Overview

• The Palermo medico-legal institute’s autopsy found water in Simona Cinà’s lungs and ruled out cardiac pathology or signs of violence.
• The Procura di Termini Imerese has opened an omicidio colposo investigation against unidentified individuals for potential negligence.
• Carabinieri seized 25 empty gin bottles, four Aperol spritz, nine spumante bottles and Simona’s clothing two days after her death, during which the villa remained unsealed and unsupervised.
• Cinà’s family disputes official records of abundant alcohol, insisting they saw no traces when they arrived at the scene at dawn.
• Toxicological and histological tests due in about 40 days will assess whether intoxication or an underlying condition precipitated the drowning.
