Cucchi: judges, the state cannot ignore a prisoner

(ANSA) - ROME, 02 FEB - "The State certainly has the right to make a prisoner, but not to ignore it. This is the completely neglected land, in which a story, from a banal judicial point of view (an arrest on the subject of drugs) , turns into tragedy in a few days ". This is what the judges of the Court of Appeal of Rome write in the grounds of the sentence with which on November 14, 2019 they ordered an acquittal and recognized four prescriptions for five doctors of the Sandro Pertini hospital involved in the StefanoCucchi affair. They were all accused of manslaughter. "A sentence now substantially plethoric with respect to the case, the terms of which drafting the motivations have also fallen into the dramatic period of the Covid affair; a failure of justice, as always happens when the cleaver of the prescription falls but also a severe warning and an opportunity for reflection for anyone working in contact with the detainees ", the judges among other things write. Inmates who, according to the judges, should not be "considered a number, but human beings". (HANDLE).
