Alfonso Signorini investigated for sexual assault and extortion. Him: “Accusations by thugs”

The Milan Prosecutor’s Office has opened an investigation against the journalist and TV presenter Alfonso Signorini. An act due following the complaint presented in recent days by the former Big Brother contestant, Antonio Medugno. In the complaint filed last December 24, and which ended up on the desk of prosecutor Letizia Mannella, head of the Fifth Department which deals with protecting vulnerable groups, Medugno, assisted by lawyers Cristina Morrone and Giuseppe Pipicella, asked to proceed for sexual violence and extortion, crimes now included in the file.

Prosecutor Mannella also coordinates with her colleague Alessandro Gobbis the investigation into Fabrizio Corona, investigated for revenge porn based on Signorini’s complaint. A complaint presented after that in recent weeks the “king of the paparazzi”, through his ‘Falsissimò’ format, essentially accused the journalist and TV presenter of having carried out a “system” of sexual favors requested – this is the version of the former photographic agent – from some participants of Big Brother or from those who aspired to enter the now famous “house”. It was precisely this file that made it possible to seize photos, videos and chats and led Medugno to come forward and report Signorini. Medugno’s complaint may not be the only complaint against the journalist. In these hours, the former GF Vip Gianluca Costantino, assisted by the lawyer Leonardo D’Erasmo, is also releasing his reservation regarding a similar legal action.

“I heard Alfonso Signorni, he is calm, absolutely calm.” The lawyer Domenico Aiello, lawyer of Alfonso Signorini, investigated by the Milan prosecutor’s office on charges of sexual violence and extortion, tells LaPresse. “I spoke to him for several hours – he states -. Signorini would not be capable of using violence even against a mosquito in the summer”.

“We are at the complete disposal of the Prosecutor’s Office”, he underlines. “These are unreal and stupid accusations, just as the authors of the complaint are stupid. We have zero concerns about this complaint, there is no real basis.”
