Notable Cases

Monster of Florence

Main article: Monster of Florence

Mignini was involved in the investigation of a series of murders that took place in Florence, Italy between 1968 and 1985. At various points in time, four people were tried and convicted although critics have expressed that the true killers have not been found.

Allegations of abuse of office

In 2006, Mignini was charged with abuse of office for ordering (?) the illegal wiretapping of the phones for various police officers and journalists involved in the Monster of Florence case. In January 2010, he was found guilty of exceeding the powers of his office but acquitted of the remaining charges. He was given a 16 month sentence which is suspended during the appeal. Mignini has appealed the conviction, saying "My conscience is clear, I know I did nothing wrong." He will remain in office through the appeal process, as Italian law does not consider convictions final until all appeals are exhausted.
