After the video was released, an inquiry had been set up against the judge while the relationship between the judge and the convict is being scrutinized.

The Superior Court of Justice in Chubut province said it has opened an investigation into Comodoro Rivadavia Judge Mariel Suárez after the intimate CCTV video was posted online with her and inmate Cristian ‘Mai’ Bustos spending time together at the Penitentiary Institute (IPP) in Trelew.

Bustos was jailed over the killing of police officer in 2009.
