Queer Places:
Viale Angelico, 00195 Roma RM
Enrico Sini Luzi (1931 - January 4, 1998) was found lifeless on Sunday 4 January 1998, with his skull smashed, in his Roman home: this is how the first elements that emerged from the autopsy performed at the time by Dr. Del Vecchio recited, while the magistrates in charge of the investigation - the deputy prosecutor Italo Ormanni and the deputy Giovanni Salvi - had also entrusted the hematological and chemical reports to ascertain whether in addition to the victim's blood in the apartment there were blood traces attributable to the murderer and to verify any signs of sexual intercourse. The magistrates also entrusted the examination of the victim's DNA to an expert. Torn tape marks were found on the man's arms. The apartment was found completely ransacked. According to initial investigations, none of the victim's neighbors saw anyone enter or leave the apartment in Viale Angelico, in the Prati district of Rome, on that Sunday in January. Certainly, Enrico Sini Luzi was alive in the afternoon of that day: in the early hours he was seen walking together with the dog around 4 pm, and a friend had spoken to him on the phone: to this friend, Enrico Sini Luzi had told that he had been invited to a friend's house for the evening of January 5. Immediately the carabinieri listened to a dozen people to obtain more information on the man's private life. The two brothers and a nephew, some friends and the owners of the pub that Sini Luzi frequented were heard. Enrico Sini Luzi was not a declared homosexual. He was a sociable, irreproachable, helpful, generous man. This is the portrait that emerged from the first testimonies collected: the portrait of a very discreet and reserved, wealthy person who lived in a very elegant apartment and who belonged to a wealthy family from Vetralla. In April 1989 Enrico Sini Luzi was named "Gentleman of His Holiness". By way of killing, discovery of the ransacked house and other similar elements, the crime of Enrico Sini Luzi, the Gentleman of His Holiness, immediately referred not only to the case of the murder of Count Alvise di Robilant, but also to that of the American professor Louis Inturrisi, aged 56, killed in Rome in August 1997.
