[Dan] The Murder
of Maurizio Gucci
2
00:00:06,173 --> 00:00:08,440
captured the attention
of the world.
3
00:00:10,643 --> 00:00:14,680
Maurizio was very concerned
of all the family.
4
00:00:14,682 --> 00:00:17,616
Everybody wanted
their piece of Gucci
5
00:00:17,618 --> 00:00:20,919
and felt entitled to have
their piece of Gucci.
6
00:00:20,921 --> 00:00:24,189
[Andrea] He was quite happy
to betray his family.
7
00:00:24,191 --> 00:00:27,126
He felt predestined
to run the company.
8
00:00:27,128 --> 00:00:29,328
[Sara] Infighting, revenge
9
00:00:29,330 --> 00:00:34,166
Each one of them could have had
a motive for wanting Maurizio dead.
10
00:00:35,902 --> 00:00:37,603
He changed completely.
11
00:00:38,238 --> 00:00:40,539
Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde
12
00:00:41,107 --> 00:00:45,077
[theme music playing]
13
00:01:06,232 --> 00:01:10,969
In 1995, a murder in Milan
shocks the world of high fashion.
14
00:01:10,971 --> 00:01:14,840
Here at People Magazine, we've
been covering this story for decades.
15
00:01:14,842 --> 00:01:18,977
It's a tale of one of the world's
most identifiable designer labels
16
00:01:18,979 --> 00:01:21,213
and a family at war
with their self.
17
00:01:21,981 --> 00:01:23,248
And at the center of it all
18
00:01:23,250 --> 00:01:24,650
is Lady Gucci.
19
00:01:26,119 --> 00:01:29,021
And this is the last known
American interview
20
00:01:29,023 --> 00:01:31,857
with Patrizia Reggiani Gucci.
21
00:01:31,859 --> 00:01:35,127
Uh, to be a Gucci, means...
22
00:01:36,329 --> 00:01:38,230
that I remember...
23
00:01:38,832 --> 00:01:39,965
the past.
24
00:01:42,368 --> 00:01:43,435
At the beginning,
25
00:01:44,237 --> 00:01:46,271
Life was like a dream.
26
00:01:46,906 --> 00:01:48,874
At that time,
27
00:01:48,876 --> 00:01:50,476
the name Gucci,
28
00:01:50,478 --> 00:01:52,111
was a symbol.
29
00:01:52,113 --> 00:01:56,849
A symbol of looks, good taste.
30
00:01:56,851 --> 00:02:00,919
The name Gucci has long been a
symbol of glamour across the globe.
31
00:02:00,921 --> 00:02:04,189
It's an international
high fashion power house.
32
00:02:04,191 --> 00:02:07,559
And Maurizio Gucci
is really the heir
33
00:02:07,561 --> 00:02:10,562
to this hundred million dollar
Gucci dynasty.
34
00:02:11,131 --> 00:02:13,065
[speaking]
35
00:02:24,911 --> 00:02:27,312
He had a positive attitude.
36
00:02:27,314 --> 00:02:29,915
He understood the industry.
37
00:02:29,917 --> 00:02:31,850
Where it was going.
38
00:02:31,852 --> 00:02:35,621
He was always happy to be
Maurizio Gucci.
39
00:02:36,222 --> 00:02:37,990
Very charming man.
40
00:02:37,992 --> 00:02:40,159
Very shy at the same time.
41
00:02:40,894 --> 00:02:43,095
Maurizio as a younger man was,
42
00:02:43,097 --> 00:02:45,931
shy and a little bit awkward.
43
00:02:45,933 --> 00:02:51,003
He went on to become a very
charismatic, attractive compelling man.
44
00:02:51,005 --> 00:02:53,205
But as a younger man
he was not that at all
45
00:02:53,207 --> 00:02:56,108
and it took him a while
to build his confidence.
46
00:02:56,110 --> 00:02:58,877
And a lot of that probably
came about,
47
00:02:58,879 --> 00:03:01,113
when he met Patrizia
and fell in love.
48
00:03:04,050 --> 00:03:06,451
[Patrizia] When I was
with Maurizio
49
00:03:06,453 --> 00:03:08,987
we did everything.
50
00:03:12,425 --> 00:03:13,992
She was very aware of Maurizio
51
00:03:13,994 --> 00:03:18,964
and he was just the kind of eligible
bachelor that she was looking for.
52
00:03:19,332 --> 00:03:21,633
I met Maurizio at a party.
53
00:03:22,035 --> 00:03:24,770
And then he pursued me.
54
00:03:24,772 --> 00:03:28,173
Her friends had told her
about this dashing young Gucci.
55
00:03:28,175 --> 00:03:31,510
Initially, she played it cool
pretending to not know who he was.
56
00:03:32,979 --> 00:03:35,914
[Elaine] Patrizia was
strikingly beautiful.
57
00:03:35,916 --> 00:03:39,117
Maurizio told her she looked
just like Elizabeth Taylor
58
00:03:39,886 --> 00:03:41,486
[speaking in Italian]
59
00:03:48,027 --> 00:03:50,128
She was fun, she was gregarious,
60
00:03:50,130 --> 00:03:52,064
she was a breath of fresh air.
61
00:03:53,366 --> 00:03:56,768
We were in New York one month.
62
00:03:56,770 --> 00:03:58,670
And in the other month,
we're in Italy.
63
00:03:59,806 --> 00:04:02,808
[Dan] They're this young
fabulous Italian couple
64
00:04:02,810 --> 00:04:05,877
throwing parties at the
hottest night spots in New York.
65
00:04:05,879 --> 00:04:09,181
They're even socializing
with the Kennedys.
66
00:04:09,183 --> 00:04:14,253
Step by step, I met all
the New York that counts.
67
00:04:14,255 --> 00:04:15,988
They loved me.
