Confirm the sentence of 7 years in prison, without granting extenuating circumstances. This is the request of Milan's attorney general Piero De Petris before the judges of the Court of Appeal in the trial against Silvio Berlusconi, accused of extortion and child prostitution in the Ruby case.
According to De Petris, the first instance sentence was severe, but fair: "The severity of the disciplinary treatment is undeniable, for my part, however, I point out that the first instance sentence gave an account of the overall reasons regarding the fact that the disciplinary treatment does not could be attested to the minimum statutory penalty". For the magistrate, as mentioned, "There is no reason to grant the former prime minister general extenuating circumstances, both for the alleged crimes and for the overall behavior of the defendant". "Berlusconi's abuse was colossal when he called the Milan Police Headquarters".
