Former Atlantia Chief Gets 12-Year Prison Term Over Genoa Morandi Bridge Tragedy

An Italian court in Genoa sentenced ex-Atlantia CEO Giovanni Castellucci to 12 years in prison for charges including multiple manslaughter and criminal negligence linked to the 2018 Morandi Bridge collapse in Genoa, which killed 43 people. Castellucci was not present for the verdict and is already serving a six-year sentence for a 2013 viaduct incident; a total of 57 individuals faced trial, with prosecutors arguing long-standing maintenance and safety failures contributed to the disaster. The ruling is subject to appeal under Italian law.

Genoa Morandi bridge tragedy drives Italy’s largest post-disaster trial

The 2018 Genoa Morandi bridge collapse, which killed 43 people, spotlighted long‑standing maintenance and design issues and led to what prosecutors call Italy’s biggest criminal case linked to a public-infrastructure disaster. Seventy-nine? fifty-nine defendants face charges from multiple manslaughter to safety violations as the impact unfolds against a backdrop of debates over accountability, maintenance culture, and corruption, even as a new high‑tech bridge was built nearby. Families of victims hope the verdicts will bring justice and prevent future tragedies.
