Lucrezia Ciotti The Garlasco case is back in the spotlight with a new development in the investigation into Andrea Sempio , under investigation for the murder of Chiara Poggi. The defense has returned to the Pavia courthouse to examine some wiretaps previously deemed irrelevant: Angela Taccia speaks of "interesting" elements that could help clarify the context of the case.
Garlasco, Sempio amid wiretaps and corruption allegations: the defense awaits answers from the Prosecutor's Office.
The lawyers' work follows the Pavia Prosecutor's Office's announcement of the new closure of the investigation on September 28. The announcement, which came after further investigations and consultations, maintains the prosecution's case against Sempio and paves the way for the Prosecutor's Office's subsequent assessments regarding a possible indictment. Among the elements examined by the investigators are new tests on the shoe trace and DNA , included in the material filed with the conclusion of the investigation.
The defense must submit its counterarguments by October 18. Taccia also reiterated the position already expressed regarding Sempio's involvement: " We remain convinced that if the storm we saw hadn't arisen, Andrea Sempio would not have been involved in the new investigation . " The lawyer also argued that, in her opinion, the evidence against her client is not so solid, citing in particular the issue of the trace from the size 42 shoe and the so-called trace 33.
Another investigative front remains to be clarified. Taccia confirmed that she has filed a request with the Prosecutor's Office to find out whether Andrea Sempio is formally under investigation for corruption in the case transferred from the Brescia Prosecutor's Office to the Pavia Prosecutor's Office following the dismissal of former Deputy Prosecutor Mario Venditti . This hypothesis had been relaunched by the program Quarto Grado , but, at the moment, the lawyer clarified: " At the moment, I have not yet received a response from the Prosecutor's Office . "
Garlasco, Sempio's lawyer reveals: "Something interesting has emerged."
A new development has emerged in the investigation into the murder of Chiara Poggi , killed on August 13, 2007, in Garlasco. This morning, Wednesday, October 7, Angela Taccia , one of Andrea Sempio's lawyers, returned to the Pavia Courthouse along with her colleague Liborio Cataliotti to examine several wiretaps previously considered " irrelevant " by investigators . This investigation, according to the defense, could provide further evidence to reconstruct the full picture of the case.
Before entering the courtroom, Taccia explained: " We want to understand what has emerged, to prepare ourselves for a possible request for indictment, for a trial . " At the end of the interview, as reported by Il Giorno , the lawyer then said that " something interesting " had emerged from the conversations , which could help us better clarify the context . The examination, however, is not yet complete: " In the next few days," Taccia added, "we will return to listen to more wiretaps . " The defense is in fact completing its analysis of the documents in preparation for the next trial deadline.
