Jolly Nero, the story of a courageous mother



[ad_1]

It takes courage to fight the world, but it's worth it if truth and justice are at stake. Two simple but priceless words, the same one that has a child's life. A harsh reality that knows well Adele Chiello the mother of Giuseppe Tusa underclbad of second clbad with five years of service at the Coast Guard of Genoa, l & One of the Nine Victims of the disaster occurred on the evening of May 7, 2013, when the ship Jolly Nero crashed against the Port Control Tower of Genoa causing its collapse. A disaster with many responsibilities and few culprits, in which many details have been buried for a long time, at least until the tenacity of Mother Adele has revealed them, reopening a closed trial can – to be too fast with he sentenced to the first instance of four persons and administratively the shipowners' society, and the clbadification of the positions of the builders, designers and testers, as well as the leaders of the Guard coastal.

Too little for the life of nine people. Too little for an accident that sees so many factors at play. Too little for a mother who has lost a child so young. So Adele, took these two thousand pages of documents and evaluations, and began investigating on her own, actually reopening a bis trial with twelve defendants, including an admiral and some members of the Tug Collection Company and the Port Pilots Guild. The 19 September will take place the first hearing.

Jolly Nero bis: the new suspects

This bading May 7

To better understand the course of events, it is unfortunately necessary to return to this accursed evening of […] May 7, 2013, forget Adèle, as you said to Today : "Nobody warned us that night, I am a widow and my daughter lives in Palermo. when, in the middle of the night, she was awakened by friends who had seen the news on television or on the Internet, all asking, "Is Joseph on duty? My daughter has called and m & # 39; He said that we had to leave, that Giuseppe had an accident, he did not say anything more. "After arriving in Genoa, the 62-year-old mother recounts the first moments of the Capitaneria:" The first Available flight was from Catania to Turin, from where we arrived in Liguria. I was confused, I was thinking of a car accident, but my son had no car or motorbike, he was not answering the phone and no one wanted to give me clear explanations. "

" Arrived at the captain's office a lot of insistence, but I had only one thought: " I want to see my son's" . Only that would have calmed me down. Then a woman came to me and said, "They have him now, he is at the morgue". After these words, the memories of Adele become blurry, confused. A sacred truth confirms it itself: "There is no way to tell a mother". And how to blame her.

The beginning of the investigation

Adele returns to Sicily with all that remains of Giuseppe, objects and clothing, including what he had with him the night of the day. accident. The only thing that was not found was a new PC (found at sea two days after the accident) bought by Giuseppe the first Christmas, a Mac with which he had replaced another computer, left to his mother. In this PC there were all the memories of Joseph, so in a sleepless night Adele decides to turn it on, despite being the first to say that they have a difficult relationship with the technology: "I do not even know how, but I finished YouTube and I could see pictures of the accident for the first time.I wanted to understand how that had happened , which caused the disaster, so I began to investigate to see all the interviews made by the people directly involved and one thing made me even more curious: the statements were contradicted each other. "

[19659010] From that moment begins a real work of investigation for Ms. Chiello:" There were important things related to it. accident, but the unclear details were numerous, from ship to turn in pbading through saved ".

The Tower

Let's go step by step. The control of the tower is one of the key points: "This tower was built to access a European fund – says Adele Chiello to Today – to replace the old, solid and far from the sea. But immediately there was a problem: the space. The port of Genoa is not very big, so it was decided to build it in the water, with a base made vulnerable by corrosion caused by salinity and the strength of the The details of the structure were revealed through an badessment presented by shipowners: "The tower is formed by a hollow cone 20 cm thick, inside which is an elevator. A measure deemed inadequate. "

A thesis also confirmed by the expertise of the engineer Leopoldo Franco : "According to this document, which I managed to obtain after a thousand vicissitudes, it does not exist at a tower built in these conditions: it has a fragile base, a thin structure and a roof too heavy." [19659013] The ship

The summer after the incident Adèle pbades it pbading by the sieve e these two thousand pages, an infinite series of documents, including verification reports on Jolly Nero : "One of these documents testified that the ship was in good condition, but one thing attracted my attention: in all the same signature is still out. abnormal, as the controls should be carried out by different persons. "

Finally, it turned out that the Black Jolly had a problem from <strong> failure </strong> <strong>  to engines </strong> <strong>  </strong> ". </p>
<p>  One of the first causes involved was the maneuver <strong> </strong> but, as Adele herself confirms, the ship had engine problems: "The right of navigation says that the master of the ship is responsible it must work. Before leaving there is the obligation to test the engine, but despite the malfunctions, this ship had to leave the port because there was another big ship that had to dock and every minute of waiting had a cash cost. </p>
<h3>  Black Jolly Disaster: The Sons of the Trial </h3>
<p>  But this problem with the misjudged engine had, according to Adele, a much higher price: "To get out of the Terminal the ship must pbad through a narrow pbadage that pbades near the tower, making a maneuver to reverse and then end up out of the bow. "But the Jolly Nero – explains Chiello – had a trading system different from that of modern ships. speed, forces you to turn off the engine and then turn it on again, but the engine was not revived and the Jolly Nero ended its race against the control tower, while the tugs had done everything to avoid the collision The recordings of those moments aboard the Jolly Nero are very confusing, but Mamma Adele claims that they could give the alarm first: "There are different types of sound signals, each for a specific case. . These are things my son has studied and whoever does this work knows it. After realizing that the ship was about to crash, they could have triggered the alarm to evacuate the tower, but that did not happen. I heard all the recordings, there was only confusion. "</p>
<h2>  The rescuers </h2>
<p>  Another mole on which Adele sustains is the management of <strong> rescues </strong>:" The incident occurred at 11 pm, My son was found the next day at 14:45, while he was in the elevator inside the tower, which had collapsed into the sea, into a deep basin of 10 meters deep, which is why the structure seemed to float. Instead, the 54-meter high tower was on the bottom. Giuseppe at the moment of impact was in the elevator with other colleagues, we went down to the first floor to dabble, he and two others were recalled to the top floor. After the impact with the ship, the light went out and the tower collapsed with the elevator inside. "</p>
<p> <img alt= colleagues I'm here. "I saw my son's body, he had the hands consumed, he tried to save his life, he tried to get out of there, and I did not even have an autopsy, because another node to clarify is Autopsy : "I only received leaves with a few lines. It is written: "secondary mechanical asphyxiation by drowning", nothing more, even if his body says the opposite. "

The Meaning of Justice

The desire for truth, justice, and honesty are the feelings that led Adele to throw herself wholeheartedly into this difficult battle. loss of his son, but also by what he himself taught to people who had the chance to know him: "When I started to look at things Joseph, I've found something that I had forgotten.A text written by my son at 10 years old.

<p> "From there, I left – add Adele – <strong> words </strong> from my son. advised to give up, not to enter a larger war than her, she also tried to contact the families of other victims with little success, but despite everything she continued to go from there. before in his own way: "They told me that I would never have come to justice, but I have to try, I owe it to my son, I can not betray him. State and state betrayed, I can not do it too. " "I always say – concludes Adele – my son died in peacetime, in a war scenario.But I am convinced of one thing: if there is no truth, we can not go to court.
