Marilyn Cote, the woman accused of impersonating a psychiatrist, will continue to be held in Ciudad Serdán prison after a judge denied her request for conditional suspension of the legal process. This decision came during a hearing on Monday, June 8, 2026, at the Casa de Justicia in San Andrés Cholula, where her defense sought to change her precautionary measures.

Her lawyers argued that the victims did not suffer moral damage warranting compensation, even offering 10,000 pesos as indemnification. However, the court rejected this proposal, confirming that Cote must remain in preventive detention due to the serious nature of her alleged crimes: professional impersonation and threats.

Although Marilyn Cote was not physically present at the hearing, she participated remotely via videoconference, where she was informed of the judge’s decision to keep her in custody. The court recognized that the victims endured moral, physical, and psychological harm, which moves the case forward to an oral trial.

This ruling highlights the ongoing demand for justice from those affected by Cote’s actions. It also underscores the importance of protecting public trust in professional services and ensuring accountability for those who exploit vulnerable individuals.

For communities navigating complex social and legal systems, this case serves as a reminder of the critical role that judicial processes play in safeguarding rights and delivering justice.
