The Fortune Sánchez's Brother Has Earned While Still Getting Paid by Legislature

Despite having resigned, David Sánchez continues to receive his salary as an employee of the institution

David Sánchez, brother of Pedro Sánchez, despite not attending his position, continues to receive his salary as an employee of the institution.

This fact has caused controversy, as he is under judicial investigation for alleged irregularities in his hiring. Judge Beatriz Biedma, from the Investigative Court number 3 of Badajoz, continues to investigate how the position he occupies was created.

David Sánchez requested leave shortly after appearing before the judge, citing health problems. However, his absence has reinforced suspicions about his employment relationship with the Legislature de Badajoz and the usefulness of the position he held.

The truth is that David Sánchez, even after having unilaterally resigned from his position at the Legislature de Badajoz, continues to be talked about. It has become known that the Legislature of Badajoz decided to expand the Opera project of Sánchez's brother.

An expansion that coincides precisely with the ongoing investigation and in the midst of a UCO search. Specifically, the project expansion was signed on July 18 of last year by José María S. S., from the central services of Culture, Sports, and Youth.

That same day, the investigating judge sent UCO agents from the Armed Institute for the second time to search the offices of the Legislature de Badajoz.

However, EDATV has investigated how much Sánchez's brother has earned with that position, which, according to him, he accessed thanks to Google. The sum of money amounts to 273,074.33 euros gross from July 2017 to March 2024. They are distributed over eight fiscal years that do not add up to eight full years.

The breakdown of the amount even shows the change in nomenclature in Sánchez's brother's position. In 2017, as a coordinator of activities in conservatories, he pocketed 22,603.82 euros, which makes 3,942.53 euros gross per month.

In 2018, there is an increase of 0.25% from July to December. This translated into 48,044.24 euros gross per year, reaching the figure of 4,020.13 euros gross per month.

The barrier of 4,000 euros gross per month would not drop in the following years; on the contrary, that figure has increased. In 2019 and 2020, they were the last years as a coordinator of activities in conservatories. This meant he earned 4,111.85 euros gross per month the first year, and in 2020 it was 4,194.12.

From this date, the change in nomenclature appears, and he becomes the head of the Performing Arts Office. From 2021 to March 2024, he achieves an annual gross of 36,645.65 euros, 54,136.32, and 11,919.73 euros, respectively.

All this adds up to 273,074.33 euros. In the document where these data are revealed, the leaves of absence from October 1, 2020, to September 30, 2021, are also noted, as well as the 16-week paternity leave that is also reflected.
