November 26, 2010 Yara Gambirasio he is only 13 years old. The young woman left her house to go to the gym without ever returning. The 13-year-old, tall, slim, with brown eyes and hair and small stars on her teeth depicted in photos where she is always smiling, is a rhythmic gymnast, sociable and carefree, like all girls her age, very close to her family.

That night in November the weather was already a bit cold in the Bergamo area. His parents immediately panicked when there was no news from him. Yara’s disappearance became news in a short time. However, despite numerous searches and the deployment of troops in the area, the little girl appears to have been swallowed by the earth for three months. That February 26 even colder. A remote-controlled aircraft enthusiast is on the ground at Chignolo d’Isola, to test his model. The damage to one of them, which suddenly fell to the grass, made him look further ahead. The man caught a glimpse of what looked like a pile of crumpled clothes. He approached and in an instant the place belonged to all of Italy horror field. There, lying on the grass, was a body.

The man immediately called for help. And within seconds the camp was surrounded by police, by medical examiners, by everyone who, frightened, approached the place. My thoughts turned to Yara and confirmation soon arrived. The clothes were what the 13-year-old was wearing the day he disappeared. The rest will soon be understood. On Yara’s body, as the teacher highlighted Cristina Cattaneo who performed the autopsy, there were several signs of stab wounds but it was not because of the wounds that he died. Yara, after being attacked, it was left therelying on the grass. He still held that grass in his hand, which he held onto until the very last moment. He died of hunger and cold, with no possibility of escape, with his eyes wide open to a sky that did not protect him.

Doctor Cattaneo then made an important discovery. On the young woman’s body something appeared lime. It is as if the body has come into contact with the material or with concrete. Carrying out a similar experiment on clothing, it turned out to be small metal balls, a classic in the construction environment. But who is the killer? Some answers come thanksDNA test entrusted to Professor Emiliano Giardina. In fact, male DNA was also found on the victim’s underwear, apart from Yara. Thanks to this DNA, comparisons are made with a very long list of people, something that has never been seen before, until a match is found between the DNA and a subject, such as Giuseppe Gueronibut not Ignoto1: the man died in 1999.

Given the corresponding haplotype Y, shared by all male subjects of a particular family, it is possible to compare that DNA with the DNA of Massimo Giuseppe Bossettibricklayer from Mapello, with no criminal record and illegitimate son of Guerinoni. This discovery was also a surprise to him. But the man said weirder for crime.

Fifteen years after Yara’s death, Massimo Bossetti is serving a life sentence. He pleaded not guilty. At all stages of the trial, the defense always emphasized that DNA samples had been analyzed without guarantees for defense. It is not clear how investigators could provide assurances to an unknown person, until the correspondence is verified… In any case, Bossetti’s defense team in recent days has obtained genetic material that has been requested for 8 years. On the defense table are 9,000 DNA samples that turned up during the investigation.

The defense, while underlining that the material is partial, will start working on it to uncover key pieces of evidence. For the judge, the murder occurred because of the rejection of sexual advances, as was also shown by the wounds on the victim’s body, a violence committed by Yara while she was still alive and which became the basis for the confession of aggravating circumstances. cruelty. A crime, committed by Yara, one of them “unprecedented gravity” and which is still controversial.

An interest in a “13-year-old redhead” was discovered in PC Bossetti. Even after the crime, thirteen days before his arrest, which occurred in May 2014, the man was home alone, his children were at school, his wife was out and he tried to: “little girl”. It is better if they are redheads or “unmarried teenagers”. A true obsession. But he doesn’t know how his DNA got into Yara’s underwear, which was still small.
