He didn't accidentally fall down a slide at a playground, but was thrown out the window by his mother.
Sensational breakthrough in the investigation into the death of little Marcus, a two-and-a-half-year-old boy who died last August 17 in Livorno hospital after a desperate rush to the emergency room the morning of the previous day.
The child, born in Turin, was on holiday in Livorno alone with his mother. The 37-year-old woman originally from the Dominican Republic had said that the child would have felt sick during the night, attributing this physical condition to the fact that he had fallen twice from a slide in a playground in Tirrenia (Pisa) the previous afternoon.
But his story would be disassembled by the investigations, in particular the results of the forensic medical tests, which highlighted the very serious injuries sustained by the child, such as to prevent him from moving independently. In addition, the investigators have reconstructed numerous movements made by the woman with the little one in tow. In particular, the child, following his mother, would have entered a condominium in the Borgo Cappuccini area on the afternoon of 16 August, leaving it in the woman's arms after more than 11 hours, probably already dead.
The hypothesis, considered valid at the moment by the investigating judge, is therefore that the child died after a fall from a height which occurred in the building where he was staying and caused by his mother, who was arrested in Turin by the Flying Squad on charges of homicide and is in prison in Pisa awaiting the guarantee interrogation.
The father of the little one, Italian, had not gone on vacation.
