Here are the translations of each tweet from top to bottom.
“How outrageous to know that a life like Yordano’s could have been saved had it not been that they looted him the way he was looted.”
“Now it is more painful to know that Yordano remained alive after the accident and instead of someone to help him, they robbed him and let him die.”
“I hope an investigation will be carried out, because if there is any specific evidence of this, I would feel a great deal of shame for my country.”
In essence Martinez revealed that some unknown people found Ventura in his jeep after the crash. He was still alive at the time. Rather than call for help though they instead ransacked his body and stole his World Series championship ring. Then fled the scene. An unfortunate reality of just how destitute and sad a situation the people down there live in. Thus far the reports haven’t been confirmed by law enforcement.
All that is known at this point is Ventura was driving through a mountainous area in the town of Juan Adrian. Conditions were reportedly foggy that night, which likely contributed to why he lost control in the first place. A bleak series of disastrous circumstances that led to yet another sad reminder of how cruel the world can be sometimes.
