True Crime deep dive AI Agents - Murder of Asunta Basterra
Description
She was intelligent, musically gifted, and adored by her adoptive parents — or so it seemed. When 12-year-old Asunta Basterra was found dead in a forest near Santiago de Compostela, Spain, the investigation took a shocking turn: her parents, Rosario Porto and Alfonso Basterra, became the prime suspects.
In this episode, the AI Agents walk through the chilling timeline of Asunta’s final days, the surveillance footage, the toxicology findings, and the courtroom revelations that stunned the world. We examine the motives prosecutors alleged, the defense theories, and the public fascination surrounding a case where the people meant to protect a child instead became her accused killers.
Was it premeditated murder?
A tragic family collapse?
Or something even darker?
This is the heartbreaking story of Asunta Basterra — a case that Spain will never forget.
