Businessman Fábio Mocci Rodrigues Jardim, aged 42, died during an MRI scan on his head at a clinic in Santos, on the coast of São Paulo. The cause of death will be known following the results of the autopsy at the Legal Medical Institute (IML).
Fábio went to the clinic at 2pm on Tuesday (22) to undergo the exam. A doctor informed the family that the businessman suffered a massive heart attack, but the Death Verification Service (SVO) considered the case as a “suspicious death” and asked the IML to perform an autopsy.
“This all makes me distressed and nervous,” the businessman’s widow, Sabrina Altenburg Penna, told G1 Santos. “I went in with my husband, I came out with a paper in my hand.”
The businessman would take the exam to investigate the frequent drowsiness he was feeling during the day, according to his wife. It was the first time he would have an MRI, but he was calm, he says.
On Tuesday, the exam was 2 hours late, but Fábio didn’t complain, even though he was fasting. Sabrina left the clinic to go to lunch, all in the same office building. In less than 30 minutes, she returned and asked an employee about her husband, wanting to know if he was okay. “She said yes, that she was taking the exam, it was agitated, normal, but that everything was fine”, he states.
The wife waited for the exam to end and shortly after noticed a strange movement, with a lot of coming and going. She questioned the employee about her husband, and was told that Fábio had felt ill, “but we are already sorting it out.”
The woman waited for around 40 minutes until she saw two professionals from the Mobile Emergency Care Service (Samu) entering the resonance room. “Samu’s doctors opened the door to enter and I saw that he (Fábio) was lying down and there was someone on top of him doing the (cardiac) massage with their hand”, he recalls.
Soon after, his wife was informed that Fábio had died of a massive heart attack. The police were called and the wife had to go to the police station to register the case.
Fábio’s body was sent to the Death Verification Service (SVO), which issued a document stating that a necroscopic and toxicological examination carried out by a coroner was “prudent and necessary.” “Due to exposure to other drugs, medicines and biological substances, unspecified, undetermined intent – residence.”
Fábio Mocci Rodrigues Jardim left a daughter, aged 6, and a stepdaughter, aged 14, in addition to his wife. The whole family is now waiting for an answer about what really happened to the businessman.
When contacted, the clinic did not respond to contact attempts.
