He will be released from prison, an electronic bracelet will be applied to him and he will be hosted in the apartments of a religious community far from Reggio, where he will be able to continue psychotherapy, re-elaborating the facts of which he was guilty: having fallen in love, having seduced and had sexual relations with a 14 years old in August 2023. This is what judge Andrea Rat decided yesterday for the educator Andrea Davoli, a 53-year-old sentenced on Tuesday to 4 years for sexual acts with a girl who had been entrusted to him as an operator of Student Youth (linked to CL). The Prosecutor’s Office and the plaintiff’s lawyer opposed the alternative measure to prison, but the judge accepted the request of the defense lawyer Liborio Cataliotti, who had pointed out that Davoli had remained under house arrest from December to July without ever violating the measurement and adhering to the requirements imposed on it. “Those 9 months are proof that he is capable of self-control – explains the lawyer Cataliotti –. As options, we have indicated to the judge two communities so far from our province that there will be no possibility of meeting with the girl. There are also two work options in the field. In the community, which offers ample guarantees, religious lessons, therapeutic and spiritual meetings are practiced. Davoli will be able to continue meetings with the authorized psychotherapist who is following him in prison: he must become aware of the negative value of what he has done. , to reintegrate into a social context in which, harmlessly, he is helped to find that balance and maturity that he evidently did not have. All in the perspective of what the recent Reform wants punishment to be”.
