Life After the Trial: The Bossetti Family

Nicolas Bossetti is 23 years old and is the eldest son of Massimo Bossetti, definitively convicted for the murder of 13-year-old Yara Gambirasio. He and his wife Marita Comi have two other children, aged 19 and 17. Yesterday, Bosetti, interviewed on Belve Crime, recounted that they visit him in prison every week. But what do Bossetti's children do today and how does Marita Comi live? Massimo Bossetti, private life: the wife's betrayals 'discovered in court', the attempted suicide, the 'morbid' relationship with his mother, the children, and the biological father. Marita Comi's life changed radically on June 16, 2014, the day of her husband's arrest. Initially overwhelmed by media clamor and insinuations about alleged betrayals or ambiguous behavior, Marita sought refuge in a new daily life made of work and silence. 'Ours was a happy marriage until I found out in prison about her betrayals,' Bossetti recounted. It was revealed to him by the prosecutor in court during the trial. And this is the deepest scar that Bossetti carries. And for this, he attempted suicide. 'When they told me about my wife's infidelity, I froze. What was the point of saying private things in a public courtroom? The next day I saw my wife. I asked her to tell me the truth, she admitted it, and I went mad. My head went off,' he recounted on Belve Crime. 'I attempted suicide as soon as I returned to the cell. I was found with my head in the sink and a belt around my neck. They took me to the infirmary and saved me. Faced with a strong drama, I didn't think about my children, but I couldn't understand anything anymore.' Today she is 45 years old and still lives in Mapello, in the same house where she lived with Massimo Bossetti and their three children. After difficult years and without a steady job, she managed to find employment in a cleaning company. Despite the difficulties, she has continued to publicly support her husband's innocence, claiming she never believed in his guilt. Those who know her today describe her as a marked woman, but determined to ensure a dignified future for her children. 'She just wants a normal life, even though she knows it will never be possible,' her brother said in an interview. Massimo Bossetti and Marita Comi have three children: Nicolas (23 years old), Alice (21 years old), and Aurora (18 years old). All three have grown up away from the spotlight, protected by their mother almost entirely during and after the trial. The eldest, Nicolas, allegedly refused significant media offers, such as participating in Big Brother 2024. According to Fabrizio Corona, he received a substantial financial offer but chose not to appear, refusing to use the surname to gain visibility. 'A gesture that honors him,' noted the former paparazzo. However, the news was denied. Nicolas now works in an artisan company, while the second daughter graduated in advertising graphics. The youngest is still in high school. Despite the burden of the surname, the three young people are trying to build an independent life, away from the tragedy that marked their adolescence. The Bossetti surname continues to be associated with one of Italy's most discussed crime cases. Yet, Marita Comi and her children have chosen silence as their only weapon to defend their serenity. No interviews, no public appearances, just work, school, and family. The mother has managed to keep the family together, even after the revocation of parental responsibility from Bossetti, decided by the Court after the conviction. The relationship with her husband continues, although limited by detention. 'They tell me that in prison he is well-liked by everyone,' she recounted, confirming that she continues to believe in his innocence.
