44 year old Antonio Ángel Ortiz Martínez, known as the Ciudad Lineal paedophile, has been sent to prison for 70 years and six months for four sexual aggressions on four girls between 24 September 2013 and 22 August 2014. The man in custody has been informed and has the right to appeal to the Second Hall of the Supreme Court.
Ortiz was processed for four sexual aggressions on children, four illegal kidnappings, an attempted homicide and causing serious injuries. The Prosecutor had requested 77 years and six months, while the family’s lawyers wanted 126 years and three months.
The fiscal ministry wanted a compensation set at 423,300 €, while the family wanted 690,000 €.
The judgement in the seventh section of the Madrid Provincial Court was opened on 18 Oct and ended on 15 Dec, after 24 sessions. During which the testimonies of the four girls were taken as a pre-built right. The detectives who participated in the investigation and the policemen who made the arrest, and technicians and psychologists were in attendance.
The accused remained silent until he was granted the last word ‘I have absolutely nothing to do with this, I only say I am innocent’ he ended after rambling for 17 minutes.
His first aggression was on 24 Sept 2013, when he approached a five year old girl in a children’s park in San Blas (Madrid).
The second occurred on 10 April 2014 when a nine year old girl was playing with another two girls, came out of a sweet shop in Ciudad lineal. His strategy was to promise the victim new clothes. He then drugged her with some narcotic (supposedly Orfidal or generic), took her to his home and then sexually abused her. He abandoned her at the entrance to the Metro station in Canillejas.
The third aggression was two months later when Ortiz went to 22 Calle de Luis Ruiz in the district o Ascao (Madrid) where a six year old girl was playing in the street and he kidnapped her.
After sexually abusing her and forced her into the shower he abandoned her at 23:30 in another part of the district. The child had to be admitted to the La Paz hospital for several days before she had recovered.
The last aggression was produced on the afternoon of 22 August 2014 when he kidnapped a 7 year old Spanish girl of Dominican origin in the Hortaleza district of Madrid around 18:30. Nearly he had purchased some goods and this time he changed his modus operandi leaving her fully conscious during the aggression. He dumped her at 19:50 on waste ground in San Blas.
Ortiz was arrested on 24 September 2014 in his uncle’s house in Santander by agents from the Special Operations Group (GEO). The operation was codenamed ‘Candy’ and the sexual predator was monitored for several weeks and had been known in the capital for many decades. He was immediately taken to Madrid, placed in an Identity Parade and was recognised by the victims.
