The stagnation of recent days in the Patras case gives way to new revelations about the deaths of Malena and Iris, under the microscope, with the worst fears appearing to be confirmed and developments in the coming days expected with particular interest.
Live News presents all the evidence and findings that have scientists talking about a new double foul play.
New toxicology tests on the first two children the family lost in 2019 and 2021 have come up clean and, combined with both the lack of a pathological cause and some key findings, have doctors now talking with certainty about deaths by asphyxiation.
Malena passed away in the spring of 2019, with doctors at the hospital where she was being treated appearing completely satisfied with the state of her health and even considering, on that fateful Saturday, to discharge her. The child died in the single room, in front of her mother, who is already accused of murdering 9-year-old Georgina with ketamine.
The new toxicological tests for Malena, carried out at the special laboratory of the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, did not reveal the administration of a toxic substance. Neither ketamine nor any other substance that could be lethal was administered to the girl.
The scientists who analyzed the data stood on the following broad findings: The two micro-eruptions in the child's nasal cavity which, they have now concluded, were caused by lack of oxygen, the extensive cenotopic degeneration of the liver cells, the severe pulmonary edema and severe pulmonary congestion, along with mild parenchymal kidney lesions.
As forensic pathologist Dimitris Galenteris said, all this was targeted at the unfortunate child by the person who wanted to kill him.
In the old forensic examination, signed by forensic pathologist Christina Tsakonas, death was attributed to liver failure. Something that still, it seems, causes reactions and controversy.
Many people wondered whether the death of the three children was a crime after all. It is a legitimate concern, since even scientists were found who unintentionally or intentionally blurred the "picture". This period will end, however, with the two forensic expert reports.
Inside the single room with Malena that day was only her mother.
The new evidence for the death of Iris
The new toxicology tests of little Iris, who died in the crib of her home, in the spring of 2021, when her mother, her aunt and the then 8-year-old Georgina were near her, on that last night in her short life.Four months after the first interview the parents had given, the president of the forensic doctors, Grigoris Leon, clarifies to MEGA what evidence made the scientists conclude that Iris was murdered.
If all this is recorded in the coming days and within the conclusion of the forensic doctors Karakounis and Kalogrias, it is considered certain that a series of procedures will be initiated, with many talking in recent hours about new prosecutions.
In addition to the 33-year-old mother, Roula Pispirigou, the focus is expected to be on her sister, Dimitra, who witnessed the dramatic events first hand - with inconsistencies in her statements being assessed by Homicide officers.
Manos Daskalakis, both the 33-year-old and her sister have said, was away from home and was alerted when the infant was already dead.
The landscape in the thriller seems to be becoming even clearer and everything indicates that the initial fears of a triple criminal act will soon be confirmed.
By the end of the month, everything will be scientifically clear and the puzzles in the dark case of Patras, which shook the whole country, will be answered with new evidence.
Galenteris: Malena and Iris
Speaking to Live News and Nikos Evangelatos, forensic pathologist Dimitris Galenteris stressed that the toxicology tests for the deaths of the two children are expected to be negative.
Which means that the children were not poisoned with a substance, as was the case with Ketamine in the case of Georgina.
At the same time, Galenteris referred to the difficulty of extracting correct results because several years have passed since the children's deaths and the samples that have survived have limitations as they are difficult to process.
"The data from the exhumation will be more reliable than the data we had, it will give more clues," Galenteris added, stressing that it is quite likely that the two children will be exhumed.
