The investigating judge in Agrigento, Giuseppe Miceli, has ordered further investigations into the death of 12-year-old Davide Licata, who died during a basketball training session at a school in Favara. The doctor who issued the fitness certificate for the sports association the boy was a member of is under investigation for involuntary manslaughter. While the prosecutor initially requested the case to be closed based on a technical report ruling out a connection between the death and the doctor’s actions, a new expert opinion commissioned by the boy’s parents’ lawyers has convinced the judge to keep the case open. The expert, Gaetano Thiene, has raised concerns about the thoroughness of the medical examination and the absence of a defibrillator at the gym where the incident occurred. Further investigations have been ordered, and the case may go to trial with additional expert opinions.
