Fatal stabbing of Italian cop by Marin County teens goes to high court
ROME — Italy’s highest court on Wednesday was hearing the final appeal of two young Bay Area men convicted in the stabbing death of a police officer during a plainclothes operation in Rome in the summer of 2019.
The defendants were sentenced to life, Italy’s most severe penalty, in the initial trial. An appeals court last year upheld the convictions, but reduced the sentences to 24 years for Elder and 22 years for Natale-Hjorth. The Italian system allows defendants yet another appeal to Italy’s supreme Cassation court.
