The judgment of the Court of Assize of Turin on April 15 2011 represents
the first stage of the judicial facts related to the stake of ThyssenKrupp, the
story that is now carved in the collective imagination as one of the greatest
if not the most serious accident at work of recent times. The Court of Assize
of Turin, the outcome of a trial of considerable technical complexity in
legal as well as social and media impact, welcomed the setting accusatory,
condemning the E. the penalty of 6 years 16 months' imprisonment (also)
for the crime of murder with dolo eventuale. The claim of responsibility for
eventual intent of the employer to fatal accidents and injuries to workers
constitutes a novelty in jurisprudence known. This innovative reconstruction
did not find unanimous consent in the commentators and certainly will
again discuss interpreters and legal practitioners, in relation to the possible
practical implications of extending the notion of dolo eventuale in the field
of workplace accidents.
