Alessandro Albertoni, one of the two definitively sentenced last year to 3 years in prison for attempted gang rape as part of the investigation into the death of the Genoese student Martina Rossi, is one of the winners in Arezzo with the merits of Coni, in 'as part of a ceremony scheduled for 10 September at the headquarters of the Province, for previous sporting merits as an Italian motocross champion.
Amazement at the recognition was expressed by the parents of the deceased young woman, who died at 20 in 2011 after falling from the balcony of a hotel in Palma de Mallorca.
"This surprised Bruno and Franca, Martina's parents - explains the lawyer Luca Fanfani, the lawyer who assisted them as a civil party in the trial -, moreover Albertoni still has a penalty yet to be fully expiated and no sign of resipiscence in as many as 11 years. We wonder how one can receive merit from none other than CONI for past sporting merits.
All in the presence of the highest local authorities in the hall of the Great of the Province. Honestly, we have no words "he concluded.
From what was explained by the provincial Coni, the recognition was awarded in 2020 while the ceremony was postponed to today following the pandemic.
