No responsibility for the healthcare facility but a “unwary and reckless” behavior of the mother is at the origin of the seizure of Sofia, the newborn kidnapped in Cosenza on 21 January last and found after about three hours by the police who also arrested the alleged kidnapper, Vespa Rosa. To write it are the lawyers of the Sacred Heart Clinic of Cosenza – where the kidnapping took place – responding to the warning presented last month by the legal lawyers of the little girl against the company “Igreco”, owner of the clinic, contesting to the managers of the structure “the omitted custody and supervision of patients hospitalized, with particular reference to babies”.
In their reply, the lawyers of the “hygreco” argue that The health facility “has implemented all the operational protocols suitable for protecting patient safety” And that Sofia’s mother, at the entrance into the structure “had been duly educated and made evolved by the operators, about the need to contact, exclusively and for any necessity, to the assigned childish, recognizable through uniform and card with identification photos”. The lawyers also argue that the little girl of the little girl, present at the time of the kidnapping, had become suspicious for the arrival in a woman’s room with the mask who then picked up Sofia with the excuse of a visit, pretending to be an employee. In the reply to the warning, the lawyers of the clinic finally highlight how thanks to the video surveillance systems installed within the structure “it was possible to promptly identify the authors of the crime and allow the police to intervention in extremely rapid times for the purposes of arrest, with the consequent discovery of the little girl”.
“I will laugh because it is truly a tragicomic situation” was the commentary on the Ansa of the lawyer Chiara Penna, lawyer of Sofia’s family. “This attitude – he added – reminds me who accused the victims of sexual violence of wearing a skirt too short. Forget that Valeria Chiappetta It was a patient, so they had the obligation to supervise and keep it safely too. On the merits of the question we will enter the competent offices, because in our opinion there is a violation of the security protocols. Above all, because they basically admit that there was a suspicious person who had been wandering in the clinic, undisturbed, for days and even approached patients and nobody worried about asking who he was. In the end the only one who had to worry about asking who was Valeria Chiappetta?. Rosa Vespa – concluded Chiara Penna – came out with a newborn baby, so at the best of the hypotheses, if Rosa Vespa camouflaged herself as a DEEGANI in resignation, nobody has resigned it. As far as we are concerned, there are large contractual responsibilities. At least in the civil seat, the public prosecutor will take care of it ».
