Il Tempo: La madre di Stasi rompe il silenzio: "A questo punto ci credo". E su Sempio...

La nuova inchiesta sul delitto di Chiara Poggi, a Garlasco il 13 agosto 2007, contiene "elementi forti" che consolidano la speranza di vedere presto il figlio libeo e scagionato, seppur dopo anni di detenzione. Elisabetta Ligabò, la madre di Alberto Stasi, parla  in una intervista a Repubblica e racconta l'ultimo anno e in particolare gli ultimi giorni vissuti "con trepidazione, in attesa di riuscire a venire fuori da questa storia. E con fiducia in questi nuovi inquirenti e investigatori".  Quanto emerso dall'indagine della Procura di Pavia su Andrea Sempio dà speranza a Ligabò: "Sono elementi forti. Sì, a questo punto, certo che ci credo! Spero fin dal 2007. Non potevo accettare quello che stava succedendo ad Alberto. L'ho sempre detto: se solo avessimo avuto, sia io sia mio marito, il minimo sospetto che fosse stato lui, io personalmente lo avrei preso e portato dai carabinieri. Certo, dopo la condanna del 2014 la fiducia nella giustizia è venuta a traballare. Ma questa Procura ha lavorato in modo eccellente".

La madre di Alberto Stasi nota un clima diverso nell'opinione pubblica, e una crescente solidarietà. Parla del rapporto con il figlio: "Ci siamo dati forza l'uno con l'altra. Forse Alberto ne ha data più a me, anche se non era fisicamente presente. Piano piano siamo arrivati ad oggi, con la possibilità di vederci e di tornare a frequentarci di più. Vuol dire molto. Ma no, il rapporto non è cambiato, e lui è sempre lo stesso. Certo che la vita ci ha messo a dura prova".

Afferma che "Chiara è sempre nei miei pensieri e nelle mie preghiere. E so che lei da lassù ci sta proteggendo" ma alla famiglia Poggi non intende mandare messaggi. Non si rivolge direttamente neanche ai Sempio. La madre dell'indagato ha scritto a Stasi in carcere lettere durissime. Parla degli avvocati Giada Bocellari  e Antonio De Rensis: "Per noi sono diventati quasi parenti. In particolare, a Giada devo tanta gratitudine". Elogia i magistrati e gli inquirenti di Pavia e annuncia che quando il figlio, da innocente o dopo aver scontato la pena, uscirà  andranno insieme sulla tomba di Chiara.

Mom Stasi breaks the silence: “At this point I believe it.” And about Sempio…

The new investigation into the murder of Chiara Poggi, in Garlasco on August 13, 2007, contains “strong evidence” that consolidates the hope of seeing her son, Leo, and clearing his name soon, despite years of imprisonment. Elisabetta Ligabò, the mother of Alberto Stasi, speaks in an interview with Repubblica and recounts the last year and particularly the last days spent “with trepidation, waiting to get out of this story. And with confidence in these new investigators and investigators.” The findings of the investigation by the Pavia Prosecutor’s Office regarding Andrea Sempio gives Ligabò hope: “These are strong elements. Yes, at this point, I certainly believe in it! I’ve hoped since 2007. I couldn’t accept what was happening to Alberto. I’ve always said: if only we had, both my husband and I, the slightest suspicion that he was involved, I would have personally taken him and brought him to the Carabinieri. Of course, after the 2014 conviction, trust in the justice system has been shaken. But this Prosecutor’s Office has worked excellently.”

The mother of Alberto Stasi notes a different atmosphere in public opinion and increasing solidarity. She talks about her relationship with her son: “We drew strength from each other. Perhaps Alberto gave more strength to me, even though he wasn’t physically present. Slowly, we arrived at today, with the possibility of seeing each other and returning to visit more often. That means a lot. But no, the relationship hasn’t changed, and he’s always the same. Of course, life has put us through a hard time.”

She asserts that “Chiara is always in my thoughts and prayers, and I know that she is protecting us from above” but she does not intend to send messages to the Poggi family. She does not even address the Sempio directly. The mother of the suspect has written to Stasi in prison extremely harsh letters. She speaks about the lawyers Giada Boccellari and Antonio De Rensis: “For us, they have become almost family members. In particular, I owe a great deal of gratitude to Giada.” She praises the magistrates and investigators of Pavia and announces that when her son, innocent or after serving his sentence, is released, they will go together to Chiara’s grave.
