Overview
- The Corte d'Assise of Bergamo found no proof of homicide in the death of Alice in 2021 and deemed Bortolotti non-imputable for Mattia's 2022 death due to total incapacity to understand and will.
- The court imposed a security measure of confinement in a Rems for at least ten years, with psychiatric evaluations scheduled every six months.
- Prosecutors had sought life imprisonment and six months of solitary confinement, alleging intentional suffocation motivated by intolerance of the infants' crying.
- Forensic findings diverged: Mattia's autopsy indicated acute respiratory failure from mechanical asphyxia, while Alice's exhumation yielded no definitive cause due to poor preservation.
- Psychiatric opinions conflicted during the trial, but the judges credited the court-ordered assessment, and written motivations are due within 90 days.
