New referral to the Court of Pescara for the trial of the tragedy of the Hotel Rigopiano in Farindola. All three hearings were scheduled for today (October 26, 2022), tomorrow and the day after, and have been rescheduled for November 9-11.
This time the reason for the postponement is the strike of the lawyers of the court of Havezzano, who are protesting against the lack of staff in the court. Two lawyers involved in the trial of the hotel disaster – destroyed by an avalanche in 2017, killing 29 people – are part of this forum.
Rigopiano: classroom expertise
On these days we will return to class to discuss the super-evaluation carried out by the Politecnico di Milano expert group.
Rigopiano’s victims’ committee says it is disappointed with the justice system. In a note revived by Ansa: “After 15 adjournments and almost six years after the massacre, we feel embittered, angry and deeply disappointed by a justice system that allows all this. We waited six long months, counting the days and hours to get to the scheduled hearings, and then the world fell on us.
Relatives of the victims: “The angels of Rigopiano deserve justice”
“If it is true and fair that they are all innocent until proven guilty, we do not understand why the same legal defenders do not try to avoid these extensions and do not have an urgent need to prove the possible innocence of their clients. The “angels of Rigopiano” deserve justice and to obtain it we have entrusted ourselves to those who administer it on behalf of the Italian people, hoping that there will be the strength and the will to start this process as soon as possible possible “.
