New Forensics Shift Garlasco Probe Toward Sempio, Undercutting Stasi Motive

Fresh forensic work undermines the Stasi motive by documenting Chiara Poggi’s last viewing of a video featuring Andrea Sempio.

Overview

  • Digital experts report Chiara Poggi used Alberto Stasi’s computer on August 12, 2007, from 22:09 to 22:14 without opening the hidden pornographic files long cited in the quarrel narrative.
  • The victim’s PC was last used on August 10, 2007, when she viewed a video featuring Andrea Sempio, according to the perizia, and the machine was not turned on again before the killing.
  • Prosecutors in Pavia have placed Sempio under investigation on suspicion of voluntary homicide as they reexamine electronic traces and related timelines.
  • Investigators are described as weighing several indicia linked to Sempio, including a fingerprint known as ‘33,’ DNA reportedly found under the victim’s nails, and a footprint on the villa floor.
  • The forensic record also notes accidental damage to the victim’s computer by Carabinieri that limited data recovery, and sources say new names could be added as photos and videos circulating online are analyzed.
