Corrections — Ernesto Ruffo Appel

Public correction log for the Ernesto Ruffo Appel archive.

October 10, 2026: Updated “Support, now” with the October 3 Ensenada visit (El Universal and Infobae), the September 28 community welcome (La Jornada), Acosta Naranjo’s September 27 solidarity statement (ZETA), and the August 25 plural press conference (Proceso). Added a near-top summary with sources and record links. These are attributed expressions, with no inferred attendance figures or assumed institutional or electoral endorsements. Legal-status verification remains dated October 3.
October 3, 2026: Updated the lead status to reflect Ernesto Ruffo's September 28 arrival home in Ensenada, documented by La Jornada and ZETA, and his September 26 departure from Altiplano. Preserved the September 25 authorization as history. Added ZETA's September 30 report on the closure of amparo 889/2026 and October 2 coverage of the FGR's position, without confusing that amparo with the criminal case or presenting allegations as proven facts. October 3 is the review date, not the arrival date.
September 25, 2026: Updated procedural status with El Economista and Latinus reports of home detention granted on September 25. Transfer is still described as pending arrangements, not a confirmed arrival. Added Verónica's message as quoted by El Mexicano and retained the September 22 developments as superseded history. Criminal proceedings continue.
September 23, 2026: Added September 22 reports by Uno TV and Quadratín on the definitive suspension in the amparo challenging the denial of house arrest, plus the family's attributed account of a hearing request reported by Comunicadores. The consulted sources do not confirm departure from Altiplano or a transfer home; the order and formal notification were not independently inspected. Distinguished this amparo from the oral-trial stay reported on September 2 and refreshed the shared procedural-status summary. September 23 is the editorial review date, not a new ruling. Also added a near-top summary of Verónica's invitation to Foro América Libre, separate from court developments. Historical event, video, and letter dates remain unchanged.
September 18, 2026: Reviewed the consulted public sources through September 18 without verifying a procedural resolution after the September 2 report. Corrected the previously overbroad description of the stay's scope: the investigation and proceedings may continue through completion of the intermediate stage; only the opening of oral trial is blocked while the amparo is resolved. Also added the previously missing August 26 historical report on two detention-conditions applications treated as not filed for a procedural reason, without a merits ruling on the allegations. Only the August 25 and September 2 La Jornada articles were reaccessed; verification dates for unrelated materials remain unchanged.
September 6, 2026: Expanded the “Events” record to six activities in reverse chronological order: added the Morelos and Yucatán committee presentations and the August 25 gathering outside the FGR, together with 23 photographs provided by the committee and family. Added press sources, bilingual captions, and event-specific credits without changing the procedural status or its verification date.
September 4, 2026: Added three August 31 reports on the presentation of the Morelos plural committee and La Jornada's September 2 report on the definitive suspension upheld by a collegiate court. The current status clarifies that Ruffo remains in pretrial detention at Altiplano and that the suspension pauses advancement toward oral trial while the amparo is resolved, without ordering release or determining guilt. The research cutoff is updated to September 4, 2026.
September 1, 2026: Updated the procedural status with August 25–27 coverage: La Jornada reported that a judge denied house arrest and the defense filed a fourth amparo; Zeta documented the FGR's announcement of additional indications and the defense's attributed response. The conflicting accounts remain expressly attributed, and the research cutoff is updated to September 1, 2026.
August 21, 2026: Added Milenio and EL PAÍS coverage of Verónica Ruffo's attributed account concerning her father's medical care and detention conditions. August 21 coverage reported that the house-arrest request remained pending; the research cutoff is updated to August 21, 2026.
August 16, 2026: Added the support letters from the Consejo Coordinador Empresarial de Baja California and Mujeres Libres en Favor de la Democracia, A.C. (family-provided documents), updated the procedural status through August 14, and catalogued press coverage verified through August 16, 2026.
August 16, 2026: Published the “Events” page with the results of the committee's presentation tour across Tijuana, Ensenada, and Mexicali, committee-provided photographs, and the corresponding press coverage; the home events section now links to that page.
August 10, 2026: Initial site publication. Research cutoff is August 9, 2026.
