I don't know if a court does take the children of a convicted felon into consideration when sentencing (we're getting far ahead of ourselves here, I'm speaking hypothetically ). There are many, many children out there whose only parent goes to jail for some crime or another, I'm sorry to say. What happens to them? A relative? Foster care?
I have no doubt that the SRF, while they cannot interfere with the proceedings (let's hope), probably is in the privileged position of knowing what the evidence against Cristina and Inaki is, and probably have a fairly good idea of how this will go. I'm guessing JC and Felipe have made a few phone calls to assess the situation. Plans are in place as necessary for the children. I have no doubt these four will have as soft a landing as possible under the circumstances. I say "soft landing" in relative terms, surely one's childhood ends when both parents face conviction and possible jail, no matter how much privilege they were born into.
