Grosseto – A sentence to 16 years ‘imprisonment and a month shutdown – 10 years less than the request of the prosecutor – but the aspect that most annoys Francis Schettino is the sentence for the abandonment of the ship. “ It is a disgrace , have not escaped from the ship, and I can not accept this verdict. I’ll just make an appeal. ” The device is read after nearly eight hours of deliberation in a classroom full of reporters and onlookers, while former captain of the Costa Concordia hears on TV from his brother’s home in Meta di Sorrento.
Burn indictment , but above all the burns have been branded as a coward, although it is not considered in danger of escape: the Court presided over by John Puliatti rejected the request of a restrictive measure in prison or under house arrest.
The tears of the former commander of the judgment before
The Verdict
The verdict was milder air. Not a twist because the demand was high and provided the maximum penalty for each of the offenses charged. But Maria Navarro, acting attorney and owner of the investigation confirms to “be totally satisfied. Our prosecution has held up in full. Judges not recognized extenuating circumstances and condemned Schettino across the board. ” Why, then, 10 years less? The explain pm Leopizzi Alessandro and Stefano Pizza while you make space between the cameras: “It was not recognized the aggravating circumstance of conscious guilt for multiple murder manslaughter.”
In the sense that the court Schettino could not foresee the deaths derived from the accident . Aggravating instead admitted to the crime of manslaughter wreck, in the sense that the former commander was considered aware of his accident with the bow and caused 32 deaths and 5 billion in damage. President John Puliatti, assessors Marco Crescent and Sergio Compagnucci, have accumulated so 5 years for the offense of culpable disaster , 10 years for multiple murders culpable and 1 year for the crime of abandonment of the ship and persons incapable.
The comparison
For intentional crimes is an eloquent condemnation that has no criminal record in Italy. That is to say for the fire at ThyssenKrupp , in the first instance, the sentence was 16 years and 6 months for culpable disaster but with intent.
The countermove
The court in Grosseto has also rejected any request for precautionary measures , even the simple withdrawal of the passport travel prohibition. Schettino was however banned for five years from the post of commander of the ship, for 4 months of professional Captain and condemned perpetual interdiction from public office.
“ We are not at all satisfied with the judgment – says one of the lawyers of Schettino, Donato Laino – we will use .” And the other defender, Domenico Pepe, adds that “the punishment is still lower compared to the requests of the prosecutor. Schettino is not a criminal This has always been a negligent accident. ”
The court also fixed the provisional for the plaintiffs, including 1 and a half million euro to the Ministry of Environment, 300 000 € to the City of the island of Giglio, 50 000 to the province of Grosseto and 30 000 euro to the Moldovan dancer Domnica Cermortan, present on the bridge at the time of the collision and that he admitted a flirt with Schettino. Satisfaction among the plaintiffs. Michelina Suriano, one of the most aggressive, “Right condemnation, are intentional crimes. Good the provisional to the plaintiffs that reach 10 million. ”
