Overview
- Police questioned father Gianni Di Vita and daughter Alice in Campobasso, a session that stretched through Wednesday as part of the double-homicide inquiry.
- Investigators opened a fresh day of witness interviews Thursday with relatives and friends, and the case file remains against unknown persons with no formal suspects named.
- Tests so far show a preliminary signal for ricin in the victims’ samples, and prosecutors await formal confirmation from specialists before drawing final conclusions.
- The family home in Pietracatella remains sealed and forensic teams plan a new sweep to look for physical traces of the poison.
- Detectives are reconstructing meals from December 23–24 and checking holiday food gifts as possible sources while also searching for any online queries or purchases tied to ricin.
