A retired police officer who was an informant for Commissioner Maciel was arrested after Laudelina's statement.
Francisco Méndez, who Loan's aunt implicated in the sequence of her nephew's disappearance. He was arrested by the PFA. She claims that her husband, Bernardino Benítez, took the boy, already badly injured, to the structure where a series of rags were found, the ruined "hut" in this case. From there, he was taken by Carlos Pérez, the only one who had a car. There, in the shack, Méndez was said to have been. Laudelina stated that the policeman was the one who was waiting for “Fierrito” and Benítez at the place, a link with the retired marine Pérez so that he could take the boy away in the Ford Ranger. The aunt, however, clarified that she did not see this sequence, but only believes it to be probable.

According to information detailed by A24, Benítez handed Loan to Méndez, Pérez loaded him into the truck, Maciel provided cover and they took him away.
According to prosecutors, the boy's aunt allegedly intentionally placed Loan's soccer cleat in a specific location so it could be found, as part of a plan to manipulate the scene. In her statement to the federal court, Laudelina said: “Caillava had ordered her not to say anything, threatening to kill her and her family.”

Now Laudelina has completely changed her statement. She said that her nephew was kidnapped by her husband, Antonio Benítez and "Fierrito" Ramírez, and then taken away from the place by the former marine Carlos Pérez and the former official María Victoria Caillava.
This new version says that it was Antonio Benítez, Laudelina's husband and arrested in Loan's disappearance, who kidnapped the boy from the famous orange grove. From there, Daniel Oscar Ramírez quickly took the boy to the "tapera" (this translates to shack) and from there he was handed over to Pérez and Caillava.
This is the new version of Laudelina, although he supposedly doesn't know where they took him.

All adults there that day should have been confined and restricted.Laudelina Peña, who is being held in the Ezeiza prison, requested that she be granted house arrest to be close to her daughters. However, the Federal Court has not yet made a decision on the matter.

So was Loan run over by a car or not? Why was he injured?

Last week, retired police officer Méndez testified as a witness. He had collaborated in the search for Loan since June 14, one day after the disappearance.
“I decided to cross the mountain and I found some mud. And I said, 'Oh, it's scratched, I don't know if you have anything to tell me,' and I found the trail of the creature [Loan]. I followed the footprints until the middle of the mud showed the two legs without shoes (barefoot foot prints makes more sense here). And then I thought, the shoe must have been left in the mud. I didn't have anyone's phone number to call. I had a phone number for the police station guard. I found that phone number because I had saved it. The call was at approximately two in the afternoon. They answered and I said, 'Give me your boss,' and he said, 'I'm the boss, I'm Commissioner Maciel.' He asked me what had happened. I told him I had found something that could be interesting, I told him that I found footprints and I had already preserved the place. I worked for the police for years, I knew what I had to do. He asked me if I was sure and he told me not to call anyone, that he would come. I hung up, and in two minutes, three at most, four women came out of the woods. They were Laudelina, her daughter Macarena, another woman with the last name Duarte and one more woman, but I didn't pay attention. They came out of the woods shouting, and she said to me 'where is Loan's shoe?' She said 'they called me and told me that you found the shoe.' After about 15 minutes, the grandfather, Laudelina's father-in-law, appears from another side, from another wood, they call him Capi Benítez. 'The bare left paw went into the mud, and the right paw with the shoe, well marked. And then the two without shoes. I found the trail, I didn't touch anything, I called the commissioner and he said 'I'm leaving, I'm leaving.' I didn't even know the shoe was there," said Méndez when he testified as a witness. /La Nación.

Run over, Cult, Human trafficking or Lost?
Even if it someone did run him over why such a massive cover up and all these inconsistent stories from various individuals.
If say Laudelina is behind it more than initially thought there could be more to the relationship between her and her brother, Loan's father, that hasn't come out yet.
Like jealousy, resentment, envy or getting him back for something. An act against him and his wife.
It is hard to believe family would do something like that to family though.
Just my thoughts if Laudelina is far more involved than not...

It seems to me that because Laudelina (and her family) are poor, she is motivated by money. I also think she may have known what was going to happen (her husband doesn't tell her?) and participated in the kidnapping, not just covered up for others. If the police are involved, then its most likely they are getting bribed too.

"Fierrito" Ramirez testified on Wednesday before Judge Cristina Pozzer Penzo and defended himself against the accusations. "My wife and I are innocent," he said in the virtual hearing.
The investigation of Antonio Benítez, Laudelina's husband, could be postponed. Benítez could be questioned on Thursday, the same day that María Victoria Caillava and Carlos Pérez have to testify virtually.

