Chilean President Piñera promulgated a new law that redefines femicide. Ley Gabriela (“Gabriela’s Law”) comes as a result of continued petitioning by the family of Gabriela Alcaíno, who was raped and murdered by her ex-boyfriend. Significantly, the law extends the crime of femicide to any homicide with “gender motives,” and thus applies to any type of relationship that a woman has with her aggressor, even those with no prior connection.
