The suspect, who is serving a life sentence in a Florida prison for other crimes, confessed to being the author of the murders for which Pablo Ibar was sentenced.
A judge in Florida, U.S., ordered a re-examination of the fingerprints of a prisoner suspected of being the author of the murders for which Pablo Ibar was sentenced nine years ago. Those samples will then be compared with ones that were found at the crime scene.
The new suspect is a Puerto Rican named Willie Ortiz, who is serving a life sentence in a Florida prison for other serious crimes.
Ortiz became a suspect after a witness informed authorities that the Puerto Rican had confessed to being the author of the triple murder that put Ibar on death row in 2000.
Ibar's attorney, Benjamin Waxman, is undergoing a process to have the trial which condemned the Cuban American of Basque origin to death declared null and void.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Cooperation of Spain financially supports Spanish people who are on death row to help them to pay their legal fees.
