2026-08-13: Corrientes authorities investigate planned murder of 16-year-old student Police in Corrientes, Argentina, are investigating the premeditated murder of 16-year-old Cecilia Lezcano after a classmate was detained following evidence that contradicts an initial suicide theory. 3 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/corrientes-authorities-investigate-planned-murder-of-16-year-old-student --- Cite as: Homicide investigation in Alvear, Corrientes.
