Trigger Happy - The Story of Darían Barzabal

Darían Barzabal was 17 years old when he was executed by a police officer from the province of Buenos Aires. He was found beaten, handcuffed and defenceless in a police car. The police tried to justify his death by falsfying testimonies and assembling a criminal scene by planting an arm at his feet.
