Rigopiano, the families of the victims: "Disappointed for filing, but ongoing inquiry"

Family members of the victims of Rigopiano publish on Facebook the displeasure with the decisions of the magistrate, which yesterday has ordered the filing of 22 suspects in the mother investigation into the disaster of the Hotel Rigopiano di Farindola (Pescara), which took place on 18 January 2017, when an avalanche swept the resort causing 29 deaths."We learn with great displeasure the decisions of the magistrate Colantonio. While respecting and accepting this device, we feel obliged to continue our battle in support of the relatives who believed in us and who opposed the requests for archiving", they write on the Facebook profile "Rigopiano, waiting for the Flower", managed by the Rigopiano Victims Committee. "For us – it is still read in the post – it is not a defeat, because reading the motivations well, there are excellent jurisprudential cues to believe that our ideas on the facts were well founded".

"The problem is not represented by the filing itself, – they continue – but by the arguments used by the judge who will certainly respect the penal code and the criminal procedure, but are not consistent with the reality of the incontrovertible facts. In the days culminating then in the tragedy of Rigopiano – the law says – the region was submerged by snow since January 5. Three weather warnings worse than the other until that of January 15. Three provinces out of four were on their knees, three hundred thousand utilities without electricity for days. gip writes that the Core was summoned promptly on January 18 at 3 pm on the day of the tragedy. The day after the sun returned to all of Abruzzo. Is there consistency in all this? ".

"And today, after 29 deaths, the Abruzzo Region acts in prevention, convenes operational meetings and from December 8, it will know how many men and means it can count on to face a snow emergency. Before the people responsible for that tragedy – the Committee writes – we are interested in the truth , we are interested in ascertaining all the facts: Rigopiano seems like a never-ending story, there is always a piece of truth that comes to the surface, we are sure there is no other piece to expect, on everything and everyone, the case D "Angelo. Has anyone or anything limited the horizon of ascertaining the whole truth through investigations? The battle continues to honor our 29 Angels".

In the main proceedings there are 25 defendants (24 people and one company), while in the proceeding concerning the alleged misdirection there are seven defendants. The meeting of these two proceedings will be decided by the judge of the Court of Pescara, Gianluca Sarandrea, at the hearing on December 13th.
