Investigation for manslaughter: trapper Jordan Jeffrey Baby dies in prison

The Pavia Prosecutor's Office has opened a manslaughter investigation into the death of Jordan Jeffrey Baby, also known as Jordan Tinti. The young man, who had previously attempted suicide and had several legal problems, was found hanged in his cell on March 12. In the Pavia prison, Baby was known to have reported being abused and assaulted by other inmates.

The investigation is being led by Prosecutor Alberto Palermo, and several witnesses have been interviewed, including other inmates. An autopsy is expected to be conducted between Tuesday and Wednesday. Federico Edoardo Pisani, Baby's lawyer, and his father are demanding justice and the truth about the boy's death. According to Pisani, it's unlikely the boy's suicide was a deliberate act and suggests the possibility of instigation to suicide or manslaughter. It is hoped that the autopsy will shed light on the cause of death.

Another question raised by the lawyer was why Baby was still being held in Pavia, despite being returned to prison on March 2nd after being temporarily suspended from his therapeutic placement in a community. Gianmarco Fagà, a notorious trapper known as Traffik, is accused of mistreating Baby. Fagà had previously been convicted of robbery aggravated by racial hatred. His trial was scheduled to begin Friday, but was postponed until April 12th due to the inability of one of his lawyers. At the next hearing, Baby's father will represent his son as a civil plaintiff.
