Overview
- Turetta had already withdrawn his own appeal in a handwritten letter accepting the life term and expressing remorse.
- With both sides renouncing appeals, there will be no second-instance trial and the planned November 14 hearing is canceled.
- The Venice assize court on December 3, 2024 convicted Turetta of voluntary homicide with premeditation and an affective relationship aggravator, as well as kidnapping and concealment of a corpse.
- Prosecutors had initially sought on appeal to add the aggravating circumstances of cruelty and stalking that the trial court excluded.
- Lawyers for the Cecchettin family called the closure coherent and urged channeling their loss into awareness and prevention of gender-based violence.
