Noelia Castillo Ramos, a 25-year-old woman from Barcelona, died by euthanasia on March 26, 2026, following a prolonged legal battle with her parents. Ramos had been paralyzed from the waist down since a 2022 suicide attempt in which she jumped from a fifth-floor window after suffering multiple sexual assaults, including what some reports described as a gang rape while under state care. Medical reports cited chronic pain and a serious disabling condition as the basis for approval under Spain's euthanasia law. Coverage of the case has shown notable differences in framing. Some outlets emphasize her history of assaults in state facilities and criticize the lack of justice for the perpetrators, while others report her final interview clarifying details of three separate sexual assaults over the years, including by an ex-boyfriend and three boys in 2022, and explicitly dispelling viral claims that she was gang-raped by migrants at a shelter. The New York Post reported that Ramos set the record straight in her last interview the day before her death, confirming the euthanasia was granted due to her paraplegia rather than solely depression. Other reports from Sky News and Crux detail the failed legal challenges by her father and the European Court of Human Rights' decision not to intervene. The case has ignited debates over Spain's euthanasia practices, treatment of vulnerable individuals in public care, and the accuracy of public narratives around the events leading to her paralysis.
