Garlasco, the Pavia Prosecutor's Office will request a review of Stasi's trial: "He was not at the crime scene."

The Pavia Prosecutor's Office will request a review of the trial in which Alberto Stasi was sentenced to 16 years in prison for the murder of Chiara Poggi , which took place in Garlasco on 13 August 2007.

Today the Pavia prosecutor, Fabio Napoleone, met with the Attorney General of Milan, Francesca Nanni, and the Attorney General Lucia Tontodonati .

"In the coming weeks," Nanni stated, "we will receive information from the Pavia prosecutor's office on what has been done," along with the relevant documentation. "We will study the documents and evaluate whether to request further documentation in order to submit a possible request for review to Brescia."

Studying the documents "will be neither easy nor quick," the prosecutor explained. "We cannot make any further statements, for the purposes of a possible review, because we obviously must first study the documents," she added, explaining the process for a potential review request that the Pavia Prosecutor's Office will have to process and submit to the Attorney General's Office. The latter will then, if necessary, submit the request to the Brescia Court of Appeal.

We will receive an initial briefing, we will evaluate whether to request further documents, and if necessary, we will have to study these documents. In the meantime, we cannot make any statements. We cannot commit ourselves in any way; I always speak in the plural because the matter of the review is reserved to the Attorney General and me.

Alberto Stasi, now 41, and definitively convicted, was not at the scene of the crime, according to the reconstruction by the Pavia magistrates and the Carabinieri of the Milan Investigative Unit. There are numerous elements that conflict with those reported in the convictions.

The consultation with pathologist Cristina Cattaneo reportedly brought the time of the crime back to the initial hypothesis, which excluded Stasi: between 10:30 and 12:00 . And there are other elements on which the conviction is based that have been revised: from the DNA on the pedals to the fingerprints at the crime scene .

In short, Pavia investigators are ready to lay bare all the cards that have remained hidden so far, despite hundreds of hours of television broadcasts dedicated to the case. And, in parallel with the request for a review of the Stasi case, they are expected to request the indictment of Andrea Sempio, a friend of the victim's brother, the only suspect . The investigation is expected to conclude in the coming weeks.