Bernardino Benítez, Laudelina's husband, has denied involvement in the boy's disappearance and has not implicated other defendants, while denouncing police harassment. The inquiries of Mónica Caillava and her husband, Carlos Pérez, are expected today.
That day I took my wife to cook the stew. Ramirez arrives with his wife and all the kids. While we were there, Ramirez’s phone rang and he walked away. He must have been talking for about 15 minutes. He hung up and I said, ‘Let’s go.’ We continued walking, we were talking, when we got to about 150, 200 meters. We turned around and he said, ‘My nephew Loan is missing.’ I took out my phone, called my wife and asked her if Loan was there, and she said no,” he said at the beginning of his story.
Benítez went into the fields in the area, asked neighbors, but did not find the boy. Later, night fell, and he looked for a flashlight. He spoke of a well that supposedly interested Commissioner Walter Maciel, who is currently in the same jail as him. At one point in his testimony, Benítez claimed to have been harassed by the police. “Afterwards I was at my mother-in-law’s house, then some police officers took me to school, and then they asked me for my phone, and I told them that the battery was dead… Then they handcuffed me and hit me, they told me that they have a way to make people talk ,” he said.
He claimed not to have previously met Carlos Pérez and María Victoria Caillava, even though one of his daughters and his wife had her saved in their phone as “Aunt Victoria.” “I don’t usually go to their house, my wife is the one who goes,” he said. Regarding the version of the accident that his wife gave, he said that “she found out about it on TV.”

Macarena (Laudelina's daughter) said that she grew up with Loan's brothers and said: "I would never hurt them. At one point I came to live with them, because we lived in the province of Buenos Aires, and since I didn't get along, I ended up at my grandmother's, and since my grandmother and I clashed, I went to live with them. I must have lived with them for about 6 months, so I wouldn't hurt them, because of the gratitude I have for them."
"Do you think Laudelina would hide something?" the journalist asked her. To which the detainee's daughter said: "I don't think so, my mother wouldn't hurt her own nephew. She lied out of fear, because of the threat... that was it, it wasn't that she was hiding information about Loan."
The reporter asked her what her relationship with Antonio Benitez is like and Macarena said: " I don't have a relationship. From the beginning we got along that way, I never saw him as a father." Macarena is not Antonio Benítez's biological daughter, Joaquín and Abigail are. "Did you live with him?" the journalist said. To which the young woman shared: "Yes, for a long time, until I went to live with my boyfriend. It was always a relationship like that, up until then, he was never my dad."
Finally, Paula asked her: "Your mother names Ramírez, Millapi and also Benítez as those who could have taken Loan... Do you think Benítez could be involved?" Without hesitation, Macarena said: " Yes, it could be, why not? He had a criminal record, not of that kind, but for a person who already had dark things, it makes me think."

Antonio Benítez said in his statement that he was tortured at the 9 de Julio police station and that they threatened him to blame Macarena. "The Santa Lucia officer Macarena Delgado told me that the people who hit me were from Corrientes. They also told me to blame Macarena or Monica," Benítez said in his statement. He also revealed what his response was to such a threat: "I told them how could I blame them, if I didn't see them."
"I didn't eat. I was handcuffed in a corner. It wasn't until Sunday afternoon that they put us in the cell on 9 de Julio, at the back of the police station," he said. "On Sunday I had fainted, when I woke up Noguera had given me water, and then they took me to the hospital. On Monday the doctor came, examined me and saw that I was fine. On Tuesday they transferred us to Goya."

In his statement, he also referred to the "false" discovery of Loan on the night of Thursday, June 13. "They were going to take me to the police station, the Noguera police officer took me to the van and received a call for everyone to return to Catalina's house. I asked him what happened and he said that Loan appeared. We returned to my mother-in-law's house and they said it was a false testimony," explained the uncle.
Laudelina 's statement was along the same lines , as she was the first to speak about the false discovery. "At 1.30 the radio rings and they tell her 'boss (Maciel) we found the boy, he was in a shack, he was scared but he's okay. It was all a joy, the commissioner came out and congratulated us, Ramírez and Millapi were there ," she said in her statement. According to the woman, at that moment the commissioner left the place and told them "wait here we're going to look for Loan who appeared." In her statement, the boy's aunt assured that two other police officers who were at the scene dressed in black and who were not from the place left with Ramírez and Millapi.

It's looking like Loan was found at the shack and then disappeared after that. Commissioner Maciel needs to tell us who he talked to that said Loan was at the shack.

The lawyer for the family of Loan Danilo Peña, Fernando Burlando, announced that on Monday 22nd he will present, together with his legal team, the complaint in Comodoro Py against the province of Corrientes for the disappearance of the child on June 13th.
“This is not going to be left like this. On Monday the complaint will be filed in Comodoro Py. This investigation must be carried out by someone with backbone, conviction and energy. In addition, they must not have any commitments to anyone,” he said.
According to the defense attorney's own statement, he will accuse the province of "the crime of aggravated concealment" since he claimed that senators, governors and police officers are involved in the case. The lawyer also argued that "evidence was manipulated " and that many important actors in the case are linked to the provincial government.
