The examination: 'Facial injuries not caused by the fall'
An expert report suggests that David Rossi's facial injuries were not the result of his fall but instead compatible with external pressure applied by other people.
A recent expert assessment indicates that David Rossi's facial injuries may not have resulted from his fall from a window, contradicting initial conclusions. The forensic analysis conducted by medical examiner Robbi Manghi and RIS officer Adolfo Gregori, who are technical consultants for the Parliamentary inquiry into Rossi's death, suggests that the injuries are consistent with pressure exerted on Rossi’s face and head by third parties. This finding was disclosed during a new session of the Committee investigating his death, which occurred on March 6, 2013, when Rossi fell from the window of his office in Siena.
The report highlights that the pressure applied to Rossi's face against anti-pigeon wires could explain the cuts on his lip and around his nose, while trauma caused by pressure against the window's security bars likely led to the observed head contusions, cuts, and bruising documented the day after his death. These new insights raise serious questions about the circumstances surrounding Rossi’s fall, particularly given that Rossi was the head of communication for Monte dei Paschi di Siena (MPS) and that his death has been shrouded in controversy and speculation.
As the investigation continues, the implications of this forensic report could lead to further inquiries and investigations into not only Rossi's death but also the practices surrounding the events leading up to it. This case has garnered significant public interest in Italy, and the findings may further challenge the official narrative presented thus far, implying potential foul play and necessitating a thorough reevaluation of the facts surrounding the incident.
