He found out his father had ab*sed his family for decades. Three days later, the man was d**d.

Moisés Martínez, 28, visited his mother in the city of Paysandú — and for the first time in his life, she told him the truth about what his father, Carlos Martínez, had done to their family.

She described decades of violence and s*xual ab*se.

She told him Carlos had knocked out her teeth while she was pregnant with Moisés himself.

Moisés went without eating or sleeping and drove directly to his sister Sara’s home in Montevideo, where he heard the same story.

Sara testified that she had been *ssaulted by her father more than 60 times.

What Moisés also learned was that the Uruguayan justice system already knew.
