Not only the famous “footprint number 33” attributed to Andrea Sempio. On the walls of the staircase at the bottom of which Chiara Poggi’s body was found, there were six other “palm” traces, never identified, that the experts of the Pavia Prosecutor’s Office have reanalyzed as part of the new investigation into the Garlasco crime.
Fingerprints that remain unknown , to which experts have not been able to give an identity. But they have all been considered "comparable", and with a work of "exclusion" it was concluded that they are not Sempio's, nor Stasi's, nor the victim's family members, including the Cappa sisters, nor Marco Poggi's friends, Alessandro Biasibetti, Roberto Freddi and Mattia Capra .
This is another element that emerges from the consultancy, drawn up by Gianpaolo Iuliano and Nicola Caprioli, respectively an expert of the Carabinieri RIS and a forensic fingerprinter. The two consultants were not even able to attribute a name to the "digital" traces found on the external and internal surface of the entrance door of the villa, five in total still to be identified.
These too were considered "comparable", but not useful for an identification and which led to excluding, in any case, "matches" with Sempio, Stasi and all the other names considered, from Stefania Cappa to Marco Poggi's friends.
Among these, the one that investigators are focusing their attention on the most, number 10, found on the "internal surface of the entrance door on the mobile door". The imprint of a presumed "dirty hand", on which at the time "no biological investigation" was done to ascertain whether there was blood. A imprint that, the Carabinieri wrote in a 2020 report, if it had been ascertained that it was stained with blood, it could certainly be said that it belonged to the attacker who was leaving the crime scene .
Genetic tests on this, however, will be carried out within the scope of the major evidentiary incident, through the "parastickers" of the fingerprint traces recovered by the Carabinieri of the Investigative Unit of Milan.
Of the six palm prints still unknown, three had been found, like the 33rd, on the "right wall of the stairs where the body was found". Two more on the left wall and another on the "upper wall of the stairs".
Experts explain that a fragment of a fingerprint or palm print is comparable when, «even if it does not have all the characteristics necessary to reach a full identification, it can still be used in a dactyloscopic comparison with the prints of known subjects in order to be able to exclude with certainty that the comparable print belongs to the subject himself» .
Stasi's lawyer
"There should be no double standards when it comes to fingerprints," says Giada Bocellari, Alberto Stasi's lawyer with Antonio De Rensis , referring to fingerprint 33 attributed to Sempio.
"I only remember - the lawyer states - that the same sentence of Stasi considers a fingerprint on a soap dispenser, in the bathroom that he also used to wash his hands the night before, to be a serious indication of guilt . You can't use double standards: Stasi's fingerprint on the soap dispenser is a very serious indication of guilt, Andrea Sempio's palm print on the stairs where Chiara Poggi was thrown, also in light of the presence of DNA on two fingers of two different hands of the victim, is a 'well, he frequented the house' ".
Messages from Paola Cappa
Instead, the messages from Paola Cappa, released by Francesco Chiesa Soprani and partly revealed to “Le Iene”, will be delivered to the Prosecutor's Office .
Solange Marchignoli, the lawyer of the former entertainment manager and friend of Paola Cappa, told Storie Italiane: «All people in good faith are trying to contribute to understanding the truth. I have contacted an agency to transfer the messages received from my client to a telematic medium and thus be able to deliver them to the Prosecutor's Office, unless the public prosecutor calls first».
"The messages - he added - are 186 and will be officially delivered, then if they can contribute to the investigation, fine, otherwise nothing . It will not be a quote that will change the investigation. The public prosecutors are very prepared and serious, they do not let themselves be misled by a quote that appears in a newspaper. Maybe the public opinion responds with its gut, but here we are talking about serious things".
