Italy's highest court ordered the new trial after concluding the two Bay Area natives may not have known that the victim was a police officer due to their limited grasp of the Italian language.
Dan NoyesBay Area natives Finn Elder and Gabriel Natale-Hjorth appeared in court for a retrial over the fatal stabbing of an Italian police officer.A new trial began Friday for former Marin high school classmates who were convicted in the death of a plainclothes police officer in Rome, July 2019.
San Francisco's Finnegan Elder and Marin County's Gabriel Natale-Hjorth are being kept in separate prisons near Rome. As the Court of Appeal hearing began Friday, Elder seemed to try to catch Natale's eye, but he stared straight ahead. Court records show Elder stabbed Mario Cerciello-Rega with this military-style assault knife 11 times and ran back to the hotel. Natale-Hjorth was able to break free from the second officer. Lower courts convicted the two Americans in the killing, and now the Court of Appeals is reconsidering the case, taking into account the issue of language.
