«Why wasn't she lubricated?», «How did Corsiglia manage to remove her panties?», «Why didn't she scream?», «Why didn't she wriggle away?», «Did she lift her pelvis?», «Why didn't she used your teeth (in oral intercourse, ed.)?” .

These are some of the questions posed in yesterday's hearing to the Italian-Norwegian girl who accuses Ciro Grillo, Francesco Corsiglia, Vittorio Lauria and Edoardo Capitta of group sexual violence for what happened in July 2019 in the villa owned by the Grillo family in Porto Cervo.

A very harsh interrogation, a dramatic hearing, embarrassing questions that made the girl burst into tears and blurt out: "If I had managed to free myself I wouldn't have gone through this thing, damn" .

«Questions from the Middle Ages», is the accusation of Dario Romano, the civil lawyer representing the young student.

The absolute protagonist of the hearing is the lawyer Antonella Cuccureddu, Francesco Corsiglia's lawyer : « You won't be able to intimidate me. I will continue to do my job the only way I can do it, doing my professional duty to the full,” he said.

«I will inform the court what is happening in this trial. We are all under pressure, even the judges , questions on the matter made even by the court have been stigmatized. I have received hundreds of messages of support from colleagues, magistrates and journalists."

Yesterday Cuccureddu, leaving the Tempio courtroom, explained the reason for those questions: «The girl has already told her story to the prosecutors and the police, before doing so in the courtroom. Obviously the same prosecutors and carabinieri had asked her specific questions about what her actions had been in reaction to what was happening to her. I had to ask the same questions in order to formulate the objections, and she answered differently. Nothing I asked had not already been asked of her, the problem was that she answered differently ."

Too much insistence on intimate details? «We are discussing sexual violence, if it is violence it is not an intimate thing. The trial is carried out to reconstruct the facts and to understand whether what happened was an intimate thing or violence. I have to ask what happened in that place and time, segment by segment, I cannot skip a step."

Today new hearing of the trial, fourth dedicated to the cross-examination of the alleged victim by the defense lawyers . Who want to show three video clips of the alleged rape, which in their opinion would demonstrate the consensual nature of the relationship.
