Delitto Garlasco, no review of the trial presented by the Stasi lawyers
Share
March 19, 2021 The Supreme Court issued the verdict and rejected the appeal of the defense of Alberto Stasi for the review of the trial.
The accused was sentenced to 16 years in prison for killing his girlfriend Chiara Poggi in Garlasco on August 13, 2007.
The verdict was issued this evening by the First Criminal Section of the Supreme Court.
For the "stoats" there is no new evidence to reopen the case.
The defense of Stasi had presented the request for revision on the basis of new elements - among these, fingerprints on a soap dispenser, hair on the sink, and circumstances relating to a testimony - but the Court of Appeal of Brescia, with the order challenged by Stasi in the Supreme Court, had stated that they were not to be considered "new evidence" for the purposes of a review and that they did not affect the circumstantial elements underlying the conviction, which became final in December 2015.
Now we will have to wait for the filing of the sentence, in about a month, to know the reasons for the decision.
Stasi, had been acquitted in the first two levels of judgment (with an abbreviated procedure) and, after the annulment with postponement of the Cassation in 2013, sentenced on appeal-bis (sentence confirmed in the Supreme Court) - and is detained in the Milan Bollate prison.
