A testimony that seems supported by the marks left by the impact on the Audi. The most damaged part is that of the driver of the car.
But it is clear that the investigations are continuing at 360 degrees and only the expert opinion, which the prosecutor will have in a few days, will clarify the last doubts.
The investigations
Although the situation has crystallized, investigations into the tragedy continue. The papers of the investigations carried out by the carabinieri have arrived on the table of the deputy prosecutor who deals with the case and now they await another decisive step which is that of the appraisal.
What happened before the investment is absolutely not part of the investigation. As is well known, Miriam on the day of the tragedy had spent the evening with her boyfriend Tommaso and her brother in a pizzeria in Paderno.
Around midnight she called her father, Jon, to reassure him and tell him she was staying for the night at her boyfriend’s house.
But the girl for a trivial matter of jealousy, in the middle of the night, had changed her mind and had left her boyfriend’s house, in via Cadorna in Paderno, around 3.50, chased by Tommaso and his brother who wanted to persuade her to return. Unfortunately, however, the tragedy soon took place.
Dad
Giovanni Ciobanu, Miriam’s father, would have appreciated a phone call from Mario Giovanardi, Alessandro’s father, who was driving the Audi A3 and his colleague.
