Everything they’re saying against him is a lie,” she insisted to Fuentes, who confessed during police interviews to raping the young man at least twice, according to court records and officials. The defensive mom, who hid her face when speaking to Telemundo in Spanish, insisted she wasn’t the one to press charges against her young daughter’s abuser.
