The Carabinieri report on the murder of Simonetta Cesaroni, the young woman found dead in an office on Via Poma in 1990, points the finger at Mario Vanacore, son of the building's doorman.

The military reconstructed every single step of the day of the murder, but the Rome prosecutor's office requested that the case be closed, deeming the evidence against Vanacore insufficient.

According to the Carabinieri's theory, on the afternoon of August 7, 1990, Vanacore entered the offices on Via Poma, where Simonetta Cesaroni worked as a secretary. Upon finding herself in front of the girl, he attempted to rape her, but she pushed him away and injured him. At that point, he beat and killed her, stabbing her 29 times.

Vanacore's responsibilities would have been covered up by his own parents, Pietrino and Giuseppa De Luca. The two would have lied to the investigators during the investigation phase, also involving Simonetta Cesaroni's employer, Salvatore Volponi.

The Rome prosecutor's office, however, deemed the evidence against Vanacore insufficient. Specifically, the magistrates emphasized that the hypothesis of attempted sexual assault was not supported by concrete evidence.

Furthermore, they noted that the statements of witnesses who saw Vanacore near the offices on Via Poma on the afternoon of the murder are contradictory.

The request for archiving has been sent to the investigating judge of Rome, who will have to decide in the next few days.
