Overview

  • The Milan Appeal Court confirmed Impagnatiello’s life sentence and removed the premeditation aggravator on appeal
  • Judges ruled he failed to demonstrate the genuine critical reappraisal of his motives required by Article 42 of the Cartabia reform
  • Deputy Attorney General Maria Pia Gualtieri and Tramontano’s parents opposed the application, citing an irrevocable refusal to engage in mediation
  • Impagnatiello was convicted for the May 27, 2023 killing in Senago of his seven-month-pregnant partner, Giulia Tramontano
  • Italy’s Cartabia reform permits mediated dialogue only when both offender reflection and victim-family consent are firmly established
