Judge Julieta Makintach recused herself from the trial of seven health professionals accused of negligence in Diego Maradona's death, following controversy over her appearance in a documentary. Prosecutors criticized her behavior, claiming she acted more like an actress than a judge. The trial, which began in March, examines the medical care given to Maradona, who died in 2020. The remaining judges will now determine if the trial should continue with a new judge or restart entirely.
Prosecutors allege that Maradona's death could have been avoided and described the care he received as "reckless, deficient and unprecedented."