68
00:04:18,858 --> 00:04:22,394
Patrizia really wanted to be
la Signora Gucci.
69
00:04:22,396 --> 00:04:24,363
And she wanted to be the best.
70
00:04:24,864 --> 00:04:26,231
Signora Gucci.
71
00:04:26,233 --> 00:04:28,233
[speaking in Italian]
72
00:04:37,377 --> 00:04:39,978
So, this shy young man
who had been sort of awkward
73
00:04:39,980 --> 00:04:41,446
when he met Patrizia,
74
00:04:41,448 --> 00:04:42,781
he becomes,
75
00:04:42,783 --> 00:04:44,283
almost like a movie star,
76
00:04:44,285 --> 00:04:48,120
he would sweep into the room and
we're awed to be in his presence.
77
00:04:48,254 --> 00:04:50,656
[speaking in Italian]
78
00:04:55,194 --> 00:04:58,430
[Andrea] She was a woman
who was driven by success
79
00:04:58,432 --> 00:05:02,067
and pushed very much
Maurizio too with success.
80
00:05:02,069 --> 00:05:04,369
And he decided
81
00:05:04,371 --> 00:05:07,172
that he found
the love of his life.
82
00:05:07,174 --> 00:05:09,341
And they had
two daughters together.
83
00:05:09,909 --> 00:05:12,811
The happiest day of my life,
84
00:05:12,813 --> 00:05:16,315
was when my two children
were born.
85
00:05:16,983 --> 00:05:19,351
When I was with Maurizio,
86
00:05:19,353 --> 00:05:21,320
I was very, very happy.
87
00:05:23,923 --> 00:05:27,359
[Dan] On the morning of
March 27th, 1995,
88
00:05:27,361 --> 00:05:29,461
Maurizio Gucci wakes up
in his apartment
89
00:05:29,463 --> 00:05:32,297
and he leaves for his office
like he does every morning.
90
00:05:32,965 --> 00:05:35,534
To arrive by 8:00, 8:30.
91
00:05:36,069 --> 00:05:39,071
It's a bit breezy
and a little bit grey.
92
00:05:40,306 --> 00:05:44,509
The doorman at his office happens
to be outside sweeping the front steps.
93
00:05:46,179 --> 00:05:49,981
As the doorman is sweeping
the leaves in the front
94
00:05:49,983 --> 00:05:54,219
He's looking up a couple times and he's
noticing that there's a man across the street
95
00:05:54,221 --> 00:05:56,722
who's kind of hanging out there.
96
00:05:56,724 --> 00:05:59,691
And he's looking up the street as
though he's waiting for somebody.
97
00:06:01,928 --> 00:06:04,396
[Dan] So, Maurizio walks in
and says hello.
98
00:06:04,398 --> 00:06:06,231
As he starts to
walk up the stairs,
99
00:06:06,233 --> 00:06:07,899
then all of a sudden,
100
00:06:07,901 --> 00:06:10,035
the stranger from
outside is behind him.
101
00:06:12,572 --> 00:06:14,306
He pulls a gun from his coat,
102
00:06:14,308 --> 00:06:16,141
stretches out his arm,
103
00:06:18,044 --> 00:06:19,411
and fires three shots
104
00:06:19,413 --> 00:06:20,912
at Maurizio Gucci.
105
00:06:20,914 --> 00:06:23,315
[gunshots]
106
00:06:25,651 --> 00:06:28,253
Maurizio falls
to the ground wounded.
107
00:06:28,255 --> 00:06:30,889
And then the attacker
moves closer.
108
00:06:30,891 --> 00:06:33,992
And fires the fatal shot
to the temple.
109
00:06:35,561 --> 00:06:36,595
[gunshot]
110
00:06:39,098 --> 00:06:41,400
[Sara] When the killer
turns around to flee
111
00:06:41,402 --> 00:06:47,305
and there's the doorman who was
watching this whole scene in horror.
112
00:06:47,307 --> 00:06:51,943
And so the killer then fires another shot
at the doorman and hits him in the arm.
113
00:06:51,945 --> 00:06:54,379
And then runs off
down the street.
114
00:06:57,650 --> 00:06:59,484
It was early in the morning,
115
00:07:01,487 --> 00:07:03,989
I received the telephone call
116
00:07:03,991 --> 00:07:05,957
that was telling me
117
00:07:05,959 --> 00:07:08,460
that Maurizio was shot.
118
00:07:10,663 --> 00:07:13,432
[Sara] The police arrived
very quickly, in the meantime,
119
00:07:13,434 --> 00:07:16,668
the word has gone out that there's
been a murder in downtown Milan.
120
00:07:18,771 --> 00:07:21,072
It's chaotic,
there's pandemonium.
121
00:07:21,074 --> 00:07:23,442
And they're trying
to cordon off the crime scene.
122
00:07:25,178 --> 00:07:26,912
There's a big sense of shock
123
00:07:26,914 --> 00:07:31,383
because this is such a violent
and an unprecedented happening
124
00:07:31,385 --> 00:07:33,385
in a city like Milan.
125
00:07:35,388 --> 00:07:37,923
[Andrea] I have a very clear
recollection
126
00:07:37,925 --> 00:07:41,860
of the minute that
I found out that Maurizio
127
00:07:41,862 --> 00:07:42,861
had been killed.
128
00:07:42,863 --> 00:07:44,996
My first reaction was,
129
00:07:44,998 --> 00:07:47,265
A, it cannot be true.
130
00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:50,502
And, B, if it has happened,
131
00:07:50,504 --> 00:07:53,205
it's something that's
132
00:07:53,207 --> 00:07:55,040
gonna be very difficult
to explain.
