Ángel Díaz Balbín

Incarceration, release, and alleged serial murders Díaz Balbín was charged with the killings of his aunt Genoveva Díaz and her two children. Psychiatrists who evaluated him in 1976 found him to be perverse and psychopathic, with strong traits of emotional flatness and lack of empathy.

Death After Díaz Balbín was arrested in February 1986, the INPE hired psychologist Mario Poggi to work on a profile of Díaz Balbín for purposes related to court proceedings and attempt to extract a confession from him. Beginning on the same day of his arrest, Díaz Balbín showed no cooperation with Poggi during the interviews they had at a Lima police station, remaining silent when confronted by Poggi.
