New 'Rape List' Found at Rome’s Liceo Carducci With Names Later Erased

The discovery follows a high-profile case at Giulio Cesare now under a prosecutor’s inquiry, intensifying student demands for consent education and accountability.

Overview

  • Graffiti resembling the earlier Giulio Cesare case appeared in the third-floor boys’ bathroom at Liceo Carducci, with two female students’ names written in marker and later scrubbed by the authors.
  • Rete degli studenti and the Asmara student collective condemned the writings as trivializing or glorifying gender-based violence and called for immediate, concrete change.
  • Bianca Piergentili of the Lazio secondary students’ network urged the introduction of sex and consent education, criticizing institutions for failing to address a systemic problem.
  • Student representatives said Carducci has seen prior incidents, citing reports of some teachers’ anti-abortion or anti-emancipation remarks and misogynistic insults from students.
  • The Carducci episode follows the late-November Giulio Cesare list and a similar report in Lucca; Rome prosecutors have opened an inquiry into the Giulio Cesare case for instigation to commit sexual violence.
