Lupe Fuentes Saves A Fan
Posted by: sup69
Lupe Fuents saves a fan from a 20 year sentence in jail. Carlos Simon Timmerman was set to face a 20 year sentence for possession of illegal possession and transportation of images involving minors – under the age of 18 – engaged in sexually explicit conduct. Carlos was on a trip in Valenzuela and came across some early movies of Lupe at a local flea market. He purchased them DVD and was arrested while returning home on August 11, 2009, on a stopover in San Juan, Puerto Rico. The DVD, Little Lupe the Innocent: Don’t Be Fooled By Her Baby Face, among other DVDs, was seized by the United States government and Carlos was arrested.
He spent nearly two months in jail and his public defenders were seemingly defeated. The Federal Government and the United States Attorneys Office presented the testimony of a Special Agent of Immigration and Customs Enforcement that deals with child pornography and child exploitation cases. She testified that Lupe was “definitely” under the age of 18. The government then presented the testimony of a pediatrician, who also assured the courts that she was 100% sure that Lupe was underage.
Just when it seemed like all hope was lost, Carlos’ legal team contact Lupe via myspace and she flew down to Puerto Rico on April 7th, 2010 and provided the jury and judge with copies of documents showing her birth date, and dates of production for the Little Lupe DVD. The prosecution’s case was discredited and they moved to dismiss all charges against Carlos.
Here’s a bit of statistic for you all: Of all criminal cases in Puerto Rico, only about 3% go to trial. Of those, only 1-2% will win with the help of a public defender.
Now Carlos can finally go home and enjoy his Lupe DVD that has cost him so much.
