New investigations into the crime of Garlasco rewrite the crime scene: Chiara Poggi would have tried to call help before being killed. On the fixed phone, a sketch of blood forgotten by the killer. And in the victim’s mouth, an “unknown” DNA that could lead to a second attacker. The investigators now dig in the past of Andrea Semve, between old friends and a disturbing suicide.
Eighteen years after the murder of Chiara Poggi, The crime scene returns to speak. And it does so differently from the provisions of the sentences that have definitively condemned Alberto Stasi. In the new investigation coordinated by the Pavia Prosecutor’s Office, led by Fabio Napoleone, and by the carabinieri of the Milan investigative nucleus, the reconstruction changes form: Chiara would not have been surprised by someone he trusted, but would have fought. And he would try to ask for help.
In support of this hypothesis there is a detail so far underestimated: the landline of the house in via Pascoli. On that device, found in place on a cabinet, there are several sketches of bloodcompatible with those left by the attack of the attacker. But above all there is a drop under the handsetwith an19 degrees angletoo wide to be the result of a simple blood passage in the crack between the handset and the appliance. The new hypothesis is clear: Chiara was trying to call to ask for helpand at that moment it was attacked.
According to the investigators, the killer may have I put the handset back in placewithout noticing the drop of blood. A detail that, if confirmed, radically changes the dynamics of the crime. No longer a sudden aggression, but a violent action on a victim conscious, reactive, frightened.
The DNA under the nails and in the mouth of Chiara
Then there is another element that prompted investigators to reconsider the scene: The DNA found under the nails of Chiaraalready attributed to Andrea Semplio and a second man never identified. Today, thanks to new analyzes, an additional genetic track has emerged: a “Unknown 3”found in the oral buffer taken from the victim’s mouth.
It is a full profilewith 22 genetic markersThat does not correspond to any of the DNA present in the investigators databases. If the hypothesis of contamination by technicians or investigators will be definitively excluded, this discovery could represent A crucial turning point: Chiara may have bite his attackerin an extreme attempt to defend yourself.
The amount of genetic material found is “conspicuous”, according to investigative sources, so as to hypothesize a direct and violent contact, perhaps when someone tried to Tappar her mouth to silence her. The attempt to escape to the front door, the possibility of a bite, the uselessness of the attempt to use the phone: pieces of a scene that takes shape, finally more coherent also with The traces of blood on the stairsclose to the last steps, where Chiara was still hit.
Two weapons, more attackers
The new hypothesized dynamic does not exclude the possibility that there were Two people involvedeven if the investigators underline that it is not a necessary hypothesis. However, already at the time of the first medical-legal investigations, the use of Two different weapons: one sharp, the other heavy. Elements remained in the background during the processes, but which now come back central.
There is no mention of imaginative theories – such as those on Satanists or Sicari – who have been circulating on the web for some time. To lead the prosecutor are Scientific, genetic, forensic data. And the question becomes inevitable: Who is “unknown 3”?
The new track: who is Michele Bertani, the suicidal friend of Semplio
The genetic analyzes carried out so far have Excluding the match with all the members of Andrea Semplio’s “Historical” Companyor the friends with whom he spent the afternoons playing at the PlayStation, including Mattia Capra, Alessandro Biasibetti and Roberto Freddialso close to Chiara’s brother, Marco Poggi. None of them have ever been formally investigated, neither in 2007 nor today. However, at dawn on 14 May, the capra and cold houses were searched looking for any digital or documentary elements useful for the investigation.
The carabinieri are now trying to map a possible “Parallel lap” of knowledge of semium. From this group the identity of the mysterious “unknown 3” could emerge.
A name, in particular, has returned to the center of attention: Michele Bertanithe intimate friend of Semplio, who died suicide in 2017. His name had already emerged years ago as part of the investigations linked to the “dreams” of the lawyer Massimo Lovati, a defender of Semplio, and an alleged connection with the scandal of the Sanctuary of the Bozzola.
Today the investigators are trying to obtain A Bertani DNA champion from his family members. If the finds taken are not sufficient, There is no re -oxonation of the body. To throw further restlessness on this figure, a phrase reported by different journalistic sources and attributed to Bertani before suicide: “I did so bad things that nobody can imagine“.
The Prosecutor underlines that this is not a procedural review or an investigation into those who investigated 2007. It is rather a technical-scientific rereading of the crime scene, in light of advanced technologies and methods, in collaboration with the Rim. New consultations on Blood analysis (BPA), footprints, genetic profiles And environmental reconstructions are still ongoing.
