Editorial: El País

• The Minors' Prosecutor's Office in Barcelona is appealing for the suspension of a publication of a book about a sensitive murder case.
• The book seeks to understand the mindset of a murderer, but excluded the testimony of the victims' mother.
• There is public outrage for giving voice only to the murderer, exacerbating the mother's anguish.
• There is a conflict between the right to honor and privacy and freedom of expression.
• The author's and publisher's mistake was not informing the mother about the project and not having enough insight about the case reconstruction.

Conclusion: Justice will determine if the book infringes the law, but the approach taken by the author and the publisher has generated considerable anguish and controversy.
