Anni '70. La violenza politica Episode 6

Cronache Criminali tackles the most controversial decade in the history of the Republic, the 1970s. Giancarlo De Cataldo recounts a cross-section of political violence that saw the right and left clash on the streets of Italy's major cities. Through the reconstruction of two murders, that of Sergio Ramelli, which occurred in Milan in 1975, and that of Walter Rossi in Rome in 1977, the dark plots and degeneration of some extra-parliamentary fringes are recounted, as well as the symbolic moments that changed the course of events, such as the expulsion of trade unionist Luciano Lama from Sapienza, the tragic demonstration in Bologna in March 1977 and the large and violent demonstration the following day that turned the capital upside down.

Christa Wanninger Episode 7

It is May 2, 1963, when in Rome at Via Emilia 81, near the famous Via Veneto, heart of the Dolce Vita, Christa Wanninger, a young 23-year-old German model, is brutally killed with 7 stab wounds. Thus begins an incredible judicial case that will drag on for more than thirty years until the verdict of the Supreme Court of Cassation in 1988. After months of investigation that lead nowhere, it will be the phone call of a self-styled informant that will reopen the case. The author of the call is a certain Guido Pierri, immediately arrested as a possible perpetrator of the murder, which he minutely described in his diaries. Acquitted, he is investigated again after many years.

La banda della uno bianca Episode 8

From a virtual studio, Giancarlo De Cataldo reconstructs the incredible story of the "White Uno", the gang that spread terror between Emilia-Romagna and Marche for seven long years, with robberies at toll booths, banks, armored vans, ambushes on citizens and law enforcement. Between 1987 and 1994, the criminal organization carried out about a hundred attacks, killing 24 people and wounding over a hundred: a real war.

Il massacro del Circeo Episode 9

From a virtual studio, Giancarlo De Cataldo tackles a crime that has deeply troubled consciences, not only for the ferocity of the torturers, not only because the culprits were unsuspecting "boys from good families", or for that shot engraved in the collective memory that portrays Donatella Colasanti, swollen and covered in blood, re-emerging from the trunk of a 127 next to the lifeless body of Rosaria Lopez, in the Trieste neighborhood of Rome. The Circeo massacre is the judicial case that has changed the way of perceiving men's violence against women and the way of experiencing justice in cases of violence: next to the victim, who has become a symbol in spite of herself, the feminist movement invades the courtrooms, in a process that becomes socially relevant. The voice of women demands justice in a way that can no longer be ignored, both by judges and by society.

La clinica degli orrori Episode 10

The host Giancarlo De Cataldo will recall the investigations that led to the imprisonment of Dr. Brega Massone, the surgeon convicted of manslaughter for the death of four patients, fraud against the national health service, and approximately 120 cases of injury, between the first and second proceedings. On June 9, 2008, thirteen doctors and the legal representative of the Santa Rita clinic were arrested in Milan. This was explosive news for the city and for Italy as a whole, because the charges against them were very serious: fraud against the State, ideological falsehood, serious injury and murder. But also because it undermines a principle guaranteed by our Constitution, such as that of health, because it betrays the ethics and deontology of the medical art, and above all because it casts heavy shadows on the relationship of trust between doctor and patient.