133
00:07:57,910 --> 00:08:00,078
You know Maurizio had,
134
00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:03,648
some enemies but there was
nobody that at least I met
135
00:08:03,650 --> 00:08:04,883
through my long
136
00:08:04,885 --> 00:08:06,017
relationship with him
137
00:08:06,019 --> 00:08:09,354
that would lead to a killing.
138
00:08:13,659 --> 00:08:16,661
The murder of such a high
profile member of the Gucci family
139
00:08:16,663 --> 00:08:18,230
made news not just in Italy,
140
00:08:18,232 --> 00:08:20,298
but around the world.
141
00:08:20,300 --> 00:08:22,234
As people searched for answers.
142
00:08:22,236 --> 00:08:24,135
And the family was speechless.
143
00:08:24,804 --> 00:08:26,004
I was, uh...
144
00:08:34,947 --> 00:08:36,648
Why somebody would kill Maurizio
145
00:08:36,650 --> 00:08:38,650
because Maurizio ultimately
146
00:08:38,652 --> 00:08:42,187
was a nice man, he was
not a threat to anybody.
147
00:08:54,000 --> 00:08:55,634
[Patrizia speaking in Italian]
148
00:09:03,342 --> 00:09:04,643
And then...
149
00:09:06,078 --> 00:09:07,913
I understand
150
00:09:07,915 --> 00:09:09,814
what was...
151
00:09:09,816 --> 00:09:11,049
feeling lost.
152
00:09:13,352 --> 00:09:14,886
[Dan] With the funeral over
153
00:09:14,888 --> 00:09:17,989
and no easy answers on
the identity of the shooter.
154
00:09:17,991 --> 00:09:21,960
The police investigation
begins in earnest.
155
00:09:21,962 --> 00:09:25,764
So, in Italy, the magistrate is both
an investigator and a prosecutor
156
00:09:25,766 --> 00:09:28,233
whereas here you would have
those roles split.
157
00:09:29,335 --> 00:09:32,637
Nocerino was the leading
magistrate in Milan.
158
00:09:32,639 --> 00:09:37,108
In-charge of both the investigation
and of then leading the prosecution.
159
00:09:37,743 --> 00:09:40,011
[speaking in Italian]
160
00:09:47,186 --> 00:09:50,822
[Sara] Nocerino was
experienced in financial crimes.
161
00:09:50,824 --> 00:09:54,960
And is immediately thinking
that maybe Maurizio has been
162
00:09:54,962 --> 00:09:57,996
drawn into some kind of
dirty business relationship.
163
00:10:57,289 --> 00:10:58,390
[gunshot]
164
00:11:02,995 --> 00:11:04,929
[Dan] When Maurizio Gucci,
a one-time heir
165
00:11:04,931 --> 00:11:08,366
to the multi-million dollar
Gucci fashion label is shot dead,
166
00:11:08,368 --> 00:11:11,670
investigators believe
that this was a hired hit.
167
00:11:11,672 --> 00:11:14,205
Maurizio Gucci was executed.
168
00:11:30,556 --> 00:11:32,323
So, Nocerino is really doing
169
00:11:32,325 --> 00:11:36,928
a deep investigation into
Maurizio's business dealings,
170
00:11:36,930 --> 00:11:41,366
and he also does a deep dive
into the people within Gucci.
171
00:11:42,535 --> 00:11:45,003
[Nocerino speaking]
172
00:12:04,023 --> 00:12:06,825
[Sara] There was a lot of
competition within the family,
173
00:12:06,827 --> 00:12:09,894
and everyone wanted
their piece of Gucci
174
00:12:09,896 --> 00:12:14,065
and everyone felt entitled
to have their piece of Gucci.
175
00:12:14,067 --> 00:12:17,302
[Dan] To understand the power
struggles in The House of Gucci,
176
00:12:17,304 --> 00:12:20,038
Nocerino had to go back
to the very beginning
177
00:12:20,040 --> 00:12:21,673
and how it all started.
178
00:12:34,153 --> 00:12:35,653
[Sara] He was smart,
179
00:12:36,088 --> 00:12:39,224
and he saw that the wealthy people
of Europe were travelling around
180
00:12:39,226 --> 00:12:40,592
with lots of luggage
181
00:12:40,594 --> 00:12:42,794
and so he came up with
the idea of,
182
00:12:42,796 --> 00:12:46,297
opening a leather and luggage
shop in the heart of Florence
183
00:12:46,299 --> 00:12:48,166
and that's where Gucci
got its start.
184
00:12:58,878 --> 00:13:01,212
Gucci family was really
a dynasty.
185
00:13:01,214 --> 00:13:03,281
It started with Guccio Gucci,
186
00:13:03,283 --> 00:13:06,985
but then his sons,
Aldo and Rodolfo,
187
00:13:06,987 --> 00:13:08,853
and then their children.
188
00:13:08,855 --> 00:13:10,655
They were all very indicative of
189
00:13:10,657 --> 00:13:14,259
the classic Italian saying
about family businesses
190
00:13:14,261 --> 00:13:16,261
which is that
the first generation creates,
191
00:13:16,263 --> 00:13:17,996
the second generation expands,
192
00:13:17,998 --> 00:13:20,098
and the third generation
destroys.
193
00:13:22,835 --> 00:13:25,937
At first, it works well, the
brothers split the company 50/50.
194
00:13:25,939 --> 00:13:28,139
With Rodolfo based in Italy.
195
00:13:28,141 --> 00:13:31,543
Aldo leading the expansion
in to international new markets.
196
00:13:32,244 --> 00:13:33,912
But, Aldo has three sons,
197
00:13:33,914 --> 00:13:36,381
while Rodolfo only has Maurizio
198
00:13:37,283 --> 00:13:39,617
and this becomes
a recipe for conflict.
199
00:13:41,053 --> 00:13:43,221
[Sara] In Milan,
there was an elite class
200
00:13:43,223 --> 00:13:45,423
of industrialists.
