Overview
- Rome prosecutors placed a long‑time maintenance worker under investigation on suspicion of illegal access to the Tronelli apartment’s cameras and revenge porn.
- Police say the system was not hacked, noting the intruder logged in with a valid password rather than breaking through the network.
- Investigators are mapping the first upload and the spread of the clip, which reports say was posted to Pornhub before it bounced across sites, private chats and Telegram groups.
- De Martino filed a complaint on August 9, 2025 after discovering an intimate video recorded inside his partner Caroline Tronelli’s home was circulating online.
- Italy’s privacy regulator warned that any further sharing was likely unlawful and pushed platforms to remove the footage, yet the video persisted in closed groups, compounding harm to those filmed.
