For the 27-year-old driver who pulled over, fatally injured and abandoned the 21-year-old student, last November, in Kamara, to be declared guilty, as he is accused, requested from the judges of the Three-member Court of Criminal Appeals of Thessaloniki, the prosecutor of Edra.

More specifically, he pleaded guilty to dangerous driving resulting in death, leaving a motor vehicle accident and driving without a licence.

Earlier, in his plea, the accused claimed that Emma was suddenly thrown onto the road and he did not manage to avoid her.

“At the height of Kamara, the girl suddenly came out. I was running at 55 km. I turned the steering wheel to avoid her but the car skidded. I didn’t see her,” he said.

The prosecutor’s proposal

During her arraignment, the public prosecutor expressed her belief that the accused driver was speeding above the legal speed limit, otherwise – as she said – he would not have thrown the pedestrian into the air. “He was running neither at 104 km/h (speed as estimated by the expert) nor at 55 km/h (speed according to the technical advisor). The truth is somewhere in the middle. Speed ​​was important to cause these injuries,” he noted.

During her sentencing, the prosecutor also spoke about Emma’s parents’ decision to donate her vital organs after her death. “He was badly injured, he died after five days.

The parents, despite their pain, found the strength to offer life to other people in need, donating her vital organs” were the characteristic words of the prosecutor.

The above report, combined with other reports about Emma’s life, caused an emotional charge for the parents, who burst into tears.
