Overview

• Judge Francesco Pipicelli of the Tribunale civile di Milano issued a first‑instance ruling on August 27, revoking the post‑crime transfer of the Volkswagen T‑Roc.
• The court determined the August 2023 sale to the killer’s sister‑in‑law for €10,000—despite an estimated €20,000 value—was intended to reduce the debtor’s assets after the May 2023 murder.
• The sister‑in‑law must reimburse the family roughly €20,000, plus about €5,000 in legal costs, converting the voided transaction into a payable sum.
• An October 2024 theft report of the T‑Roc drew no payout from the insurer, which cited contradictory and anomalous elements that undercut the claimed dynamics.
• Impagnatiello’s life sentence and provisional awards remain on record—€200,000 for each parent and €150,000 for the siblings—yet he is effectively asset‑poor, leaving recovery to the Interior Ministry victims’ fund and successful asset reversals.
