Rome, 12 Aug. (LaPresse) – “The confession we have learnt of is shocking and confirms this is a delirious farce of madness, should the real motive indeed be as reported. This is also because Sigfrido Ranucci has had round-the-clock security since 2021, a measure confirmed over the years due to the seriousness of the death threats he has received, which have been rigorously assessed by the Ministry of the Interior. Furthermore, the popularity of the presenter of *Report* has long been extremely high both in Italy and abroad, as evidenced by the ongoing media attention surrounding these events. So if that is the motive, it falls somewhere between the pointless and the reassuring, certainly a far cry from far more serious and grave hypotheses. Obviously, a confession is one thing; assessing its credibility is quite another.” So stated Roberto De Vita, Sigfrido Ranucci’s lawyer, in a statement commenting on the outcome of Valter Lavitola’s preliminary hearing before the public prosecutor and the investigating judge.
