The investigating judge of the Turin court validated the arrest and ordered the precautionary measure of custody in prison against the twenty-four year old from Nichelino who hit the child with her car on Saturday evening in via Pinelli, in the Cit Turin district, in the Piedmontese capital. The magistrate would have detected risks of tampering with evidence. According to the reconstruction provided by the defense lawyer Cristian Scaramozzino, the young woman would have lost control of the car after following her boyfriend, with whom she had had an argument, and the child's mother. The child, admitted to the Regina Margherita hospital with trauma to the abdomen and chest, is not in danger of life and has a prognosis of between 30 and 40 days.
The defense version
"My client is shocked and traumatized also because it was absolutely not a deliberate gesture, not only towards the child, but not even towards her partner", declared the young woman's lawyer, Michele Scaramozzino, who continues: "My client defends herself by saying that there had been an argument with her boyfriend because he had been discovered with another woman, who is the child's mother". "After an initial meeting with the man and the other woman who had walked away - the lawyer further underlines, reporting the story of the young 24-year-old - my client followed them for further clarification because she felt cheated. She found them after having rounded a bend, they got scared and changed direction. At that point she braked but skidded, hitting the car and involuntarily also hitting the child".
