Thanks for the reference. Unfortunately, my Italian isn’t all that great - but it did help, because if you put the name of that doctor into Google, some good English references will come up. The texts are not entirely conclusive as to whether it was deliberate, but if not, then it was gross incompetence. It’s still a little strange that it would be in reponse to the Italian King switching to the Allied side though, because that happened nearly a year earlier.
That’s because she was held captive for 1year before dying.
The thing is that Hitler never trusted her, even though she was pro-Nazi, Hitler never liked her. There’s more on her but as I said, it’s all in Italian.
I think the most horrible thing is that when her father betrayed the Axis (and in my opinion betrayed Italy itself), he picked his goods and runned away from Rome, without even thinking about what could have happend to her daughter.
