Tomorrow we bring the new patient, who killed his girlfriend. Sometimes I hate my job. I researched the case in the net, but the truth is that there is little information.

Extract from the report regarding the mental state Armend Francisco by Dr. Antonio resille and deposited with Ardesa Manuel, director of the psychiatric center of Our Lady of Mercy on March 29, 2010
[...] thus presenting clear symptoms of acute paranoid schizophrenia. After the simple gesture of taking the umbrella and the keys to his car, the patient suddenly fell into account that "John", an invention of his mind, was but a repressed part of his personality. He came to this terrible conclusion to realize that the "ugly umbrella black and white stripes "was actually his, and that it was impossible that had accompanied his fictional friend home because, as I myself would check later, his vehicle was tandem. The shock of this sudden revelation could well explain the violent episode of anger which resulted in the death of his partner. [...] Even under hypnosis, the patient's memory about the death of Pilar Revilla is tightly locked, and probably applies to the traumatic death of their parents in their early teens. [...]

found dead in his cell the infamous "umbrella murderer." According to official sources, the killer committed suicide Tuesday April 3, being the cause of death asphyxiation. However, certain anonymous workers of the center to be closeted, ensuring that the patient was monitored in a high security cell, which are perfectly equipped to prevent such incidents, not explaining the psychopath and could end his life.

Manuel, the center's director insists that rest for a while. Believes the "suicide" by Francisco Armend has affected me more than necessary. The truth is that I still pursue the gruesome image of the young aerial installers dead in his cell, his swollen tongue hanging out of his mouth, his livid face transformed into a horrible grimace of terror. It is impossible to kill himself, it is impossible to be killed. I myself have seen the security tapes, I've been left to die, as if somehow have been able to voluntarily stop breathing. But that is not possible. No one can overcome the survival instinct. Someone had to kill Francis. Otherwise, the only explanation I can find is that the young man found a suicide so that we do not understand.

Just sleep. Yesterday Teresa left my side. He says he will not return while I go to work. And how could I? How could return to that terrible place, the scene of the death of Francisco Armend? I never put my foot in that place, not again.
May 18, 2010
Last night I dreamed again with the death of Pilar. In the skin of Francis, lived that damn night again, and I still feel in my heart the terror and despair that will surely invaded to discover the truth, to find that person, that friend of youth was but an invention of his mind.
May 21, 2010
often in my imagination I see the haggard face of John, who seeks me and I pursued. Other times, however, appears in my dreams, laughing and trying to have fun. Always carry your umbrella.
May 25, 2010
Manuel Ardesa phoned today. Has finally agreed to say goodbye. It was quite brief, but I found some sense of pity in his voice.

write this in hopes that someone will find this diary. My time is running out. Look for Juan. Look for Juan de Guzman!

found dead around the Jiloca Antonio resille Loma, doctor of psychiatry and former employee of the center of Our Lady of Mercy. All indications are that the illustrious doctor may have fallen from the cliff beneath which was found accidentally tumbling, with multiple bruises on the death. This place, "the ravine of you", has claimed the lives of two locals so far this century. The former, Juan Guzman, drowned after being caught by a landslide caused by the storm in the summer of two thousand six. [...] Those who found the doctor, being the day he disappeared one day clear and sunny, not yet explain the curious fact that the body was found along an old umbrella with black and white stripes.
