Ten years later, there is a turning point in the case of the murder of Giuliano Gilardi, the 60-year-old retiree stabbed to death in his home in Saint-Christophe, in the Aosta Valley, on December 27, 2011.
The chewing-gum found in the victim's bed was fundamental, above which the DNA of one of the four people under investigation was found after the reopening of the murder file.
Geneticist Sarah Gino has certified compatibility with the genetic profile of Salvatore Agostino, a 61-year-old construction worker known to the police who has always declared himself a stranger to the crime.
THE PROBATORY INCIDENT - The assignment was conferred on her last November 18 by the investigating judge of Aosta in the context of the probative incident requested by the prosecutor: the evidence will be officially formed during the hearing scheduled for next February 3, which can then be used in a possible trial.
The comparison with Augustine's DNA was the only one missing: it had been analyzed, however, giving a negative result in the days following the crime together with that of the other three current suspects for aggravated murder in competition. I am Gilardi's ex-partner, Cinzia Guizzetti (formerly the main suspect of the crime in the investigation that was later filed), the latter's ex-husband, Armando Mammoliti, a construction craftsman, and Domenico Mammoliti, 35, like Agostino construction worker and name known to the police.
The investigations continue but the report, in the meantime, would attest to the presence of Agostino in Gilardi's house and could shed light on a ten-year-long mystery.
