Libero Corso Bovio

On 9 July 2007, Corso Bovio returned from a business trip to Prato at around 2 pm. He had handed a letter to his assistant, which had to be delivered to his wife and had locked in his office, located in Via Podgora, 13, Milan. Shortly thereafter, his assistant heard a shot, and the lawyer was found dead inside his room. From the beginning, detectives considered more likely that a suicide occurred, by blowing in the mouth with a 357 Magnum.

Libero Corso Bovio graduated in law in 1971 at the age of 24 with 110/110 cum laude from the University of Milan. He also became a journalist in 1970. Over time, he became a well-known and talented lawyer, and worked in a well-known office specialized in press laws and criminal law. He was also married to lawyer Rita Percile.
