Matias Morla, former lawyer of Diego Armando Maradona , argued that the medical treatment given to the Argentine champion, after the brain operation "was very bad, and led to his death", an event to which - according to him - he would also have contributed the superficiality of his daughters, Dalma and Giannina, who authorized his transfer to a villa, instead of keeping him hospitalized in the clinic.
At the end of an interrogation by the public prosecutor of San Isidro, who investigates the circumstances of the death of the former footballer, Morla reported some details of the last time he saw him, on November 16, 2020, nine days before his death.
"The mistakes made - he said - were many because Diego died, he swelled and swelled until his heart exploded".
The medical treatment that Maradona received "was very bad, that's why he died" on November 25, 2020, the lawyer insisted, recalling that the Pibe de oro suffered from kidney and liver problems, heart failure, neurological deterioration and addiction. from alcohol and psychotropic drugs.
"When I entered the house - he recalled - he had a strange voice, like that of a robot, very high and intermittent. I informed everyone of his state of health. Then I realized that it was due to the amount of water retained in the body".
The medical team of seven who assisted the former player was heard by the magistrates: its members are accused of the crime of simple murder with possible intent.
Finally, Morla called the family's decision to continue Maradona's recovery outside a hospital setting "madness".
He, he explained, "had no reason to go home when the doctors said he had to stay in the clinic."
Finally, the lawyer insinuated that the former Napoli player had been "abandoned by his daughters", Dalma and Gianinna , but in this context "moral responsibility is one thing and legal responsibility is another".
