Maradona death trial hears witnesses on home care in Tigre, Argentina

Maradona death trial home care witnesses Tigre WhatsApp group Argentina

The criminal trial concerning the death of Argentine football legend Diego Armando Maradona continued on Tuesday, focusing on the home‑care period at his San Andrés country house in Tigre, Buenos Aires Province.

Four new witnesses were called: Andrea Trimarchi, former accountant for lawyer Matías Morla and Maradona; nutritionist Luciano Spena, who together with clinician Pedro Di Spagna visited the home on 18 Nov 2020 but was refused; neurologist Jorge Macia; and nurse Cinthia Córdoba, who also participated in the “Tigre” WhatsApp group used by the medical team to report vital signs and medication compliance.

Testimony highlighted that the residence lacked basic emergency equipment such as a defibrillator and that the medical team relied on the WhatsApp chat, where the head of Swiss Medical home‑care, Nancy Forlini, coordinated updates. The prosecution argues the messages reconstruct Maradona’s condition between 11 Nov and 25 Nov 2020, the dates leading up to his death at age 60.
