September 24, 2014 The murder of Simonetta Cesaroni is destined to remain a mystery, at least for now. Since August 7, 1990, the truth has not surfaced. 

"Dark points" remain as Vanacore's agenda
In fact, the Cassation writes in the 30 pages of the reasons for the acquittal of Raniero Busco, the girl's ex-boyfriend: "dark points" remain unexplained and "not at all secondary: think, between of them, on finding the agenda of Pietro Vanacore among the personal belongings of the victim found at the scene of the crime ".

On the scene of the crime "several people", blood collected
In another passage of the reasons for the sentence of the Supreme Court it is explained that to the "uncertainty" on the presence of the accused at the crime scene when Simonetta was killed, "there are traces of the presence of different people, whose blood had been found" . This uncertainty, continues the Court of Cassation, cannot "be filled in a different way: the Territorial Court shows, in fact, that the reconstruction adopted in the first instance sentence is suggestive, but largely conjectural in relation to various aspects", such as "carrying out of the phone call from Simonetta Cesaroni to Busco at lunchtime on that day, the content of that call, Busco's knowledge of the place where Cesaroni worked, the spontaneity of the victim's undressing, the author of the work of cleaning the room, the methods and times of this conduct, the motive for the murder, the falsity of the alibi by the accused ".

There is no evidence against Raniero Busco. There is
no evidence capable of accusing Raniero Busco of the murder of Simonetta Cesaroni, the supreme judges point out. There is a "lack of evidence that brings down the certainty of the defendant's presence at the scene of the crime at the time of the crime". In this way, the first criminal section of the Cassation explains why on 26 February last, he decided to confirm the acquittal "for not having committed the fact".

The knot of Busco
's bite Simonetta's bite on the breast attributed to Busco was at first considered the sign that the man was at the crime scene and the pivot of the sentence. Now the Cassation notes that the thesis of the bite was one of the hypotheses - not the only one - and that there are two different passages - signs on Simonetta's body compatible with a bite and possible bite attributable to Busco - both "without scientific certainty ". Finally, the Supreme Court recalls that this unproven bite lacks the trace of the signs of the "opposing" dental arch and the circumstance makes "evident the danger of reaching abusive conclusions".
