Truth

With the proposal of the district attorney, the trial of Roula Pispirigou will continue next Thursday (25.01.24) at the Mixed Jury Court for the apology and the attempted murder of her 9-year-old daughter Georgina.

The apology of Roula Pispirigou, which lasted nine days, was completed during today’s session of the Joint Jury Court, with the 35-year-old she repeats that she is innocent and has not killed her childwhile she also made her self-criticism about the outbursts who had these days of her marathon apology.

«I want to apologize for some tense moments, it is a difficult position they are in” said the accused, adding: “Messages were read about my behavior. I may have a bad temper, some may consider me indomitable. I’m the worst person in the world. I have been accused of an offense which is the worst for a mother. I am addressing the Justice and I hope that my child will be vindicated. I want to know the truth. I do not know her. I was desperate for my child’s blood. Come to my place. If it was your own child would you ask for it? I want to know what happened to my child, I want you to help me find out what happened to my daughter.”

The new Kuya requests

For his part, Alexis Kougias, defense attorney for Roulas Pispirigou, submitted to the court a series of new requests, among which an autopsy should be performed at Pedon, but also to read the letter of the geneticist, Carola Vienueza and to be examined additionally, as he claims that after a genetic test to which he submitted Roula Pispirigou, he found that she suffers from a syndrome that affects the heart.

Yes, Alexis Kougias strongly protested the questions put to his principal, pointing out: “It was conveyed to me that the irony went cloud. Getting to the point of being asked by the headquarters why she made love to her husband after the death of the child! What relationship are you in if he got a consensual divorce? Does the congressman watch shows all day? The court conducts a sacred examination. It is unprecedented and will go down in history.”

The district attorney proceeded with her proposal on all the requests that had not been answered to date, asking for the rejection of the request for an autopsy at the Children’s hospital. Referring to the request for a psychiatric expert opinion, the prosecutor requested that it be rejected: “At the time the request was submitted I could not be placed. I mean in the middle of the process we intend to convict or not to convict and take the accused to the mental hospital? The accused has come and tells us I’m fine, I haven’t hurt my child, I’m not suffering from anything, I’m here for my child’s vindication. I will say to be considered? Munchausen is a behavioral disorder. She answered soberly, she told the events in chronological order, she did not give the impression of a woman who is suffering and does not understand what is going on in here.” The court adopted the prosecutor’s proposal and rejected the request.

Earlier, Roula Pispirigou completed her apology, pointing out that she does not know the cause of the child’s death as she has no medical knowledge.

“I’m not interested in being acquitted”

“I’m not interested in exonerating myself. I’m interested in the truth about the child coming out. His cause of death. This is what I meant when I said that Georgina will leave when she is justified,” emphasized the defendant.

The accused referred again to Andreas Iliadis, about whom he said he had information that he is a good doctor.

«I do not know the purpose of Iliad. When asked why he did not go to the prosecutor, he said he wanted to get along with the mother. I do not know the purpose of doing such a thing. Although it was not a public issue, Mr. Iliadis had made statements while Georgina was in the ICU. Apparently, he started the story to accuse me. I don’t know his purpose, just like I don’t know the purpose he was recording” she replied regarding what Andreas Iliadis’ motive might have been to suspect her of the death of her children.

The spikes for Iliadis

“I found it strange that while he blamed both parents for the behavior, he only blamed me for the child. I could never explain this,” the 35-year-old also emphasized.

Conference: When Eliades told you about the low life expectancy, what did he tell you about the future?

Pispirigou: He told me to stop physical therapy and speech therapy because it didn’t make sense.

Conference: How did you inform the father and I imagine your world came crashing down…?

Pispirigou: I called him. He was cursing, saying that Iliadis was talking nonsense.

Conference: Right after the child has an episode and Mr. Iliadis does not ask to see him, although he told you earlier that he was afraid of the fatality… He told you days later to take him for hydration. How do you explain it?

Pispirigou: No, he said to manage at home. I can not explain it.

Conference: Did the pediatricians tell you that the child’s episodes are to be expected because of, say, the magnetic field?

Pispirigou: No, they told us because of the encephalopathy.

Speaker: Then why is there so much discussion about the child’s episodes? Why do they put it in an EEG? Why do they send it to the Children’s after the MRI has shown all this?

