K leader will not be able to hold any office in her lifetime and will go to prison for six years. The reaction on social media

The most anticipated news was confirmed this afternoon. Cristina Fernández de Kirchner was finally convicted in the Vialidad case for defrauding the State through public works contracts during her administration. 

The Supreme Court determined that the twice president must serve six years in prison and will be permanently disqualified from holding public office. Meanwhile, the sentence includes the forfeiture of approximately 84,000 million pesos (approximately 185,188,000 USD).

Therefore, her latest candidacy in the province of Buenos Aires was ruled out and she must remain at her residence to serve house arrest.

The court, composed of Horacio Rosatti (president), Carlos Rosenkrantz (vice president), and Ricardo Lorenzetti, rejected the nine appeals filed by the defense teams. Therefore, the appeals were not reviewed, as it was understood that none of the evidence presented by the former president's defense was accepted.

The first to celebrate this news was Javier Milei, who wrote on his X account: "Justice. End. PS: the Republic works and all the corrupt journali$ts, accomplices of lying politician$, have been exposed in their operations about the supposed impunity pact".

"No one is above the law. That is the Republic"; "Historic. The sentence is in and Cristina is convicted. 6 years of actual prison and forfeiture of her assets. THANK YOU JAVO" and "Let us remember that Cristina Fernández de Kirchner, besides being corrupt, is a nefarious murderer who mocked the victims of Once after the tragedy," were some of the messages with which citizens not only expressed support for the conviction, but also recalled all the harm that Kirchnerism did to the Argentine nation for more than 12 years.
