" The defeated state ". A few hours after the sentence with which the judges of the Cassino Assizes acquitted the five defendants involved in the investigation for the murder of Serena Mollicone in 2001, the appeal resumes stronger because - as happened in the Cucchi case - someone in the 'Arma speak and "bring out the truth".
This request comes first of all from Maria Tuzi, daughter of Santino, the carabiniere who committed suicide 7 years after the crime. After the verdict of the judges , the woman screamed after Brigadier Francesco Suprano , acquitted of the accusation of aiding and abetting, asking him to tell the truth.
"It is also a defeat for the Italian State which has one of its key functions in justice, the disturbance remains because so many years after the tragic events the State has not been able to do it", comments the lawyer Dario De Santis coldly. Guglielmo Mollicone's lawyer, Serena's father who died in 2020. Also for this reason the lawyer adds: "Guglielmo's death has spared him this other disappointment but we will not resign ourselves until there is justice ".
The reasons for the ruling will be known in the autumn, around 15 October. The only certainty at the moment is that the judges have dropped the charges for Marco Mottola, for his father Franco, former chief of the Arce carabinieri, and for his wife Anna Maria, with the formula " for not having committed the crime ". The three were accused of complicity in murder, the two parents also of concealing a corpse.
For the other two defendants, Vincenzo Quatrale, at the time deputy marshal and accused of external concurrence in murder, and for the police officer Francesco Suprano who was challenged for aiding and abetting, the acquittal formula is " because the fact does not exist " .
Stefano Cucchi's sister Ilaria also intervened on the matter. For her, Serena is " ". And - he tells his family after his name and his tenacity have been invoked several times on social media in these hours - "to those who are looking for the truth about Serena's murder I say with all my heart: never give up and never stop never believe in justice even if the price you are paying will be very high, but you already know it. I do not know whether to wish you to lead my life but you cannot forget what has been done to your beautiful girl. We are all doomed. All of us ".
