As the days have passed, the PP's discourse has become increasingly... <em>in crescendo </em>When it comes to demanding accountability for the accidents, which have been compounded by the railway chaos in Catalonia and the AVE high-speed train speed restrictions, the PP's leader, Alberto Núñez Feijóo, directly blamed Spanish President Pedro Sánchez for the accidents on Wednesday and predicted that his government "will be in the dock" for the train tragedy. "They played Russian roulette with our safety; this was an avoidable accident, not an unforeseeable catastrophe," the PP leader declared. He said this after Sánchez appeared before Congress to explain his government's handling of the accidents, in which he defended the Andalusian case, stating that all maintenance controls were "scrupulously" followed, although he acknowledged that protocols "are not infallible" and that quality standards are not always met.</p>]]></description>

The media of the time gave extensive coverage to the phenomenon, which even made the front pages of sensationalist newspapers such as <em>The Case</em>María Mesa, a woman of Andalusian origin with eight children, claimed to have a direct connection with divinity and would enter a kind of mystical ecstasy in which she supposedly received messages from beyond the grave. She quickly gathered followers, curious onlookers, and a few opportunists around her, many of whom nourished a Via Crucis that, on the 4th of each month, began to follow the so-called Way of the Crosses, made up of fourteen small chapels where the stations of the Via Crucis are represented. At the site of the apparitions, a chapel was eventually built, embedded in the rock, which has remained to this day. Even last Friday, April 4th, a dozen faithful made the Via Crucis accompanied by one of Mesa's daughters.</p>]]></description>
