   When I saw the title I thought it was just going to be a documentary   
   about what happened with her revisiting what she experienced. Not that   
   she was actually going back to Italy. As you say it's just giving the   
   government another shot at prosecuting her.

   Don't forget that they need to cover the negligence of the homeowners   
   and builders. I can understand how some home owners didn't realize the   
   danger their home was in from the construction and how it could be   
   fixed. Or from the trees and plants near their homes. The   
   builders/developers, on the other hand, should have been aware of the   
   dangers.   
      
   From what I've seen it was well known that the potential for the fire   
   to spread was there. And given how simple some of the fixes were that   
   might have limited the spread of the fire I'm amazed they weren't   
   implemented. Things like covering the entries into the attics with a   
   mesh screen to keep out the floating bits of embers would have saved   
   many of the homes.   
      
   Hopefully all of that will be taken into account with the rebuilds.   
   Because with the climate it's a certainty that the fire will happen   
   again, even if it's in a hundred years.
