The parents of a 13-year-old boy who allegedly killed a Prada manager when he tossed a statuette off a building in Italy are facing manslaughter charges, according to a report.

Italian prosecutors say the parents “should have supervised the boy,” which they claim would’ve avoided tourist Chiara Jaconis’ death in September 2024, Italian outlet Today reported on Tuesday.

Jaconis, 30, was struck by a 4.4-pound onyx statuette when she and her boyfriend Livio Rousseau were wheeling their luggage down the Spanish Quarters in Naples on Sept. 15

She suffered severe brain injuries before she died in the hospital.

The boy, who prosecutors described as “problematic,” was cleared by an Italian juvenile court – with attention now turning to his parents. In Italy, children under 14 cannot be held criminally liable. 

His parents strongly deny any wrongdoing, arguing that the statuette wasn’t their property and their lawyer says  they have “no case to answer.”

A hearing will be held on June 26, which will determine whether or not the parents should face trial.

Jaconis, who was originally from Padua but worked in Paris, France, was in Naples celebrating her 30th birthday and chilling surveillance footage captured the moments leading up to the tragedy.

She was walking slightly ahead of Rousseau down the street.

He yelled out “Chiara” and cried “Oh my God” before he screamed for help. 

Jaconis had worked for Prada since October 2022 and she managed 15 stores across France, Monaco and Belgium region, according to her LinkedIn.

She previously worked for the fashion brands L’Oreal, Givenchy, and Christian Louboutin in Paris.

Before turning to fashion, she worked at Disneyland Paris as a sales assistant between July and September 2016.

The circumstances behind her death sparked widespread horror across Italy.

“It is a great sorrow, a tragedy that deeply affects all of us,” Gaetano Manfredi, the Naples mayor, said.

Sergio Giordani, the mayor of Padua, branded Jaconis’ death “absurd and tragic.”

Juvenile prosecutors closed their investigation eight months after Jaconis’ death.
