A 35-year-old social educator was tragically killed in a violent attack at a youth care home in Badajoz, Spain.
The suspects, three teenagers aged 14 to 15, fled the scene but were later apprehended in Mérida.
The educator, who was alone at the time, was reportedly strangled with a belt after being assaulted.
The incident has sparked outrage among her colleagues, who have long voiced concerns about inadequate security measures in such facilities.
Workers have called for urgent reforms, including the presence of security personnel and better protections for staff.
The tragedy has highlighted the risks faced by educators in judicial youth homes, where tensions and safety issues are reportedly common.
Authorities are continuing their investigation into the case.
