Notes on this record

What emerges when the official register data are compared with the press sources collected below.

  • The record lists drowning as the cause of death. An article dated 1 October 1995 instead reports the hypothesis, which emerged during the investigation, of a beating death that occurred at Pian di Poma; the other three articles attached to the record remain consistent with drowning.
