14-Year-Old Girl Passes Away After
Tragedy in Durango: The Death of 14-Year-Old Paloma Nicole
The death of 14-year-old Paloma Nicole in Durango has sparked outrage,
raising questions about medical ethics, parental consent, and justice.
What began as a supposed trip to the mountains turned into a devastating tragedy that continues to unfold in court.
Hospitalization and Decline
On September 15, Paloma was admitted to Clínica Santa María after a cardiorespiratory arrest left her in a coma.
Doctors initially reported slight improvement, but her condition worsened,
and she was declared brain dead on September 20.
Father’s Allegations
Her father, Carlos Arellano, later revealed that Paloma had undergone cosmetic surgery “without my consent,”
allegedly performed by her stepfather, Dr. V. M. M. R. G.
He accused the clinic of “criminal negligence” and claimed the death certificate falsely cited illness.
Investigation and Public Reaction
Authorities have opened a judicial investigation and ordered a necropsy.
Paloma’s funeral drew hundreds demanding justice.
The case has reignited debate on cosmetic surgery for minors and
the urgent need for stricter consent and medical oversight.
