subject date: 2004-10-21

caption: MURRI TRIAL the dressmaker Rosina Bonetti, housekeeper of Linda Murri Bonmartini (1871 - 1957) and lover of her brother Tullio Murri, implicated in the murder of Count Francesco Bonmartini, Linda's husband. She was sentenced for aiding and abetting to seven and a half years in prison, with a reduced sentence due to semi-mental infirmity: for the first time in the history of Italian trials, the collaboration of psychiatric experts had been used; after her release from prison she was interned in a mental asylum. An intrigue developed in the Bologna-bene environment, which saw two families of opposing ideologies united by an incautious marriage that resulted in a murder plotted under the odor of shady relations, the Murri case was the subject of the first major popular trial with media resonance of the 20th century, held in Turin with a sentence of 11 August 1905; the proceedings involved the bourgeois family of the famous university professor Augusto Murri (1841 - 1932), a progressive republican, father of the defendants Linda and Tullio. Portrait, Bologna, 1902.
