Garlasco Reinvestigation: Ris Bloodstain Report Filed Under Seal Points to a Single Assailant

The 300-page analysis remains secret in the Pavia case file, with its conclusions to be tested against ongoing DNA and medico-legal reviews.

Overview

  • The Ris di Cagliari deposited a 300-page bloodstain-pattern analysis with the Procura di Pavia, using drones and 3D reconstruction to re-map all blood traces from the 2007 crime scene.
  • Multiple outlets report the consultancy found no evidence of a second active participant, though prosecutors say early media summaries are not adherent to the sealed report and it has not been shared with the parties.
  • The BPA does not assign responsibility or identify the weapon, and a separate review by forensic pathologist Cristina Cattaneo will address injuries, weapon and whether multiple attackers remain possible.
  • DNA under Chiara Poggi’s fingernails is being reanalyzed by expert Denise Albani, with one profile disputed as attributable to Andrea Sempio and some newly examined samples deemed contamination.
  • The incidente probatorio continues with eight partial fingerprints recently photographed for potential comparison and procedural dates set for September 26 and October 24.
