A court in the northern Italian city
of Pordenone on Monday handed a suspended jail term of two
years, six months to an American servicewoman over a road
accident in which a 15-year-old boy was killed.
Julia Bravo, 21, hit and killed Giovanni Zanier when was on a
cycle path in the town of Porcia in August, 2022, while she was
serving at the USAF Base in Aviano.
The court did not recognize drink-driving as being an
aggravating factor because, even though Bravo was positive in an
alcohol test, the test was not considered valid as it was done
more than two hours after the accident.
