Family in the woods, parents denounce social worker. And today they will undergo a psychiatric examination
A "hostile" and "deficient" approach corroborated by "statements of irreparable gravity" that "compromised the serene investigation of the events" for the lawyers
A new episode in the case of the woodland family. It is the action of the Anglo-Australian couple's lawyers, who have sent an application for the removal of the social worker who has been looking after their three minor children for more than a year.
Lawyers Marco Femminella and Danila Solinas, in particular, try to demolish point by point the claims of social worker Veruska D'Angelo, accused of being the 'censor' who 'rails against educational methods that are considered different and therefore wrong'.
"Hostile and lacking" approach
A 'hostile' and 'lacking' approach corroborated by 'statements of irreparable gravity' that 'compromised the serene assessment of the events'. The lawyers' document, quoted by Ansa, was sent to the Alto Vastese social district and to the Disciplinary Council of the Order of Social Workers and is a real indictment of the social worker who, they write, 'saw the parents and the minors for a total of five meetings', three of which 'unjustifiably and incomprehensibly in the presence of the police'.
The Mushroom Case
According to Femminella and Solinas, the assistant 'distorts, aggravates and even vague facts that have never been verified' and 'denied by official documents'. In particular, they cite the case of the mushrooms, from which the first report to the social services originated. None of the family,' the document reads, 'turned out to be 'poisoned' as D'Angelo allegedly claimed, but it was 'a trivial food poisoning that never endangered the lives of the minors'. "It is undeniable," the lawyers continue, "the desire to portray the parents as negligent fools, dangerous to themselves and their children".
Psychological expertise
An act that comes on the eve of the first psychological examinations to which the parents will be subjected, on 30 January, by order of the Juvenile Court of L'Aquila. A couple that, according to the expert witness, psychiatrist Tonino Cantelmi, is now 'prostrate', 'torn apart by a separation that appears increasingly incomprehensible'.
