Furthermore, the inspector stressed that a conscious person could have easily gotten out of the container and has recognized the difficulty of finding Agostina’s remains at the Son Reus waste plant, where Tons of garbage are deposited and incinerated daily.
Researchers do not know why jumped into the containerbut it could be that he dropped his cell phone. The Police did geolocate the terminal inside.
accidental death
The head of Police Operations in the Balearic Islands, Fernando Reboyras, stated this Thursday that investigators conclude that the cause of Agostina’s death was accidental.
The police have tracked the cell phone and viewed the images from all the cameras in the area. In the last one you see Agostina around midnight next to some containers and the bus stop that was to take her home, in Palmanova, near the Balearic capital.
Shortly before, he had posted a photo of himself on social media in a place where he was with his friends.
Before arriving at the bus stop bought a bag of chips at a store and the employee observed “a certain intoxication” in his attitude. The Police have highlighted the young woman’s “low tolerance for alcohol.”
Agostina never got on the bus but a witness who was in the area saw a bag and a leopard-type blouse “perfectly placed” at the foot of one of the containers.
This order leads the police to think that Agostina voluntarily went into one of the containers and rules out the intervention of third parties.
Mobile tracking locates the device inside a container and then in a municipal company waste collection truck.
The cell phone remained active until the truck arrived at the incinerator and it went out two hours later, right on the access platform before the waste incineration.
The police have not speculated on when Agostina might have lost her life, but they have noted that in the cleaning trucks the garbage is compacted and a person could die from asphyxiation.
With judicial authorization, the police paralyzed activity at the plant and began searching for remains in a sealed room in which there were 12 thousand tons of waste.
The search will continue over the next few days and they are analyzing some remains that could be humanbut it is not certain that they belong to this girl who went out to spend an afternoon with her friends and did not return home.
