Probe Into Piacenza Radiology Chief Closed as Medical Board Lifts Suspension

Prosecutors have completed the investigative file and the defence has 20 days to submit written arguments before prosecutors decide whether to seek charges.

Overview

  • The public inquiry into Emanuele Michieletti, the former head of Radiology in Piacenza, has been formally closed and the case file delivered to prosecutors for next steps.
  • Investigators say evidence in the file includes intercepted communications and hidden‑camera footage that reportedly captured dozens of incidents and helped identify at least eight alleged victims.
  • The alleged abuses described in the inquiry span multiple years and include accounts of forced intercourse, unwanted touching and coercion by staff who said they feared the primario’s power.
  • The Ordine dei Medici has revoked Michieletti’s professional suspension, and he is now working in a private clinic while his lawyer prepares defensive memoranda to be submitted within twenty days.
  • Closure of the investigation is not a conviction; prosecutors must still decide whether to bring charges and victims may face further legal steps and testimony as the case moves toward any trial.
