Show business agent Fabrizio
Chinaglia was acquitted in July of inducing show girl Sara
Tommasi to have sex with him by hitting her and plying her with
drugs because of the "fragile evidence", an explanation of the
verdict said Thursday.
Prosecutors argued that Tommasi had been in a state of
"psychological inferiority" caused by a personality disorder and
psychosis due to cocaine.
Chinaglia was accused of forcing her to have sex by beating
and threatening her.
He was acquitted in the most complete way, because the "crime
was not committed".
Prosecutors had requested an eight-year jail term for a
string of alleged crimes including sexual violence, drug
distribution and extortion.
In the explanation of the verdict, as well as the fragility
of the evidence, Tommasi's "contradictory" statements were
highlighted.
