Overview
- Prosecutors in Pavia have nearly finished their yearlong inquiry into Andrea Sempio and plan to notify the end of investigations before sending the file to Milan’s Prosecutor General to evaluate a possible revision request.
- A new medico-legal opinion by Cristina Cattaneo places Chiara Poggi’s death between 10:30 a.m. and noon, most likely around 11 to 11:30, a window that could undercut Stasi’s timeline and count as new decisive evidence.
- The case file outlines 21 indicia against Sempio, including DNA under Poggi’s nails tied to his family line and a so-called palm print “33” on a cellar wall, while his defense prepares five counter-expert reports and calls the evidence only circumstantial.
- Investigators found a handwritten note with edits to a 2016–2017 draft request to drop an earlier Sempio probe, and they sent the materials to Brescia to check for possible interference linked to wider corruption inquiries.
- Chiara Poggi’s parents have filed dozens of complaints over online abuse, and their lawyer said the compensation paid by Stasi remains untouched in a bank account and would be returned if a court orders it after any revision.
