On Wednesday, August 13, the autopsy at the Sassari morgue is expected to shed light on the death of Giovanni Marchionni, the 21-year-old who died last Friday aboard a yacht docked in Marina di Portisco, Olbia . He was likely killed by fumes from a portable toilet or the hull's batteries .
The autopsy was entrusted to coroner Francesco Serra. Prosecutor Milena Aucone of the Tempio Pausania Public Prosecutor's Office is continuing the investigation into the young man's cause of death. She immediately seized the vessel and initiated manslaughter proceedings against unknown persons .
Tempio investigators are also examining the testimony of a woman who was with the 21-year-old the night before the tragedy but decided to leave the yacht because she smelled a "bad odor" on board . This, if confirmed, would lend further weight to the fumes hypothesis.
Marchionni worked as a skipper on a vessel owned by a Campanian nautical entrepreneur who was vacationing on the island with relatives and friends . The boy's family, assisted by lawyers Maurizio Capozzo and Gabriele Satta, want to clarify the matter and are wondering why the young man was left alone to guard the boat all night .
Yesterday in the port of Baia in Bacoli (Naples), the town where Marchionni lived, hundreds of boats sounded their sirens as a sign of condolence and to ask for clarity on his death .
"A tragedy that shocked everyone. He was on a large yacht, for work. A cheerful boy, loved by many. A dreamer who loved the sea. A boy full of dreams and hopes, who left Bacoli to work on the Costa Smeralda ," wrote Bacoli Mayor Josi Gerardo Della Ragione on social media, declaring a day of mourning for the day of the funeral.
A case that has gone national, because even in Gaeta, Lazio, boats honked for the young worker. The mayor of Bacoli posted the video on his social media profiles this morning: "A unanimous request has also come from Lazio. The truth for Giovanni," he wrote, describing a case that raises "many question marks."