201
00:13:45,425 --> 00:13:50,929
And Rodolfo had envisioned a wife for
Maurizio who came from this elite, who was
202
00:13:50,931 --> 00:13:52,263
cut from the same cloth.
203
00:13:53,365 --> 00:13:57,235
Well, first, I had all enemies.
204
00:13:58,003 --> 00:13:59,971
[Patrizia] Everybody told me
205
00:13:59,973 --> 00:14:02,674
that I was inappropriate
206
00:14:02,676 --> 00:14:04,943
because this message...
207
00:14:04,945 --> 00:14:09,414
was the message that
my father in law told them.
208
00:14:09,416 --> 00:14:12,650
In the eyes of the Gucci
family, Patrizia was an outsider.
209
00:14:12,652 --> 00:14:14,018
A social climber.
210
00:14:15,221 --> 00:14:18,890
[Elaine] Rodolfo refused
to accept their marriage
211
00:14:18,892 --> 00:14:22,560
He even went to the Catholic
church and complained to the Cardinal
212
00:14:22,562 --> 00:14:25,430
begging them not
to perform the ceremony.
213
00:14:25,432 --> 00:14:28,967
He dared to say, "I'm gonna
get married with this lady,
214
00:14:28,969 --> 00:14:31,369
whether you like it
or not."
215
00:14:31,371 --> 00:14:33,905
So, that was the first time
that in a way Maurizio,
216
00:14:33,907 --> 00:14:35,807
on a personal basis came out
217
00:14:35,809 --> 00:14:38,343
to be his own sort of man.
218
00:14:40,813 --> 00:14:45,116
When Rodolfo found out that
Maurizio wasn't going to listen to him.
219
00:14:45,118 --> 00:14:47,151
He threw him out of the house,
220
00:14:47,153 --> 00:14:48,887
he threw him out of the company,
221
00:14:48,889 --> 00:14:52,290
and he completely shut him
off. They didn't speak for years.
222
00:14:53,058 --> 00:14:55,026
[Elaine] This would set
the stage,
223
00:14:55,028 --> 00:14:58,663
for one of the biggest betrayals
in the history of the family.
224
00:14:58,665 --> 00:15:01,833
As a rejected Maurizio
and his new bride
225
00:15:01,835 --> 00:15:04,669
are invited to New York
by their Uncle Aldo.
226
00:15:05,537 --> 00:15:07,672
[Sara] Aldo really liked
Maurizio,
227
00:15:07,674 --> 00:15:12,043
they were actually very close when
Maurizio was estranged from his own father.
228
00:15:12,045 --> 00:15:15,013
Aldo thought that he was
talented and he had potential
229
00:15:15,015 --> 00:15:17,215
and he wanted to bring him
in to the business.
230
00:15:18,450 --> 00:15:20,151
[Andrea] He said to Maurizio,
231
00:15:20,153 --> 00:15:21,920
"I will teach you the trade,
232
00:15:21,922 --> 00:15:25,823
and then you will do even
better than I have done."
233
00:15:25,825 --> 00:15:32,297
Aldo saw Maurizio as his best
chance of a third generation,
234
00:15:32,299 --> 00:15:35,300
that takes the company
to a different level.
235
00:15:35,302 --> 00:15:39,070
So, according to Uncle Aldo...
236
00:15:39,338 --> 00:15:40,338
uh, wishes,
237
00:15:40,906 --> 00:15:42,674
we went to New York.
238
00:15:45,110 --> 00:15:47,178
[Dan] Newly married, but now
estranged from his father,
239
00:15:47,180 --> 00:15:50,448
the family
is thriving in New York.
240
00:15:50,450 --> 00:15:53,618
[Andrea] They go through a
very special period of their life.
241
00:15:53,620 --> 00:15:55,887
Maurizio is no longer,
242
00:15:55,889 --> 00:16:00,058
being dependent on his father
which he was all of his life.
243
00:16:00,060 --> 00:16:02,961
Second, he is madly in love
with his wife.
244
00:16:03,262 --> 00:16:06,030
And third, Patrizia is
245
00:16:06,032 --> 00:16:08,399
so fascinated by New York and by
246
00:16:08,401 --> 00:16:10,234
the American way of life.
247
00:16:10,236 --> 00:16:11,936
In fact, they're flying
all over,
248
00:16:11,938 --> 00:16:15,173
going to fabulous parties
and meeting fabulous people.
249
00:16:15,175 --> 00:16:18,977
And one of these fabulous
people is Pina Auriemma.
250
00:16:18,979 --> 00:16:22,280
By some accounts, she's a
psychic or a tarot card reader.
251
00:16:22,282 --> 00:16:25,483
Patrizia and Pina
quickly become close friends.
252
00:16:27,987 --> 00:16:28,987
[Andrea] Pina...
253
00:16:29,355 --> 00:16:31,222
who was a psychic.
254
00:16:32,124 --> 00:16:36,828
Her role was of being trusted
by both Maurizio
255
00:16:36,830 --> 00:16:38,096
and Patrizia.
256
00:16:38,497 --> 00:16:40,365
Pina was a very...
257
00:16:40,367 --> 00:16:41,599
dear friend of mine.
258
00:16:42,067 --> 00:16:44,836
Pina was, uh...
259
00:16:44,838 --> 00:16:47,338
destroying all my problem
260
00:16:47,740 --> 00:16:49,240
with a sense of humor.
261
00:16:51,143 --> 00:16:55,346
[Andrea] Maurizio had always
been very attentive
262
00:16:55,348 --> 00:16:57,181
to superstition,
263
00:16:57,183 --> 00:17:00,418
and whenever he had
to do something important
264
00:17:00,420 --> 00:17:03,921
he had also this type of advice,
265
00:17:03,923 --> 00:17:07,392
helping him
in his decision process.
