Valentin Olariu, Sebi’s father: He asked me if my daughter exists. I have no words.

Livia Dragomir, Roberta’s mother: She asked me if I went to the funeral! Asking such a question to a parent who is burying his child seems to me to be shouting at the sky!

For four hours, judge Ancuța Popoviciu cynically continued the series of shocking questions.

“What did you do for the holidays?” or “You are all affected by the loss of the boy!” were the magistrate’s curiosities.

The judge’s lack of empathy silenced the parents who lost their children

Roberta’s mother raged when the judge asked another ridiculous question to one of the young people injured on the fateful night.

Transcripts read during the trial

Vlad Alexandru Coniac (wounded): I had physical and mental consequences, I lost my job

Judge: Did you come from there together?

Roberta’s mother (gasps): They were together in the Old Customs House, they were coming around May 2, do you really not know anything?

Valentin Olariu, Sebi’s father: Every time he said a pearl!

Two weeks ago, the magistrate also displayed an oppressive silence, before the CSM’s decision, whether to judge Vlad Pascu’s case or not. The previous blunders did not impress, however: the judge stayed.

So today he once again broke the hearts of those who lost loved ones following the accident on May 2.

Transcripts read during the trial

Mihaela Olariu, Sebastian’s mother: We have another girl. But we no longer have life.

Judge: Does he have a sister?

Mihaela Olariu, Sebastian’s mother: He has, I just told you that he has a sister.

Tudorel Toader, former Minister of Justice: These are absolutely unnatural questions. The judge was detached from the reality she was called to judge. Judging someone also means empathy, putting yourself in their place as much as possible. I wonder if she should not undergo an expert examination.

The mother of Sebi, the young man killed by the drugged driver, could no longer bear the humiliation and left the room before her husband directly addressed Vlad Pascu, who was again present via video conference. The judge decided from the first term that he should not physically come to the trial due to media pressure.

Transcripts read during the trial

Valentin OIariu, Sebi’s father: My boy was torn in two, because the car had high speed and was driven by a person drugged with 5 prohibited substances. The lady at the morgue told me that she collected him from the road and asked me for 500 lei for taking him to the morgue.

The parents of the victims say that the defense lawyers were only interested in their bank accounts

Valentin OIariu, Sebi’s father: We don’t sell our children, first of all, and we don’t want money for Vlad Pascu to receive a lesser sentence.

Tudorel Toader, former Minister of Justice: Whatever decision the lady judge takes, the family, the parents, the community will not trust the justice of the measure taken.

“The next court date is in two weeks. Vlad Pascu will be personally brought here, to the court in Mangalia, to receive his sentence. He is being tried in a simplified procedure because he has admitted all his deeds and will receive a punishment of execution because he is being tried under the Anastasia law”, reports Andreea Filip, Observer reporter.

Adrian Cuculis, the victim’s lawyer: If there was no Anastasia law. Vlad Pascu, and I say this bluntly, could have, according to mathematical calculations, left with a suspension following what he produced.

The next appearance will take place on May 23, when the other witnesses will be heard. Meanwhile, the judicial inspection continues the disciplinary investigation of the magistrate.
