Hector “Caverna” Godoy
On November 23, 2018, one day before the final frustrated definition for the Copa Libertadores between River and Boca at the Monumental stadium, Justice raided the house of Héctor Guillermo Godoy, alias Caverna, the leader of Los Borrachos del Tablón. In addition to taking almost 300 bar member cards and other supplies, they took pesos, dollars, Danish crowns, reales, Mexican pesos and guaraníes, a figure that, measured in US bills, at that time was $270,000 taking into account the blue change of That moment. That sum, converting it to current money, is more than 90 million pesos. At that time, two legal cases were opened against Caverna Godoy, one for money laundering that he continues to process in the National Justice and another for resale of tickets in the Buenos Aires Justice. In both, without pretrial detention. But in April of last year another process was opened that did leave him arrested when he led a caravan of 254 bars trying to enter the Monumental for a match against Argentinos Juniors.

That day they accused him of being the head of an illegal association plus the crime of disobedience for violating the judicial prohibition of attendance at the stadiums. Well, that case has just been closed and leaves no record: Caverna arranged with the Justice on December 30, 2022 a payment of 50,000 pesos to the Garraham Hospital as comprehensive reparation for the damage and was released (since 4/22 /22 was serving house arrest). For the amount seized from his home, it seems a derisory figure, especially if one takes into account that in the money laundering case he was awarded two cars, a house and 13 trips abroad in less than five years, since he has no registered job. since 2011 and that in his investigation he gave as a livelihood being a changarín. A very well paid changarín. And, as if that were not enough, he has already begun to move to put his group together again and try to win the River rostrum, which in the Monumental is free of bar power, but in the Copa Argentina and Libertadores the presence of Borracha is seen with his rivals internal ones that refer to Pato Ariel in the stands.
The closing of the Caverna case for that meager amount drew powerful attention, but in the Buenos Aires Justice they give their explanation. According to sources from the prosecutor’s office specializing in Massive Events, the investigation failed to obtain concrete evidence to accuse him of being the head of an illegal association, for which reason only disobedience remained standing and they understood that the nine months that Godoy had been imprisoned were punishment rather than punishment. enough for a crime whose maximum sentence is one year and which is usually not punishable by imprisonment. Therefore, they accepted the proposal of the historical lawyer of that sector of the bar, Diego Valente, and the case was closed. With an advantage for Godoy: the figure used that is contemplated in article 59 of the Penal Code establishes that the action is extinguished, for which reason it has no precedents. And this is not a minor issue for Caverna, which still has three cases pending.

In fact, the most common figure to close cases is probation, but the former head of the River bar could not access it because he has already been granted a measure of this type in the Buenos Aires Justice in the first instance. The probation was agreed with the prosecutor Norberto Brotto in the 2018 ticket resale case, but it has not yet become effective because Caverna wants the money back and Brotto refused and now the claim is being analyzed in the Chamber. On what basis do you ask for your money back? In that all the dollars found in his home were from another bar, Gustavo el Tachero Luzzi, who would have obtained them from the sale of a property and had given them to him to take care of them. The prosecutor looked at him as Messi looked at the Dutch player Weghorst when he told him the famous phrase “go there” and now he must solve the superior. Of course, when the Chamber rules and complies with it, it will not have a criminal record either.

Good lawyer or good luck, the truth is that Caverna Godoy now only has two open cases. One as a participant in fraudulent administration under the management of Daniel Alberto Passarella at the club, where he is accused of managing the resale of 1,500 tickets per game, a case that began in 2012 and that more than ten years later has no trial date and the case for money laundering for what was found in his house in the raid prior to the final of the Libertadores. But they don’t seem to worry him because he wants to come back. Perhaps he is relying on his supposed lucky star.

Caverna entered the rostrum at the end of the 90s, when the well-known group “Los Yogures” was beginning to be assembled, as they contemptuously called the bars with the physique of patovicas who trained in the club’s gym and were led by Adrián Rousseau and Alan Schlenker, a faction that took control of the Monumental in 2002, and Godoy was one of the seven Drunkens chosen by the Board of Directors to make them permanent employees of the institution with sky-high salaries, which would have been the way to launder the income they obtained from the business of the field.
But in 2007 the internship between Rousseau and Schlenker broke out in the famous battle of the quinchos and Godoy was on the side of the former, for which he was thinned out of the rostrum won by the Palermo band. But after the crime of Gonzalo Acro that same year, that faction ended up behind bars and Godoy returned as leader of Los Borrachos together with Martín Araujo, a position that lasted until November 2018 and that he later tried to maintain with ups and downs until April 2018. 2022, when he was imprisoned. He is now free. And he assures his intimates that he is going for everything again. We’ll see if he succeeds, this bar that jumped from a changarín to a millionaire and closed a case paying just 50,000 pesos.
