Overview
- Fabrizio Corona was interrogated on Tuesday at the Milan courthouse after requesting to be heard, having been placed under investigation following Alfonso Signorini’s complaint for unlawful dissemination of sexually explicit material.
- Police searches at Corona’s home and the Velvet Cut studios led to the seizure of devices and footage, with forensic copies acquired under the direction of deputy prosecutor Letizia Mannella and prosecutor Alessandro Gobbis.
- Investigators seized chats, photos and videos tied to Corona’s YouTube format Falsissimo, including content shown in a first episode that featured private exchanges referring to Signorini.
- A second episode aired Monday night with an interview in which former Grande Fratello contestant Antonio Medugno alleged misconduct and said he would file a complaint, though prosecutors said no additional filings were on record as of Tuesday.
- Corona and his legal team dispute the revenge‑porn characterization as they argue public interest, while other figures have pursued actions against him and consumer groups have lodged a formal petition seeking clarity.
