A long time Inter Miami reporter:

Before, I didn’t have much competition on this beat. Now, all of a sudden, I’m competing with the entire Argentine media scrum and they’re plugged in with Messi and his inner circle.

Makes perfect sense to me that argentine reporters have the inside story on Messi. Don’t know what he expected tbh. To many, he’s the goat after all.

I’m with you tbh. For context: Here in Germany this is the reason that offenders have a right to privacy, so their faces and their full names aren’t allowed to be shown / named (in german media).

This regulation has its own issues imo, but makes sense in this case: The offender gets punished, but they don’t have to suffer their whole life for it.

And the job after that, was thrown out of his parents’ home and had problems with his partner. According to this article, he seemed remorseful during the court proceedings and afterwards, so hopefully he learned a lesson, and many other onlookers.
