The widow of a Monte dei Paschi
di Siena manager who allegedly committed suicide in March 2013
was acquitted of breach of privacy along with a journalist
Monday for the publication of an email between Rossi and former
MPS CEO Fabrizio Viola a few days before his death.
David's Rossi's widow Antonella Tognazzi and Il Fatto
Quotidiano reporter Davide Vecchi were cleared "because the
crime was not committed", a Siena judge said.
Prosecutors had asked for six months in jail for Tognazzi and
nine months for Vecchi.
Former MPS communications chief Rossi fell to his death from
an office window shortly after it emerged that a shady series of
derivative and structured-finance deals produced losses of 720
million euros for the troubled Tuscan lender.
Doubts have been raised about his suspected suicide.
