María del Carmen Brotons Buil, more commonly known as Carmen Broto (9 April 1922 – 11 January 1949), was a Spanish prostitute whose murder shocked Spanish society in the late 1940s. At the time of her death members of the establishment were implicated in her murder. Some sources indicate that the speculation that powerful people were involved in her death resulted in an abbreviated inquiry to her murder. Carmen Broto was nicknamed Cascabeles.
