Zoe was still alive when she was thrown into the canal

17-year-old Zoe Trinchero was still alive when her friend Alex Manna, now in prison for aggravated murder, threw her into a canal in Nizza Monferrato, and an autopsy has clarified the circumstances of her death.

The tragic case of 17-year-old Zoe Trinchero has taken a disturbing turn as an autopsy revealed she was still alive when her friend Alex Manna, 19, threw her into a canal in Nizza Monferrato, Italy. Manna is now in prison facing charges of aggravated murder for reasons deemed frivolous. The autopsy showed that Zoe died from falling approximately three meters and the impact with the ground, indicating that she was likely unconscious but alive during the assault.

Manna allegedly participated in search efforts for Zoe after the incident, was seen crying near the crime scene, and attempted to deflect suspicion by accusing a 30-year-old African man. This accusation sparked outrage and led to threats of lynching against the innocent individual. Eventually, Manna confessed to the authorities that he had struck Zoe during a heated argument, bringing clarity to his role in the tragedy and reinforcing the murder charges against him.

The implications of this case go beyond personal tragedy, highlighting issues of violence among youth and the psychological aftermath of such violent disputes. This incident raises important questions about how young individuals manage conflict and the societal responsibilities in preventing similar tragedies.
