Dalma Maradona, the eldest daughter of the late Argentine football legend Diego Maradona, testified in a negligence trial against seven healthcare professionals involved in her father's care. She accused the medical team of deceiving the family and failing to provide adequate care, which she believes could have prevented his death on November 25, 2020, in Tigre following brain surgery. Maradona died from heart failure and acute pulmonary edema. Dalma stated that the medical team promised a home hospitalization setup with full medical equipment and 24-hour care, which she claimed never materialized. She described the conditions of the house where her father was staying as 'disgusting' and smelling of urine. The trial, taking place in San Isidro, north of Buenos Aires, involves accusations against Maradona's personal physician Leopoldo Luque, psychiatrist Agustina Cosachov, and psychologist Carlos Díaz, among others. They are charged with 'homicide with possible intent,' facing up to 25 years in prison if convicted.