266
00:17:08,994 --> 00:17:12,397
[Dan] Maurizio was flourishing
under the guidance of his Uncle Aldo.
267
00:17:13,198 --> 00:17:15,266
But, a new problem emerged.
268
00:17:15,268 --> 00:17:19,237
There was a certain amount of
jealousy brewing among Aldo's children.
269
00:17:20,639 --> 00:17:25,443
Aldo had five children
and Maurizio was alone.
270
00:17:26,011 --> 00:17:28,146
One side was five,
271
00:17:28,148 --> 00:17:30,148
and one side was one.
272
00:17:31,016 --> 00:17:33,317
They had different visions
for the business.
273
00:17:34,119 --> 00:17:35,319
They all thought that they were
274
00:17:35,321 --> 00:17:37,889
marketing geniuses,
275
00:17:37,891 --> 00:17:41,259
and as a result the build up
of the problems started.
276
00:17:43,362 --> 00:17:45,663
[Patrizia] When Rodolfo died,
277
00:17:45,665 --> 00:17:49,333
the problem of the shares
were up.
278
00:17:49,335 --> 00:17:53,371
Maurizio inherited
of course, the 50 percent.
279
00:17:53,373 --> 00:17:56,674
What happened
is very difficult to say.
280
00:17:58,343 --> 00:18:01,045
[Andrea] At that point
of time, he became
281
00:18:01,047 --> 00:18:03,748
the single largest shareholder.
282
00:18:03,750 --> 00:18:06,217
Fifty percent of the company.
283
00:18:06,219 --> 00:18:10,121
And he feels that he has the
skills, the will, and the knowledge
284
00:18:10,123 --> 00:18:13,324
to actually run the company
at a different level.
285
00:18:21,366 --> 00:18:25,036
Maurizio now controls the majority
of the shares in the company.
286
00:18:25,270 --> 00:18:28,673
His Uncle Aldo holds 40%.
287
00:18:28,675 --> 00:18:32,944
Having made the fateful
decision to split the other 10%
288
00:18:32,946 --> 00:18:34,612
among his own sons.
289
00:18:36,081 --> 00:18:38,249
All of a sudden, Maurizio
steps forward and says,
290
00:18:38,251 --> 00:18:40,885
"I'm no longer anyone's protege
291
00:18:40,887 --> 00:18:44,322
I own half of this company
and you will all listen to me now."
292
00:18:44,324 --> 00:18:46,991
This created an uproar.
293
00:18:46,993 --> 00:18:50,128
[Dan] It was Maurizio's cousin
Paolo, who was really angry.
294
00:18:50,130 --> 00:18:53,931
Not only at Maurizio,
but at everyone in the family.
295
00:18:53,933 --> 00:18:57,535
When there was a Gucci fight,
he was usually at the center of it.
296
00:19:12,317 --> 00:19:15,720
[Elaine] There was a lot of bad
blood spilled between the Guccis
297
00:19:15,722 --> 00:19:18,156
and sometimes,
it was real blood.
298
00:19:18,158 --> 00:19:22,126
There was one meeting that
Paolo brought a tape recorder to,
299
00:19:22,128 --> 00:19:25,963
because he didn't trust that
anyone would negotiate honestly.
300
00:19:25,965 --> 00:19:28,933
There was shouting, he
was hit with the tape recorder
301
00:19:28,935 --> 00:19:32,136
and then he ran out screaming
that he was going to sue.
302
00:19:32,771 --> 00:19:35,072
Maurizio, without me...
303
00:19:35,074 --> 00:19:41,245
had the idea to buy
the shares from Paolo.
304
00:19:42,414 --> 00:19:44,148
[speaking in Italian]
305
00:19:49,254 --> 00:19:52,123
The first thing he told me
was he felt
306
00:19:52,125 --> 00:19:56,460
that he was predestined
to run the company
307
00:19:56,462 --> 00:20:00,264
and turn the company which was
already a very successful company
308
00:20:00,266 --> 00:20:02,300
into a global business.
309
00:20:04,102 --> 00:20:07,104
[Sara] So, they hatch
a very clever strategy
310
00:20:07,106 --> 00:20:10,608
to buy out the shares
of Maurizio's cousins.
311
00:20:10,610 --> 00:20:13,311
It was a secret campaign
because none of the brothers
312
00:20:13,313 --> 00:20:16,914
could know that Maurizio was
behind it or they wouldn't sell.
313
00:20:16,916 --> 00:20:20,084
How did we get it?
It's very simple.
314
00:20:20,086 --> 00:20:24,222
Paolo was going through a
very difficult time in his life.
315
00:20:24,224 --> 00:20:27,225
And I said, you know,
I will pay over the odds
316
00:20:27,227 --> 00:20:29,627
for this specific block
of shares.
317
00:20:31,129 --> 00:20:33,798
[Sara] Paolo thought
he was selling to an investor.
318
00:20:33,800 --> 00:20:37,101
Little did he know
that Maurizio was behind it.
319
00:20:37,103 --> 00:20:40,738
[Andrea] He was quite happy
to betray his family.
320
00:20:40,740 --> 00:20:42,873
He just asked how much.
321
00:20:42,875 --> 00:20:47,612
Andrea Morante did all the
negotiations one by one with the brothers
322
00:20:47,614 --> 00:20:50,615
and then the final negotiation
with Aldo.
323
00:20:52,217 --> 00:20:55,253
He had no choice, but to
follow his sons out the door
324
00:20:55,255 --> 00:20:58,623
because they already had
the majority.
325
00:20:58,625 --> 00:21:03,995
He told me, "You're not buying stock,
you know, you're buying my soul here."
326
00:21:03,997 --> 00:21:06,564
[Sara] When they realized that
it was Maurizio, it was as though
327
00:21:06,566 --> 00:21:09,133
he had plunged a knife
into their hearts.
