Autopsies revealed the existence of seven hairs with seven distinct DNA profiles, none of them belonging to any of the girls or either of their alleged murderers, Antonio Anglés and Miguel Ricart.
On 13 November 1992,[1] Miriam García, Antonia 'Toñi' Gómez, and Desirée Hernández, all from the municipality of Alcàsser, sought to attend a secondary school party that was going to be held at Coolor, a popular discothèque located on the outskirts of Picassent, four kilometres away.
[2] A young couple from Alcàsser took the three girls to a petrol station near Picassent, where a resident witnessed them climb into a sedan – thought to be a white Opel Corsa – carrying a group of men.
When the men continued driving past the nightclub the girls had requested to go to, they began to scream, resulting in Anglés pistol-whipping them with the handle of a Star Model BM handgun.
They then headed to a derelict, abandoned house near a place known as Barranco de La Romana, in a very isolated and mountainous area, close to the Tous dam.
García's corpse showed evidence of vaginal wounds caused by a sharp-edged object, possibly from sticks or wood, and potentially inflicted postmortem.
At the scene, the Spanish Civil Guard found one of Ricart's gloves, a Social Security referral note on behalf of Anglés' brother Enrique, and a shell casing.
Many felt that publicising the graphic crime scene photos was unethical due to the girls' young ages, and that it violated not only their privacy (and that of their families), but indeed compromised the integrity of the entire case—a case which thus may never be solved.
