Izzo and Guido invited Colasanti, Lopez, and a third friend, who at the last moment decided not to join the group, to a party at Parboni's house in Lavinio, Anzio, about 50 km south of Rome.
Having arrived near Guido's house, the trio decided to go to a restaurant for dinner, where they were involved in a fight with two young communist militants whom they had crossed paths with by chance, so they left the car parked on Viale Pola in the Trieste quarter.
The following day, the Carabinieri discovered the latter's mother and brother near the Circeo home and speculated that Ghira had warned them and asked for help in making any traces disappear.
A few months later, Ghira wrote a letter, intercepted by investigators, to his friends Izzo and Guido, in which he assured them that they would be out soon "for good behavior" and threatened to kill Colasanti if she testified against them.
However, during his service he developed a drug problem, and, on May 28, 1980, began a six-month sentence in prison in Cadiz for an "alleged crime against public health."
On July 21, 1993, he was admitted to a military hospital, possibly for a head tumor, and was forcibly retired due to his poor psychophysical condition.
[5] To dispel them, in January 2016, the Rome Public Prosecutor's Office reopened the case and ordered that the body be exhumed again to undergo a new, more thorough DNA test.
The report, filed in June 2016 by Professors Giovanni Arcudi and Giuseppe Novelli, attested that the results of this test, carried out on bone marrow samples, confirm that the remains of the Spanish Foreign Legion NCO belong to Andrea Ghira.
They were the wife and daughter of his former cellmate Giovanni Maiorano, a Sacra corona unita turncoat who had been sentenced to life in prison for the 1990 decapitation of 17-year-old Cristiano Mazzeo for drug debts.
The two women were bound, suffocated, and buried in the courtyard of a small villa in Mirabello Sannitico, owned by the Città futura association secretary Guido Palladino.
The double murder was revealed on April 30 by Palladino and his associate, Luca Palaia, who were both initially arrested for illicit arms trafficking.
[12] In October 2021, Izzo made a statement before the Antimafia Commission regarding Rossella Corazzin, a Friulian woman who had disappeared aged 17 on August 21, 1975 while on vacation with her family in Pieve di Cadore in the province of Belluno.
Izzo traced her disappearance to the Masonic Lodge and claimed that she was targeted because of her virginity and used as a sacrificial victim in an initiation ceremony by the Confraternity of the Red Rose and the Golden Cross at Dr. Francesco Narducci's villa on Lake Trasimeno.
[13] During his incarceration, Izzo wrote several manuscripts, including "Decameron 1975", in which a group of neo-fascist youth flees Rome during a communist terror attack for a villa in San Felice Circeo, where they take turns telling each other stories due to a temporary lack of high-quality narcotics.
[14] Guido's prison sentence was modified on appeal on October 28, 1980, being changed from life imprisonment to 30 years, following a declaration of repentance and compensation of 100 million lire to the Lopez family.
On April 11, 2008, Gianni Guido's sentence was commuted to community service following 14 years in Rebibbia Prison, where he graduated with a Foreign Languages and Literature degree.
Letizia Lopez, Rosaria's sister, reacted negatively to this development, particularly about Guido's long absconding abroad, the absence of any signs of repentance on his part, and judging his detention regime to be insufficiently rigorous.
