Investigations continue into the Pietracatella mystery, where Sara Di Vita and her mother, Antonella Di Ielsi, died of ricin poisoning in December . The Larino Prosecutor's Office has reportedly ordered computer searches at three schools in Molise: investigators will comb through 155 computers to verify possible research on the toxic substance and gather new evidence to support the investigation.
Computer checks and links to the Di Vita family
Investigators ' attention is extending to those close to the victims' families. As highlighted by Ansa , the husband of the professor, a friend of Gianni Di Vita , works at the Agricultural Institute in Riccia . Sara's father and Antonella's husband are also friends.
The woman , who taught at the local scientific high school, has already been interviewed by investigators and in recent weeks was involved in a six-hour meeting with the former mayor of Pietracatella at the Campobasso police headquarters. The meeting was said to have helped clarify the inconsistencies that had emerged in their respective accounts of the events.
The teacher's husband was also questioned several times as a person informed of the facts, in relation to alleged contacts and a possible meeting with Antonella Di Ielsi in the days preceding 23 December.
During the broadcast "La Vita in diretta" on Rai 1, writer Elisabetta Cametti speculated that investigators have already identified several platforms on which suspicious searches were conducted. " They've identified the area and realized that they most likely involve computers accessed by multiple people ," she explained, emphasizing the need to identify the devices used and compare the results with other investigative evidence.
This could include the geolocation of cell phones and other devices linked to the people involved in the investigation. " It's now clear that we're dealing with a lead involving people who are absolutely close ," Cametti concluded.
