Sara Guglielmetti The Garlasco case continues to attract media attention. While waiting to see whether Andrea Sempio, accused by the Pavia prosecutor's office of murdering Chiara Poggi, will be sent to trial, Sempio himself was interviewed by a correspondent for " E' sempre Cartabianca." Here's what he had to say.
Garlasco case, Sempio's shocking statement on live TV: "If all goes well, I'll do..."
Andrea Sempio, the only suspect in the Pavia prosecutor's office's new investigation into the Garlasco crime , was interviewed by a correspondent for the Rete 4 program "E' sempre Cartabianca," hosted by Bianca Berlinguer. In recent days, several videos recovered from devices seized from the 38-year-old have been released, in which he speaks to himself about sexuality, women, and violence, even arguing that rape could be a reproductive strategy.
Sempio disputed the way those recordings were presented, explaining that the fragments were part of broader discussions: “On television we're shooting blanks, the real part is the legal one.” At that point the journalist asked him: “Many emphasize your strong self-control, you always said I have to wear a mask ”. And Sempio: “Most of the negative consequences have come from the media attention, we're talking about a murder, that is, we're talking about a life sentence, obviously if things go badly and I go to prison tomorrow, if all goes well I could do 30 years, my parents are dead by now.
That's enough, finish your days in prison."
Garlasco case: Angela Taccia on the possible indictment of Sempio
It's still unclear whether Andrea Sempio will be sent to trial. His lawyer, Angela Taccia , believes it's possible: " It's very likely , but we're ready, as we were after the first 415 bis ruling notified to us in May, and I'd say perhaps it's truly time for us all to face each other in a cross-examination before an impartial, third-party judge. " Finally, journalist Marco Oliva emphasized how this new investigation could lead to a trial fraught with uncertainty.
