Cucchi, the appeal of the carabiniere Casamassima: «Ilaria, remember us»

Bonagalvagno's decision is linked to the initiative of Stefano Cucchi's family lawyers who had asked the monocratic judge to abstain after learning from open sources that Bonagalvagno had organized conferences attended by senior officers of the Arma. The new appointed monocratic judge is Giulia Cavallone.

The 8 defendants are all carabinieri, including senior officers, accused in various capacities and depending on the positions of forgery, aiding, abusing a complaint and calumny. This is the general Alessandro Casarsa, at the time of the facts commander of the Rome Group, and seven other carabinieri, including Lorenzo Sabatino, then commander of the operational department of the carabinieri of Rome, Francesco Cavallo, at the time of the facts lieutenant colonel and head of the Rome Group command; Luciano Soligo, at the time of the events, major of the weapon and commander of the Rome Montesacro company; Massimiliano Colombo Labriola, at the time of the facts commander of the Tor Sapienza station; Francesco Di Sano, at the time in service at the Tor Sapienza station; Tiziano Testarmata, commander of the fourth section of the investigative unit of the Carabinieri and the carabiniere Luca De Cianni, accused of forgery and slander.

Ilaria Cucchi and lawyer Fabio Anselmo were not present at the trial. At this time the last hearing is taking place in the trial concerning the death of Stefano Cucchi, who sees five carabinieri, including three for unintentional murder, whose sentence is scheduled for Thursday, November 14th.

The Ministry of Justice has filed a motion to set up a civil party in the misleading process. Among the civil parties already established, the presidency of the Council of Ministers and the ARMA.
