Overview
- Signorini appeared voluntarily at the Milan courthouse and spent about three hours with magistrates, issuing a categorical denial and answering questions.
- He maintained he never committed abuse or extortion and described himself as the target of a defamatory campaign led by Fabrizio Corona, according to ANSA.
- The investigation was opened on December 30 following a querela by former GF Vip contestant Antonio Medugno, with pm Alessandro Gobbis and Letizia Mannella leading under procurator Marcello Viola.
- Police seized photos, videos and chat messages in a connected revenge‑porn probe in which Corona is under investigation after being heard on December 23 as an indagato.
- Medugno has said he was never intimate with Signorini and that a former manager manipulated him, and he is expected to be heard in the coming days as Signorini remains self‑suspended from Mediaset duties including Grande Fratello.
