Threats, harassment, and insults have been reported in Alghero since 2021. A twenty-eight-year-old man committed these acts against his parents and sister, prompting a complaint and trial for mistreatment of family members and cohabitants, as well as a charge of resisting a public official for having shouted at the Carabinieri officers who intervened during an argument in 2021.

Among the charges is that he made death threats to his family, using phrases such as "Get out of this house, or I'll kill you all." He also made several insults toward his mother, whom he allegedly blamed for his alcohol and drug addictions.

During the investigation, the charges against the man were less serious, having spent several days in prison, and both his parents and sister withdrew their complaints. Meanwhile, the now 33-year-old had managed to kick his drug habit and finally found work.

All of these elements were emphasized by defense attorney Gaetano Paoletti, who described his client's change of heart in court. Prosecutor Antonio Piras, however, argued for the defendant's responsibility, requesting a sentence of two years and one month in prison.

In recent days, in the Sassari courthouse, Judge Paolo Bulla ordered the 33-year-old to be dismissed because the threat charge, thus reclassified from mistreatment, had been extinguished due to the dismissal of the complaint. He also decreed his acquittal due to the particularly trivial nature of the charges relating to resisting a public official.
