"For us, justice has given us a culprit, for us it is Stasi. If justice gives us a new culprit, we will take note of it." These are the words of the parents of Chiara Poggi, the 26-year-old killed in the family villa in Garlasco on 13 August 2007. Giuseppe and Rita Poggi spoke to Verissimo, on Canale 5, after the conclusion of the new investigation by the Pavia Prosecutor's Office which sees Andrea Sempio under investigation. For the murder - after the first investigation - Alberto Stasi, the victim's boyfriend at the time, was definitively sentenced to 16 years in prison and is now evaluating with his lawyers a request to review the sentence.

The words of Chiara Poggi's parents

During the interview, Giuseppe Poggi explained: "We have had 5 trials, 8 years of trials, and they are long. Justice has given us a culprit, for us it is Stasi. It's not that we are stubborn. If justice gives us a new culprit, we will take note", but "it's not that because a prosecutor carries out an investigation, then the light bulb goes on and one changes his mind". Rita Poggi then added: "For us it is that. Until justice gives us another name. If it gives another, we will take note of it." And again: "For us, the sentence of the Italian State applies. When the Italian justice system says something else, we will take note of it."
