Two stories, two broken lives. A place: prison. Analogies, arrest for substance detenzioe drugs and death shortly after his arrest for reasons yet to be ascertained. These are the elements that unite the stories of Stephen and Aldo Bianzino Cucchi, who died mysteriously, the first in the prison huts Perugia October 14, 2007, the second in Regina Coeli, Rome in the night between 22 and 23 October. Abnormalities in both cases: the various signs of swelling on the face of Stephen, as stated by the parents, an autopsy on that of Aldo, which leads to detect the pulping of liver and spleen and brain injuries that would have caused death. This morning before a court in Perugia was held the preliminary hearing for the prosecution against an officer of the prison probation officer section 2 ° B, where Aldo was. "The agent is charged with failing to inform the health guard Aldo required help, have not provided relief and trying to hide what really happened that night access to falsifying the log section of the prison. Unfortunately, this judicial process seeks to highlight some aspects of what probably happened, assuming the accidental illness Aldo. Nothing is given us to know why a person has entered prison in health and left it dead. "This is what we read on the website dedicated to the same and edited by Aldo Aldo Committee for Truth, which also includes the family.
The same committee this morning held a sit-in before the tribunal so that the affair will also be archived from the collective memory, instead of being strong, the risk of legal archiving. For Joseph Petrazzini
pm (the same who had ordered the arrest of Bianzno and partner) who is leading the investigation, the hypothesis of murder are inadequate, hence the request to dismiss the file opened against persons unknown at request where the family has no intention to be bound by opposing a series elements.
First there is the part of forensic examination carried out by Giuseppe Fortuni and contrary to the official report aims to show the causal link between the injury to the liver and the subsequent death: "Violent crushing abdominal trauma resulting in laceration of the liver, arterial hypertensive crisis related to pain and fear resulting adrenergic reaction and subsequent rupture of an aneurysm sac of a cerebral artery. The official report's intention is that death is replaced following a brain aneurysm and then to natural causes, while the crushing of the liver was caused by a post-mortem cardiac massage too vigorously, the case that according to the medical literature is not particularly common but it can happen.
Fortunately, however, the injury to the liver would occur while Aldo was still alive. Also
sussitono other rather strange in the whole each other: the nakedness of the body (he was only wearing a T-shirt), the anomalous position on the cot, the cell door open (as is clear from the CCTV cameras), the body left on the ground in front of the infirmary is closed, the Late assistance despite requests for help (according to eyewitnesses), swollen ear. All the elements that immediately alert the family members and friends of Aldo, first of all his partner, Robert Root, who died recently, and that immediately after the incident he wrote in a letter made public: "The coroner, who called me, to my presence, the former wife of Aldo, his lawyers and the Advocate office, and before in five people asked me, in my view, what might be the reason why Aldo had been killed. I replied that I did not believe there were reasons ... I thought of a beating went beyond what was intended. This gentleman, the coroner and it is not my friend or a passerby, and then has all the elements in order to make the statements not random, said: "No, ma'am. These are blows given with the intent to kill. Colpi data knowingly, with a scientific technique also used in some military corporations, which seek to destroy the vital organs without leaving any trace. Why do not you understand why a Christian - this is what - the liver has detached and crushed from the outside and there is not even a sign, not even on his knees to demonstrate that it did not fall. In addition it has four cerebral hemorrhages.
anomalies also nell'istruttoria, defined as "incomplete" from the legal part: "In fact - he wrote in the application of the Advocate Zaganelli opposition - despite a case of murder, the incomprehensibly cell and articles contained therein were not subject to seizure or technical scientific investigations arranged ... well as the nakedness of the body - he said - might suggest the possibility of a physical or moral outrage before death was presumed to be brought to immediate notice of the director, and chief inspector of prison doctors.
