Femminicidio Scialdone, in appello bis ergastolo per l'ex

The Court of Assizes of Appeal in Rome sentenced Costantino Bonaiuti to life imprisonment for the femicide of his ex-partner, lawyer Martina Scialdone, who was shot dead on January 13, 2023. The judges accepted the prosecutor's request, recognizing the aggravating factor of premeditation as urged by the Supreme Court, which had previously referred the case back after a first appeal process that reduced Bonaiuti's sentence to 24 years and 8 months.
