Milan, Nov. 11 (LaPresse) – Only the fingerprints of Marco Poggi and a carabiniere were found on the garage shutter and the front door of the house in Via Pascoli, Garlasco, where Chiara Poggi was murdered on August 13, 2007. Meanwhile, the breakfast remains (a cereal bag) from the morning of the crime contained only the victim’s fingerprints — four identified as hers and two others not attributable. These are the results of the evidentiary hearing in the homicide investigation concerning Andrea Sempio, as communicated in recent hours to the defense consultants by Giovanni Di Censo, the new fingerprint expert from the Forensic Police in Turin appointed by investigating judge Daniela Garlaschelli. According to sources quoted by LaPresse, one of Marco Poggi’s fingerprints was found on the outer front of the garage shutter, while that of a law enforcement officer was on the outer panel of the front door. The fingerprint expert, tasked with attributing the prints photographed on dozens of adhesive acetate strips used by the RIS forensic unit in 2007, also identified three prints on a blue cellophane garbage bag: none of these belong to Andrea Sempio or Alberto Stasi, while one largely matches that of Chiara Poggi but cannot be fully attributed to her. This effectively concludes the evidentiary phase from a fingerprinting standpoint, while the DNA analysis section of the investigation remains open.
