The 2nd cycle will therefore include the additional statements that will be asked to be given by the “key” persons as well as people who are not in the existing case files and have appeared in broadcasts (regional)

As for Plan B, it will be put into effect immediately if evidence capable of shedding ample light on the case does not emerge from the depositions and if Panagiotakis’ histopathological tests come out “clean”, so they do not point to criminal action.
In his quiver the men of the homicide also have a secret plan in order to investigate and shed a lot of light on the shocking case.

The medical examiner will be asked to study all the reports and, with the assistance of the other scientists, will decide whether they identify:
– infant deaths are common
– if there is any evidence of criminal activity

In the event that the investigations “fall” in vain, it is possible to ask the scientific team to review all the existing samples taken from the infants
