Overview

  • Carabinieri conducted early-morning raids at the homes of Andrea Sempio, his parents, and two friends, seizing electronic devices as part of the reopened investigation into Chiara Poggi's 2007 murder.
  • A canal in Tromello is being searched for the alleged murder weapon, a fireplace poker reportedly linked to the Poggi household, following a witness account.
  • New DNA analysis has identified genetic material under Chiara Poggi's nails that is incompatible with convicted ex-boyfriend Alberto Stasi but potentially linked to Sempio.
  • Two childhood friends of Sempio, Mattia Capra and Roberto Freddi, are also under scrutiny, with investigators examining their phone records and DNA for possible connections.
  • Chiara Poggi’s parents continue to assert that Alberto Stasi, convicted in 2015 and currently in semilibertà, is the sole perpetrator, rejecting suspicions against Sempio.
