He will take the witness stand on 7 and 8 November and his will not be a protected hearing: his lawyer, Giulia Bongiorno, had spoken about it with journalists, motivating a possible request to the judges due to his very troubled by his client and therefore by the need to protect her. But that formal request has not been filed.

Thus the Italian-Norwegian student, alleged victim of group sexual violence and main accuser of Ciro Grillo, Edoardo Capitta, Vittorio Lauria and Francesco Corsiglia , all Genoese friends, will tell her truth in the courtroom of Tempio Pausania, certainly close to closed but without other measures for a less traumatic approach during the hearing. This is the most awaited hearing, the one in which the girl will have to retrace what she claims happened in the terraced house in Porto Cervo owned by the Grillo family on the night between 16 and 17 July 2019, at the end of an evening spent at Billionaire.

A huge hearing is looming: the young woman already answered more than a thousand questions from the police at the Milan station when she filed a complaint upon her return from Sardinia. And he then answered another hundred questions from the prosecutor.

A report of over 200 pages, the contents of which will be discussed next Tuesday and Wednesday. The presence in the courtroom of the four defendants is excluded, defended by a pool of lawyers ready to battle point by point with respect to the reconstruction of the alleged victim.

A script that repeats itself after the dramatic testimony of last 22 and 23 September, when the friend of the main accuser, also an alleged victim of violence, spoke in the courtroom: while she was sleeping on the sofa in the house in Porto Cervo she was filmed with a cell phone with Ciro Grillo, Vittorio Lauria and Edoardo Capitta around them in offensive attitudes and with a clear sexual reference.

«For them I was not a person but an object. It wasn't important that I had a name, I was simply their entertainment", these are his words excerpted from the transcript of his deposition.
