Soccer legend Diego Maradona did not have to die because he’s the victim of “criminal idiocy” … so claims his lawyer.
Attorney Matias Morla says it took upwards of a half-hour for an ambulance to arrive at Diego’s Buenos Aires home Wednesday … where he had suffered a heart attack.
Prosecutors appear to be looking into the lapse as well, although it’s unclear why. Â There’s been no allegation of foul play.
Diego, arguably the best soccer player that ever lived, underwent brain surgery earlier this month to remove a blood clot. It’s unclear if the heart attack was in any way connected.
Argentina is in mourning over Diego’s death. Â Thousands of folks showed up at the Presidential Palace where Diego’s body was lying in state.
