On the one hand, the confirmation by the Court of Cassation that Alberto Stasi, the man definitively convicted for the murder of Chiara Poggi, remains in semi-liberty , despite the Attorney General of Milan having contested the order of the Milanese judges. On the other, further results that are leaking out from the major evidentiary incident underway in the new investigation into the Garlasco case against Andrea Sempio. And that once again do not seem to bring useful results to the investigators: from the fingerprints, in practice, it is not possible to extract DNA useful for comparisons .

More or less at the same time, in the afternoon, two pieces of news arrived, one about the convicted man and the other about the new investigations. From Rome, the first criminal section of the Court of Cassation announced that it had "rejected" the appeal of the Milanese Attorney General's Office , which had requested the annulment of the order with which, on April 11, the Surveillance Court had admitted Stasi, in prison since 2015 and to external work since 2023, to the semi-liberty regime. Among the points of the appeal, signed by the deputy attorney general Valeria Marino of the Attorney General's Office headed by Francesca Nanni, was the failure to request specific authorization to give an interview on TV , which aired on March 30, during a day release. For the Attorney General, leaves can be granted for family, cultural or work reasons and that interview did not fall into any of the three fields. And it was just one of the profiles for which the judges' order presented, according to the Milanese Attorney General, "legitimacy defects" in the motivation. For lawyers Giada Bocellari and Antonio De Rensis, however, Stasi did not have to request any authorization for the interview , as specified by the management of the Bollate prison and then by the judges and "no prescription was violated". The defense line was accepted by the Supreme Court , which will have to file the reasons. All this while for Stasi, who for more than two months has been out in the morning and back in the evening, also being able to indulge in various pastimes, the possibility of finally leaving is also approaching with an application for probation to social services .

In the meantime, from the first checks by the parties' consultants on the data made available today by the experts, appointed by the investigating judge of Pavia Daniela Garlaschelli, it emerged that on those samples on the thirty sheets of acetate, containing about fifty prints found 18 years ago in the Poggi house, sufficient genetic material was not found to extract comparable DNA profiles . Not even in print 10, the now known one that was on the entrance door and that was considered by investigators to be the alleged "dirty hand" of the killer.

"To date, not only the genetic analysis of the evidence found in the garbage, but also the results of the analyses carried out on the acetates, confirm once again that my client Sempio was not at the crime scene , as he himself has been claiming for years," explained lawyer Angela Taccia.

In essence, as reported, the kits for extracting material from the samples have a range that reaches up to a thousand, as a value, and in this case they also remained at 0.1. Initial results that, however, will have to be subjected to further checks with so-called "characterizations" , that is, with further more specific attempts to find DNA. Data that are added to those on the DNA traces found in the garbage samples, which belong either to Chiara Poggi or to Stasi. And none to Sempio.

Furthermore, on papillary trace 10, which cannot be attributed, according to a fingerprinting report by the prosecutors, either to Stasi or to Sempio, the first tests had not even revealed traces of blood .

Also missing is the now famous plaster where to search for genetic material of print 33, that of the palm of a hand on the wall of the stairs near Chiara's body. And which, again according to the prosecutors' advice, would be Sempio's . The blood tests on 10 will, however, be repeated. Still missing are four sheets of acetate on which to take samples, always in search of DNA . The next appointment for a series of activities is July 4 and again in the laboratories of the Scientific Police.