328
00:21:09,135 --> 00:21:12,970
Aldo, in particular felt
incredibly betrayed by his nephew
329
00:21:12,972 --> 00:21:14,772
who he had tried to help.
330
00:21:14,774 --> 00:21:19,610
Each one of them could have had
a motive for wanting Maurizio dead.
331
00:21:27,252 --> 00:21:31,822
After learning how Maurizio ruthlessly
seized control of the family business.
332
00:21:31,824 --> 00:21:36,360
Police believe each of Maurizio's
cousins has a powerful motive to kill him.
333
00:21:36,362 --> 00:21:39,597
Investigations began
wiretapping all of the Guccis.
334
00:21:39,599 --> 00:21:42,833
Combing through their financial
records and phone records,
335
00:21:42,835 --> 00:21:46,504
looking for any evidence that might
connect a member of the Gucci family
336
00:21:46,506 --> 00:21:48,239
to Maurizio's murder.
337
00:21:48,874 --> 00:21:51,042
[speaking in Italian]
338
00:22:02,254 --> 00:22:06,023
At the same time, they begin investigating
Maurizio's other business interests,
339
00:22:06,025 --> 00:22:08,459
and, of course,
they call in Patrizia.
340
00:22:09,394 --> 00:22:11,195
[speaking in Italian]
341
00:22:17,035 --> 00:22:20,137
Patrizia is unable to give
Nocerino any helpful leads.
342
00:22:20,139 --> 00:22:23,841
He learns that at the time of Maurizio's
death, the couple was separated,
343
00:22:23,843 --> 00:22:26,110
and communicating mostly
through lawyers.
344
00:22:27,212 --> 00:22:32,950
Our relationship was broken.
345
00:22:35,087 --> 00:22:36,587
[Andrea] Patrizia was
very ambitious.
346
00:22:36,589 --> 00:22:38,856
She wanted to have a role
within the company
347
00:22:38,858 --> 00:22:44,929
wanting to become not only
Mrs. Gucci, but also Gucci CEO.
348
00:22:44,931 --> 00:22:47,998
And Maurizio was not in accord.
349
00:22:48,000 --> 00:22:53,304
She was coming into the office and
creating scenes in front of the staff.
350
00:22:53,306 --> 00:22:56,941
Their relationship really
started to break apart.
351
00:22:56,943 --> 00:23:00,010
[Elaine] And then, one morning,
he packs a small suitcase,
352
00:23:00,012 --> 00:23:03,280
for what he says is a quick
business trip to Florence.
353
00:23:03,282 --> 00:23:08,753
And the following day, a friend
calls with a message from Maurizio.
354
00:23:08,755 --> 00:23:13,324
I received the telephone call
by this friend of us
355
00:23:13,326 --> 00:23:16,360
and he said, "I have to see you,
356
00:23:16,362 --> 00:23:20,264
because what I have
to tell you is not great."
357
00:23:21,533 --> 00:23:23,367
Maurizio went away.
358
00:23:24,803 --> 00:23:26,370
[inaudible]
359
00:23:26,372 --> 00:23:32,042
I didn't realize that Maurizio
was separating by me.
360
00:23:32,044 --> 00:23:38,382
I will never believe
that he was split up from me.
361
00:23:38,384 --> 00:23:41,452
Because I was doing everything
for him.
362
00:23:48,827 --> 00:23:50,394
[laughs]
363
00:23:58,069 --> 00:24:01,238
[Andrea] The relationship with
Patrizia was a dependent relationship.
364
00:24:01,240 --> 00:24:05,209
All of a sudden, that
dependency had been eliminated
365
00:24:05,211 --> 00:24:09,547
and therefore, he was free to focus
exclusively on what he wanted to do
366
00:24:09,549 --> 00:24:11,282
which was turnaround
the company.
367
00:24:11,284 --> 00:24:15,085
[Elaine] With his cousins sidelined
and Patrizia out of the picture,
368
00:24:15,087 --> 00:24:19,757
Maurizio implements his
own vision for the company.
369
00:24:19,759 --> 00:24:23,594
[Dan] By the mid-1980s, the Gucci
family had licensed their brand and logo
370
00:24:23,596 --> 00:24:26,864
to any number
of cheap manufacturers.
371
00:24:26,866 --> 00:24:31,902
Maurizio wanted to return the company
to its high end, luxury, glory days.
372
00:24:31,904 --> 00:24:34,872
No more Gucci place mats,
no more Gucci towels,
373
00:24:34,874 --> 00:24:37,475
no more Gucci shops
in every mall.
374
00:24:37,477 --> 00:24:39,944
He brings in a new design team
to revamp the brand
375
00:24:39,946 --> 00:24:43,080
and sets the stage
for the company's resurgence.
376
00:24:44,816 --> 00:24:47,318
[Elaine] Maurizio may have had
a long term vision,
377
00:24:47,320 --> 00:24:50,120
but all that licensing
of the Gucci name,
378
00:24:50,122 --> 00:24:53,123
it brought in tens of millions
in sales.
379
00:24:53,125 --> 00:24:57,094
So, by shutting it down, the
company starts hemorrhaging money.
380
00:24:57,096 --> 00:25:01,232
The company is in crisis. They can't pay
their bills, they can't make their payroll.
381
00:25:01,234 --> 00:25:04,001
They are really,
really strapped.
382
00:25:04,003 --> 00:25:07,338
At the same time, Maurizio
is still living this lavish life,
383
00:25:07,340 --> 00:25:12,276
with multiple homes, Ferraris,
and he's racked up 40 million in debt.
384
00:25:12,278 --> 00:25:14,945
And he's now facing bankruptcy.
