Death threats in Casellati, the authors identified

The perpetrators of the death threats addressed to the President of the Senate Maria Elisabetta Alberti Casellati, published on Facebook and Twitter last May, have been identified by the Carabinieri of the Provincial Command of Rome. In particular, the soldiers of the Telematic Investigations Section of the Rome Investigative Unit, coordinated by the Prosecutor’s Office which had opened a file for the crime of aggravated threats, traced back to the IP addresses from which the threats originated and identified the authors: a 62 year old from the province of Teramo and a 42 year old from the province of Verona, both unemployed and with small criminal records, but not belonging to any extremist fringe. They were subjected to house searches during which cell phones likely used to send threatening messages to the second state office were seized.
