  1. ANSA – PORDENONE, 22nd of August: The US- american soldier, 20 years old, was drunk the night between last Saturday and Sunday; when she ran over and killed the 15-year-old boy in Porcia (Pordenone).

    The alcohol test was positive: the blood alcohol level was detected at 2,09 grams per litre; 4 times what is legally allowed.

    The accusations against the young soldier will not change drastically, however her situation is now more severe.

  2. Interesting that in the context of increased Fear from Russia, the us government has pushed and obtained for Norway to let the US try their own soldiers for both crimes done in service and outside. I wonder then if that case had happened in Norway, whether the police could have arrested the person or not.

  3. That tracks with my experience of young marines near military bases in Italy. Hopefully she will actually face legal consequences and the family may get some small comfort from that, but this hasn’t been the first similar incident and won’t be the last