385
00:25:19,918 --> 00:25:23,687
[Elaine] Ultimately, Maurizio
is forced to sell the company
386
00:25:23,689 --> 00:25:26,323
before his vision
could come to life.
387
00:25:26,325 --> 00:25:31,362
And for the first time, Gucci is
no longer owned by the Guccis.
388
00:25:32,297 --> 00:25:34,832
On the one hand,
he received the lot of money
389
00:25:34,834 --> 00:25:38,402
so you could argue that he was,
you know, financially independently.
390
00:25:38,404 --> 00:25:43,908
On the other hand, he had lost
everything that really meant to him.
391
00:25:43,910 --> 00:25:47,111
[Sara] When he loses the
company, Patrizia was apoplectic
392
00:25:47,113 --> 00:25:51,215
because she had always aspired
to be la Signora Gucci.
393
00:25:51,217 --> 00:25:55,219
And here, you know, her Gucci
doesn't even own Gucci anymore.
394
00:25:56,021 --> 00:25:59,924
[Elaine] By selling Gucci
for nearly $200 million.
395
00:25:59,926 --> 00:26:04,328
Maurizio was once again flush
with cash and he started to spend it.
396
00:26:04,330 --> 00:26:08,299
[Sara] So the magistrate Nocerino is
really looking through all of Maurizio's
397
00:26:08,301 --> 00:26:12,002
business dealings, he's
looking at the casino that he was
398
00:26:12,004 --> 00:26:15,172
surveying, you know,
as a possible investment.
399
00:26:15,174 --> 00:26:20,010
Broadly, at all of the people that
could have been the potential killer.
400
00:26:20,012 --> 00:26:23,380
[Dan] Nocerino's investigation
is exhaustive.
401
00:26:23,382 --> 00:26:27,084
But, the wire taps on the Gucci
family have so far come up empty
402
00:26:27,086 --> 00:26:32,423
and Maurizio's business dealings,
while complex, seem to be above board.
403
00:26:32,425 --> 00:26:36,193
But he learns that Maurizio's
personal life is rife with drama
404
00:26:36,195 --> 00:26:39,129
as he pursues
new romantic interests.
405
00:26:40,899 --> 00:26:45,903
[Sara] Paola Franchi is part of
this Italian Milanese social scene
406
00:26:45,905 --> 00:26:48,772
She's the daughter of
a, of a wealthy family.
407
00:26:48,774 --> 00:26:53,043
And she's tall, thin, she's
blonde, she's got real elegance.
408
00:26:53,045 --> 00:26:57,047
So, Paola is everything
that Patrizia is not.
409
00:26:57,049 --> 00:26:59,416
[Dan] Even though they were
separated for years,
410
00:26:59,418 --> 00:27:05,089
Patrizia never let go of her perceived
spot in the social elite of Milan.
411
00:27:05,091 --> 00:27:08,292
Position meant everything
to her.
412
00:27:08,294 --> 00:27:11,028
Patrizia still felt
that she was Mrs. Gucci.
413
00:27:11,030 --> 00:27:14,098
She was introducing herself
as Mrs. Gucci.
414
00:27:14,100 --> 00:27:16,133
[Dan] Maurizio has clearly
moved on.
415
00:27:16,135 --> 00:27:19,236
He buys a fabulous, enormous
apartment on the best street
416
00:27:19,238 --> 00:27:22,706
in the best neighborhood
of Milan, Corso Venezia.
417
00:27:22,708 --> 00:27:25,309
And moves in with Paola Franchi.
418
00:27:44,095 --> 00:27:48,032
[Dan] Then one night, out of the
blue, police receive a phone call.
419
00:27:48,034 --> 00:27:52,069
A man at a hotel bar has struck
up a conversation with a stranger
420
00:27:52,071 --> 00:27:54,271
and heard a bizarre story.
421
00:27:54,673 --> 00:27:56,273
[Nocerino speaking]
422
00:28:26,004 --> 00:28:29,840
Investigators interrogate the man
who identifies four people in the plot
423
00:28:29,842 --> 00:28:31,742
to kill Maurizio Gucci.
424
00:28:31,744 --> 00:28:36,013
A pizzeria owner, a mechanic,
a porter at a cheap hotel
425
00:28:36,015 --> 00:28:39,349
and a psychic named
Pina Auriemma.
426
00:28:46,091 --> 00:28:48,225
Armed with information
from a whistleblower,
427
00:28:48,227 --> 00:28:51,428
Nocerino and his team
begin following Pina Auriemma
428
00:28:51,430 --> 00:28:55,966
and her alleged accomplices, wiretapping
their phones and tracking their cars.
429
00:29:04,342 --> 00:29:08,078
[Sara] Nocerino acquires
the car where the accomplices
430
00:29:08,080 --> 00:29:10,681
are talking about the murder
and the money
431
00:29:10,683 --> 00:29:13,217
that they're getting and
they're, they haven't been paid.
432
00:29:13,219 --> 00:29:16,887
So they're talking about trying to
get more money for what they did.
433
00:29:16,889 --> 00:29:21,658
Nocerino quickly learns the identities
of the four accomplices in the murder.
434
00:29:21,660 --> 00:29:24,962
It's Pina Auriemma
who is Patrizia's friend,
435
00:29:24,964 --> 00:29:27,097
who goes to her friend,
436
00:29:27,099 --> 00:29:28,665
who then goes to his friend,
437
00:29:28,667 --> 00:29:30,167
Benedetto Ceraulo,
438
00:29:30,169 --> 00:29:31,869
who is the killer,
439
00:29:31,871 --> 00:29:33,237
who goes to the other guy
440
00:29:33,239 --> 00:29:35,139
who is running a pizzeria.
441
00:29:36,341 --> 00:29:38,876
It's a very random group
of people
442
00:29:38,878 --> 00:29:41,078
who all come together
in this pact.
