One year and 10 months in prison plus the revocation of the driving license. This is the sentence pronounced by the monochrome court of Rome against Davide Rossi, son of the well-known singer Vasco, on trial for serious road injury and failure to take roadside assistance.
The 35-year-old was involved in an accident in the Balduina area on 16 September 2016. In the car with him there was also Simone Spadano, sentenced to 9 months for aiding and abetting as he had declared a falsehood when he claimed to have been driving the car.
Rossi, according to the charge, did not stop at a stop and collided with another car in which two women were traveling, injured. Later the young man had left without providing help. During the trial, he stated that he asked his friend "to do the cid and that he left with the girl who was in the car with us because she was very shaken by the accident, knowing that they were doing the cid I was calm. 'gold and I do not have a stable job, the newspapers have written terrifying things about me but I take the strengths and weaknesses of being Vasco's son ", he added.
After the sentencing, Rossi said he was "indignant", "there was also a signed CID to testify everything, they took the insurance money, it's really absurd, I can't explain it". "Unfortunately - was the comment - I think this also happened because my father is a person in sight. We will appeal and hope that justice triumphs in the end. "
