According to a surveillance video, she left the ICU unit of the Giulesti Maternity Hospital in Bucharest for 12 minutes, the time when a fire broke out and put the children ablaze. The video also shows Cirstea left the ICU several times that day.
The fire started in an electrical cable attached to the air-conditioning unit of the intensive care room, quickly swept the room, burning incubators and other medical equipments according to prosecutor’s preliminary conclusion.
Surveillance footage also showed medical staff and parents were frantically trying to enter, breaking the door with to chair, to save the children from the burning ICU.
