Rome Reopens Investigation Into Pasolini Murder 51 Years On

Original: Rome Greenlights New Investigation of Pier Paolo Pasolini Murder 51 Years Ago

Rome prosecutors have authorized a new investigation into the 1975 murder of Italian filmmaker and poet Pier Paolo Pasolini, one of Italy's most notorious unsolved killings. The decision comes 51 years after his body was found on a beach near Ostia, and renews long-running debate over whether the crime involved more people than the man originally convicted, who later recanted his confession.

Why now: Prosecutors have just formally approved reopening the case, reviving public interest in Italy's most famous unresolved murder.
