Barella is the principal suspect in the murder of Lyhanna and had nine active judicial procedures against him prior to the crime, yet remained free, while his brother has now also been placed in custody for suspected rape.
For RN, Barella is the definitive symbol of a revolving-door justice system that repeatedly failed to protect a child from a known, multi-file offender.

The main suspect in the disappearance of Lyhanna is being questioned again after a body matching her description was found at a farm where he previously worked in the Gers.
RN supporters see Barella's case as proof that prior rape complaints were ignored by institutions, a recurring failure that costs innocent lives and that RN has long warned about.