Pispirigou: Iliadis had told me that everything will decrease gradually and in the end the child will remain brain dead.

Conference: We were told in the NICU that the child was not having seizures and you said that “I don’t know if he really wasn’t.” Why would they hide it?

Pispirigou: So that Iliadis might say that when he has the child he doesn’t have episodes, while he does with me? I don’t know, now I’m thinking about all this.

“He wanted to hide the ketamine”

The court’s questions were also caused by the fact that the defendant had asked to turn down the sound of the oximeter, while at the same time talking on the phone continuously. “Everyone is talking. I was talking, not shouting” he said with the delegate commenting “yes when a child is in this situation and wants quiet…”.

Conference: You had lowered the oximeter two steps. Can’t hear it in the video though?

Pispirigou: It just sounds like the TV is loud.

Conference: On 1/29 you said that the oximeter did not beat at all. Was there any sound?

Pispirigou: What the bib bib always did.

Conference: You said that at 14.24 the episode takes place and at 14.33 Papagiannis is called. So in three minutes the anesthesiologist came out and said the child is blue and gone?

Pispirigou: I can’t check the time, I don’t remember.

Speaker: You who do not perform medical procedures on the child, how do you take the initiative to disturb the doctor?

Pispirigou: I asked him and he said he wants to talk to him.

Speaker: Did Mr. Papagiannis ask for it or did you?

Pispirigou: I don’t remember.

Conference: Why should the doctor come out and tell a parent that their child is dying and then they scream, as you said you heard?

Pispirigou: Don’t ask me the purposes, I don’t know.

Conference: Do you think the first doctor came in and performed CPR on a child who had not stopped? What did he want to cover?

Pispirigou: That at that time the opposition begins.

Conference: What did the anesthesiologist want to hide?

Pispirigou: Ketamine.

Presenter: Let’s say ketamine was given and that was the intubation protocol. Why would he lie if that was the protocol? He would bring 50 doctors to say that this is how it should be done.

Pispirigou: What I’m assuming is that Raikos called the intensive care unit and told them “I found a boatload of ketamine” and so he told them there was a mistake and they went to cover it.

Conference: They had to target the mother that is?

Pispirigou: Obviously he would save himself. I have never heard of parents blaming a drug that doctors have in their hands. I believe they are all motivated by Iliad.

Conference: So to become famous he accused you?

Pispirigou: I don’t know his mental world. This is where Munchausen came up with!

Conference: Since they had the suspicion that they would be accused of something and they also had the MRI that you told us that the child looked in a very bad condition, why didn’t they report him there? That it was normal for him to die. Why would they put you in the shot? Why;

Pispirigou: It’s the surrounding atmosphere all this. Iliadis started them.

Conference: So April May 2021 he starts a lie about you to become famous, he has told it everywhere to his colleagues and after your child died, then he told it to other doctors to cover up new medical mistakes and then he told it and to journalists to accuse you? This is what you are telling us, so that we can finally understand!

Pispirigou: But here it was heard that he also called about the autopsy. Was she afraid that Ms. Tsiola wouldn’t get what she wanted?!

The “paper”

Synedros: In a message you say to Daskalakis “Hartou did not tell me that I am a murderer”. Since the child was dead why did you go to the paper mill?

Pispirigou: I had very bad company, he was at Georgina’s godmother’s house and she told me to see what the child died of.

Conference: And how did he tell you that you are not a murderer?

Pispirigou: She said it to herself, since that’s what they were saying on TV back then.
(…)

President: You keep saying I don’t remember… do you suffer from some form of amnesia?

Pisprigou: I answer everything but I don’t remember the times. I wasn’t with the watch on my hand.

President: So should we trust the calls and messages?

Pispirigou: Obviously.

President: You said before “I know what has happened to my child”. What do you mean;

Pispirigou: I know that I have not hurt my child.

“I’m sure if you tried a medical malpractice case you would have answers about what happened. Then they would have scientific opinions to contribute. They would tell the truth and nothing would be inexplicable and unreasonable,” Rula burst out

Pispirigou with the president asking: “Well then, in the first suspension in Karamandanio if they knew why they didn’t tell you why your child was suspended?”.
