Overview
- Andrea Sempio, summoned for questioning on Wednesday, May 6, is weighing whether to answer prosecutors or invoke his right to remain silent.
- Investigators cite a photographed palm print with 15 matching points to Sempio, DNA under Chiara Poggi’s nails assessed as moderately to strongly compatible with his paternal line, and new blood‑pattern and autopsy analyses.
- The revised timeline places the killing closer to midday, which weakens the parking‑ticket alibi Sempio produced that was stamped 10:18 a.m. in Vigevano.
- Defense lawyers contest the case, saying shoe‑sole prints tied to the killer are size 42 while Sempio wears 44, and arguing his old forum posts about an “obsession” referred to a bar worker rather than Poggi.
- Witness interviews start Tuesday with cousins Paola and Stefania Cappa and continue with Marco Poggi, as prosecutors move to close the probe and stress their account remains a hypothesis to be tested in court.
