Overview
- Leonardo Apache La Russa offered €25,000 to the 24-year-old woman linked to the explicit video, which she refused as not satisfactory.
- Prosecutors called the amount substantial but said it is not sufficient without a restorative justice path.
- La Russa’s defense will deposit the check to formalize the offer as the court weighs whether to admit him to a restorative program.
- The sexual-violence probe was previously archived, but charges for illicit dissemination of sexually explicit material related to May 2023 remain.
- Co-defendant DJ Tommaso Gilardoni chose an abbreviated trial, with prosecutors seeking a two-year sentence and a ruling expected on December 17.
