“Gendarmerie Corporal Héctor Jesús Guerrero was prosecuted for aggravated firearm abuse for firing his tear gas pistol at photographer Pablo Grillo during a demonstration in front of Congress on March 12.
The decision was made by federal judge María Servini, who established that the Guerrero gendarme fired six shots, violating protocols for the use of this type of weapon, which fires tear gas canisters.
[...]
The judge considered that the defendant acted with eventual intent, that is, he considered the possibility of causing serious harm and accepted that risk by firing in an illegal manner."
