  Noelia Castillo, 25, received life-ending medication that put an end to the chronic pain she suffered following a suicide attempt that left her paralyzed from the waist down.

  Gets gang raped, and PTSD from the event.
  Tries to kill herself, but instead paraplegia.
  Tries getting the suicide pill, hyper religious father blocks it.
  Finally gets approval.

  I hope she’s at rest now.

    I do not really enjoy this characterization of the father - you are describing him as trying to prevent her death due to his hyper religiosity. Rather, most normal people, even without religion, would try to do this, and the religious values in Christianity are reflective of the parental love for their children, IMO.

    Nonetheless, I do appreciate your commentary under the article.

  So sad. They never convicted the men who raped her either, right?

    That is what I heard but I believe it is the case that since juveniles were involved (and migrants) that the SPanish government just is not offering up much information.
