Lady Gucci’s Trial and Release
Reggiani’s former friend, and psychic, Pina Auriemma said in court that she had hired a hitman on Reggiani’s request. Three other accomplices emerged—Pina’s friend who set up the hitman, the hitman, and the getaway driver.
Patrizia ‘Lady Gucci’ Reggiani was convicted of plotting the murder. She maintained her innocence and even her daughters Alessandra and Allegra claimed that an earlier brain tumour might’ve caused her behaviour. Reggiani also accused her friend Pina of arranging for the hitman herself and framing her.
In 2014, a reporter caught Patrizia Reggiani and asked her, “Patrizia, why did you hire a hitman to kill Maurizio Gucci? Why didn’t you shoot him yourself?”
“My eyesight is not so good. I didn’t want to miss,” she responded. Alessandro Brunero, co-owner of Bozart, told The Guardian, “Naturally, Patrizia was only joking…”
