Netflix released a new documentary series about an unsolved murder case that shocked Argentina. The three-part show examines the 2006 death of Nora Dalmasso and how it became a media circus. Director Jamie Crawford worked with Pulse Films to create the series using never-before-seen footage and exclusive interviews.
Nora Dalmasso was found strangled in her daughter's bedroom at age 51. Police discovered she died from manual strangulation using a bathrobe cord. The crime scene lacked fingerprints because someone wiped them away with a towel. Investigators also found strange evidence that complicated the case from the start.
The documentary features interviews with family members and key people connected to the investigation. Her children Facundo and Valentina speak about their mother's death. Her husband Marcelo Macarrón also appears in the series despite being a former suspect. Police experts and journalists who covered the story share their experiences.
The case revealed a web of affairs that made the investigation more complex. Accountant Guillermo Albarracín admitted having a relationship with Nora after police found messages on her phone. Former official Rafael Magnasco was also named as a suspect but denied romantic ties. Both men moved within the family's social circle.
Police made serious mistakes during their investigation of the crime. They pressured a mentally ill young man to falsely accuse a construction worker named Gastón Zárate. Local residents protested and demanded Zárate's release because they believed he was innocent. The case remains unsolved after almost twenty years.
