Interrogation of Stefano Argentino in Sara Campanella Case Scheduled

Interrogation of Stefano Argentino in Sara Campanella Case Scheduled

Stefano Argentino, a 27-year-old student accused of murdering Sara Campanella, is set for interrogation as his lawyer withdraws from the case.
On the morning of April 2, 2025, at approximately 10:30 AM, Stefano Argentino is scheduled to be interrogated at the Gazzi prison in Messina regarding the murder of 22-year-old Sara Campanella.

Argentino was arrested on Monday night by carabinieri at his residence in Noto, Siracusa, on allegations that he fatally stabbed Campanella on the street.

Raffaele Leone, the lawyer initially contacted by Argentino's family to defend him, has announced his withdrawal from the case, citing a "personal choice." Although Leone will attend the hearing for the validation of the arrest and the interrogation, Argentino must now seek new legal representation.

Leone received notifications regarding the interrogation and the autopsy, which Argentino's family plans to observe with their own experts.

Leone commented on his unfamiliarity with Argentino, stating, "I have never met him and know very little about him.

I only know that he returned home yesterday, and in the middle of the night, his parents found carabinieri in their apartment." He expressed shock regarding the accusations against Argentino and emphasized the family’s distress.

The community in Noto has reacted with disbelief to the allegations against a local resident.

An acquaintance of the Argentino family described them as a good family, emphasizing the unexpected nature of the incident.

The father of the accused works in construction, and the mother occasionally engages in small jobs.

An anonymous community member mentioned that there is also a relative of Argentino who serves in the police force.

Mayor Corrado Figura of Noto expressed his sorrow, stating, "The whole community of Noto is shocked by what has happened, and we extend our deepest condolences to the family of the young victim." He noted that he had not personally encountered Argentino, suggesting that he may not have been frequently present in the community.

Former Mayor Corrado Bonfanti, who is familiar with the Argentino family, described them as hard-working and honest people.

He expressed his thoughts for both the family of Argentino and that of the young victim, stating that the situation evokes profound sorrow for all involved.
