In a stone quarry located in Tuscany, an employee, following a fall, suffered a number of contusions, including to the head, and was taken to the hospital and hospitalized there.
He died a week later.
The Public Prosecutor’s Office opened a file and the designated prosecutor initiated the investigation.
Approximately 7 months after the event, Attorneys Eraldo and Niccolò Stefani were assigned to investigate by the owners and operators of the quarry, who were immediately entered in the register of suspects on charges of manslaughter.
With the granting of the defense mandate, the Firm immediately began the defensive investigation activities.
As a first step, consultants (two engineers and a forensic scientist) were appointed, and once the pool of experts composing the Investigative Criminal Defense Unit was chosen, a timely inspection of the site of the event was organized within a few days.
