According
to Desiree Lowry, the national director of Miss Universe Puerto Rico,
Caride got pregnant during her reign, was non-cooperative with reporters
and did not use the salon that they provided instead preferring to use
her own stylists which led the organizers to dethrone her and
crown Brenda Jimenez, the pageant's first runner-up as Miss Universe
Puerto Rico 2016.
Judge Eduardo Rebollo stated
in his ruling that Caride's behavior violated the terms of her contract
with PR Crown Entertainment. "Her dismissal was justified and does not
merit the restitution of her title as Miss Puerto Rico in the
international beauty pageant of Miss Universe," Rebollo said, according
to Telemundo.
Caride's lawyer said, "This
wasn't a surprise for me, rights and justice don't always prevail in a
trial. From my point of view, I am not surprised by Rebollo's decision.
It is an erroneous, wrong decision."
