Eva Casanueva, mother of Marta del Castillo: "When Carcaño is released, society will understand that the sentence is ours"

Eva Casanueva, mother of Marta del Castillo, gave an interview to the press in which she described the family's daily life as marked by "sorrow, pain and anger." The mother expressed feelings of "helplessness and emptiness," stating that these words summarize everything they have felt since their daughter disappeared 17 years ago.

Marta del Castillo was 17 years old when she vanished on that fateful January morning of 2009, in the city of Seville. Since then, the question remains unanswered: where is Marta? Her body was never found.

After nearly two decades, Eva Casanueva stated that when the confessed murderer, Miguel Carcaño, is released, society will understand that "the sentence is ours." This declaration highlights the family's persistent pain, who continue not knowing the whereabouts of the young woman.

The case of Marta del Castillo remains unresolved, remaining one of Spain's most publicized investigations. The family has been waiting for 17 years for answers that don't seem to come, while time passes without bringing closure to the case.
