The serious incident took place almost two years ago, in May 2023, at the Community Services Complex for the disabled child Târgu Jiu. A 60 -year -old nurse was offended and beaten on an 8 -year -old boy with an accentuated handicap, immobilized in the wheelchair and who cannot speak, for the simple reason that he screamed.

Later, the child needed several days of medical care as a result of the injuries suffered. The scene was seen by several witnesses, and the nurse did not tell the truth at the hearings.

And, although it was known as having a collector temperament and criminal records, the magistrates from the Târgu Jiu District Court showed a leniency when they gave the sentence in the first instance on January 27, 2025, convicting it to the payment of a criminal fine of 4,000 lei, plus the payment of 5,000 lei as a moral damages to the child. But the nurse appealed the same day. And, as an irony of fate, one week after appealing, the nurse died. But the process went on.

And on Monday, April 28, the Craiova Court of Appeal definitively decided to cease the trial and to leave the civil action regarding the beaten child, an action exercised by the prosecutor, who had initially demanded damages of 50,000 lei. Basically, no one will pay anything in the case of the disabled child who was beaten.

And the details in the indictment are revolting and disturbing.

As prosecutors say, on the day of the serious incident, “Around 07:15, while the witness was in a bedroom near the room where the minor lives, he heard him scream, although he cannot speak, which is why he hurried to start the TV and calmly. As soon as the witness entered the minor's room, he noticed the bed, Headed hands, shaking it hard, raised it from the bed with grid and put it in the middle of the bedroom. One witness then noticed that the minor had several lesions at the face level ”.

In view of all the means of evidence administered in the case, the court found that the relative presumption of innocence provided by the provisions of the Criminal Code in its favor was overturned, being proven, beyond any reasonable doubt, the guilt of the defendant, not being identified in its favor any supporting cause, of non -imputability or non -imputability. However, because the defendant died, the disabled minor will not receive damages for the torments he went through.
