Overview
- Judge‑appointed geneticist Denise Albani obtained the raw DNA from under Chiara Poggi’s nails, with the strings described by sources as providing usable quantification.
- Comparative testing is now considered possible, including a reported potential check against Andrea Sempio’s profile, though no official authorization has been announced.
- The judge granted a 70‑day extension of the incidente probatorio, scheduling the next hearing for December 18.
- The Brescia prosecutor ordered searches at nine homes, including those of six members of Sempio’s family, former prosecutor Mario Venditti and two carabinieri.
- The court again left out the disputed ‘impronta 33’ because the physical sample no longer exists, and appointed Giovanni Di Censo to assess fingerprint fragments on cereal and garbage bags if usable.
