The pedestrian traffic light, the scene of the accident that caused Gaia and Camilla's death, does not foresee yellow for those who cross and the girls would have started crossing with green for pedestrians. This is what the lawyer Cesere Piraino, lawyer of the parents of Camilla Romagnoli, affirms the 16 year old invested and killed ten days ago in Rome with her friend Gaia, in an act filed today in the Prosecutor's office with which she asks the prosecutors to investigate this aspect. A circumstance defined as "decisive on the evidentiary profile" by the lawyer.

"The traffic light for pedestrian crossing - writes the lawyer - has an objective peculiarity: it does not provide, to warn pedestrians of the imminent arrival" of green for "cars, the characteristic 'yellow for pedestrians' but provides that at' green for pedestrians', which lasts about 26 and a half seconds, only a 'flashing green' that lasts just three and 40 seconds follows, followed immediately and immediately by 'red', always for pedestrians and contextually after about one second , the green arrives, that is the green light, for the cars of the roadway ". For the lawyer "the circumstance appears to be decisive on the evidentiary profile since if it is true that the young Pietro Genovese has arrived on those pedestrian crossings with green and the car alongside, in the meantime, has stopped to let the girls pass, it is certain that the they themselves started the pedestrian crossing with the green and that they came across, immediately after, in the "flashing green" and then, after just three and a half seconds, in the "red" without being able to do, they yes, on the other than to suffer the death".
