The response after weeks of accusations
Maribel Guardia finally spoke out. She did it on Instagram, responding to the harsh accusations of her ex-daughter-in-law, Imelda Garza Tuñón, who accused her of being responsible for the death of Julián Chacón for promoting an implant with naltrexone.
The actress confirmed the key fact: her son did receive that treatment. But he flatly denied the theory that links him to his death.
“No, that is a total lie, Maribel. Many have come to the clinic with that chip, already drugged, do you understand me? and, thank God, nothing has happened to them.”
To give more weight to her statement, she was not alone. He appeared alongside Julio César Chávez, who joined the video to share his own family experience with the same substance.
An unexpected support from the ring
The former boxer revealed that his son, Julio César Jr., also used a naltrexone patch. He said that, despite the implant, his son continued using and did not suffer any damage to his health from the substance.
The conversation took a more personal turn when the ‘Caesar of Boxing’ himself confessed to having tried the treatment.
“They also gave it to me… the first few days I tried a beer or cocaine, and it caused me a little bit of (denial), but… I continued using and that chip ruined me.”
Both figures agreed that the implant remains in the body for about three months. And they closed with a joint message addressed to families: vigilance is key before any initial consumption, because one habit can lead to another.
The video seeks to close a painful controversy. But above all, it brings to the table an uncomfortable and necessary conversation about how addictions are faced.
