Surviving a police officer convicted of abuse: "When I told him to leave my house, the greatest ordeal of my life began"
Maribel's ex-husband, a local police officer in Motril, is in prison for abusing her. The woman recounts how he used his position to spy on and intimidate her and her daughters.
Maribel divorced her husband, local police officer Víctor G. B., in 2022. Following their separation, she and her two daughters endured a harrowing period, which began when she decided to leave him in July 2023. Over the past three years, the perpetrator employed a sophisticated technological system to spy on and harass her, repeatedly violating the restraining order imposed by the court.
Maribel, a 53-year-old psychologist, recounted her ordeal with EL PAÍS after her ex-partner began serving a 29-month sentence for common violence and mental abuse.
