An accidental fall would be the cause of death Roberta Beckhmann Hofmanthe thirty-five-year-old Brazilian chef, who died after a seven-meter flight from the “grand staircase” in via Auricchio in Quadrelle, in the province of Avellino around 9pm last Thursday. This is what emerges from the first report filed by the forensic doctor Giovanni Zotti, appointed by the Avellino Prosecutor’s Office to carry out the autopsy examination on the young woman’s body, which took place yesterday at the Thanatology of the Moscati hospital in Avellino, after the assignment of the task to the presence of the victim’s brother, who arrived from Ireland and accompanied by the lawyer Cristina Mancini.
The medical-legal examination on the young woman’s body had been ordered by the prosecutor Cecilia Annecchini, the magistrate who coordinates the investigations of the Carabinieri of the Operational Unit of the Baiano Company and of the Investigative Unit of the Provincial Command of Avellino, to clarify completely the causes of the death of the 35-year-old. In the last few hours it has been hypothesized that the young woman it could have fallen from the wallwhile he was taking photos right on the Quadrelle viewpoint.
Clearer information will emerge from the results of the comparative examination between the images captured by one of the cameras present in the area and the work of the medical examiner Zotti, who yesterday carried out the autopsy on the body, the outcome of which will be known in thirty days. In addition, obviously, to the work of the soldiers of the Provincial Command of the Carabinieri of Avellino, who reconstructed the route taken by the woman through the images from the video surveillance cameras.
Meanwhile, Roberta’s friends, deeply affected by the tragedy, dedicated a commemorative poster to her with the words “We will always remember you for your sunsets”. Roberta loved sunsets and views, as can be seen from her Instagram profile, where she shared images full of positive emotions and beauty. A passion, that of photography, which she cultivated together with cooking, which had also become her job. The 35-year-old Brazilian, who has been in Italy for some time and domiciled in Monteforte Irpino, he worked in the kitchens of a restaurant in Avella, where she was appreciated for her professionalism, skill and cheerfulness. And her desire to capture glimpses of suggestive panoramas may have pushed her to go to the lookout located in the upper part of the municipality of Irpinia, where unfortunately her passion for photography would prove fatal.
