Anguillara Disappearance Becomes Homicide Probe as Husband Is Investigated

Prosecutors named the husband a suspect after technical checks flagged inconsistencies, prompting intensive searches of the home, his worksites and Lake Bracciano.

Overview

  • Federica Torzullo, 41, was last seen on the night of January 8 entering her home; cameras have not captured her leaving.
  • Prosecutors in Civitavecchia opened a homicide case and placed her husband, Claudio Carlomagno, under investigation, seizing his car, phone, the family house and parts of his excavation business.
  • Investigators report discrepancies between his account and GPS and cell-site data, and employees say he arrived about 45 minutes late to work on January 9.
  • Forensic teams used luminol in the house, flew drones over a local dump and conducted targeted digs at company sites, while Carabinieri and firefighters have searched Lake Bracciano with no confirmed findings.
  • Authorities have asked the public for tips through Penelope Lazio as relatives confirm the couple were in separation proceedings with a custody hearing expected soon; the phone linked to Torzullo is off.