443
00:29:41,080 --> 00:29:42,513
[speaking in Italian]
444
00:30:08,406 --> 00:30:11,842
So, Nocerino rounds up
the four accomplices.
445
00:30:11,844 --> 00:30:13,043
He brings them in.
446
00:30:13,045 --> 00:30:14,745
He interviews them all.
447
00:30:14,747 --> 00:30:16,446
[speaking in Italian]
448
00:30:22,954 --> 00:30:24,688
As Nocerino interrogates
the suspects,
449
00:30:24,690 --> 00:30:27,424
a complicated story unravels.
450
00:30:27,426 --> 00:30:30,961
Beginning with Patrizia and
Maurizio's broken marriage.
451
00:30:30,963 --> 00:30:33,463
[speaking in Italian]
452
00:30:44,209 --> 00:30:46,109
[Dan] Patrizia became fixated
453
00:30:46,111 --> 00:30:48,245
on Maurizio's new girlfriend,
Paola Franchi,
454
00:30:48,247 --> 00:30:49,646
and what that might mean
455
00:30:49,648 --> 00:30:51,315
for her own extravagant
lifestyle.
456
00:30:52,317 --> 00:30:55,152
[Sara] There was no way that
Patrizia wanted to see
457
00:30:55,154 --> 00:30:58,288
somebody else become
La Signora Gucci.
458
00:30:58,290 --> 00:31:00,991
She was determined
and always would be
459
00:31:00,993 --> 00:31:02,359
La Signora Gucci.
460
00:31:03,261 --> 00:31:05,028
The investigators learned
461
00:31:05,030 --> 00:31:06,897
Patrizia's hatred
462
00:31:06,899 --> 00:31:08,432
seems to have spilled over
463
00:31:08,434 --> 00:31:11,001
into open bloodlust.
464
00:31:12,871 --> 00:31:14,538
[speaking in Italian]
465
00:31:19,277 --> 00:31:22,145
This hatred grows
into an obsession,
466
00:31:22,147 --> 00:31:23,881
which then grows into this
467
00:31:23,883 --> 00:31:26,516
determination to see him dead.
468
00:31:27,218 --> 00:31:28,886
And she goes around Milan,
469
00:31:28,888 --> 00:31:30,921
openly telling people,
470
00:31:30,923 --> 00:31:32,856
"Who is going to kill Maurizio
for me?"
471
00:31:32,858 --> 00:31:34,391
She says this at dinner parties.
472
00:31:39,163 --> 00:31:41,298
[speaking in Italian]
473
00:31:49,941 --> 00:31:52,075
[speaking in Italian]
474
00:32:01,686 --> 00:32:03,987
[Pietro speaking in English]
475
00:32:15,066 --> 00:32:18,035
[Sara] Patrizia is having
phone conversations with Pina.
476
00:32:18,037 --> 00:32:19,403
And they are talking about,
477
00:32:19,405 --> 00:32:22,172
you know, how much money
the killers need to be paid.
478
00:32:22,174 --> 00:32:23,907
They were also very clever.
479
00:32:23,909 --> 00:32:26,944
So, they were talking about
how many meters of fabric
480
00:32:26,946 --> 00:32:28,946
they needed to buy and, so,
481
00:32:28,948 --> 00:32:32,449
you know, the 10,000
or 30,000 or 40,000 lira
482
00:32:32,451 --> 00:32:35,052
was being talked about
in terms of how many feet
483
00:32:35,054 --> 00:32:37,654
of "stoffa"
for the new curtains.
484
00:32:37,656 --> 00:32:38,956
[speaking in Italian]
485
00:32:54,172 --> 00:32:56,340
[speaking in Italian]
486
00:33:14,225 --> 00:33:15,659
With Maurizio dead,
487
00:33:15,661 --> 00:33:18,762
Patrizia seized the chance
to reclaim her title
488
00:33:18,764 --> 00:33:21,264
of Lady Gucci.
489
00:33:21,266 --> 00:33:24,067
She went to the apartment where Maurizio
had been living with his girlfriend,
490
00:33:24,069 --> 00:33:25,335
Paola Franchi
491
00:33:25,337 --> 00:33:27,170
and kicked her out.
492
00:33:27,172 --> 00:33:30,640
She just stepped right back
into her life as Mrs. Gucci.
493
00:33:31,776 --> 00:33:34,177
She kicked Paola
out of the apartment.
494
00:33:34,179 --> 00:33:36,980
She didn't invite her
to the funeral.
495
00:33:36,982 --> 00:33:39,883
She really sent her packing
with no compassion.
496
00:33:39,885 --> 00:33:42,152
And she reclaimed him in death,
497
00:33:42,154 --> 00:33:45,222
in a way that she could not
in life.
498
00:33:45,224 --> 00:33:48,158
[Dan] But when the police
finally caught up with Patrizia,
499
00:33:48,160 --> 00:33:50,460
her days as Lady Gucci
were numbered.
500
00:33:52,163 --> 00:33:53,296
[Sara] After he hears the story,
501
00:33:53,298 --> 00:33:55,332
Nocerino realizes that
502
00:33:55,334 --> 00:33:57,234
it's time to go for Patrizia.
503
00:33:58,903 --> 00:34:00,037
Patrizia was at home,
504
00:34:00,039 --> 00:34:01,838
asleep with her two daughters,
505
00:34:01,840 --> 00:34:04,341
when the police arrived
outside her door.
506
00:34:05,176 --> 00:34:07,077
They showed up at her doorstep
507
00:34:07,079 --> 00:34:08,512
at 4:30 in the morning,
508
00:34:08,514 --> 00:34:11,181
and they say, "Signora Reggiani,
509
00:34:11,183 --> 00:34:12,215
you're under arrest
510
00:34:12,217 --> 00:34:15,018
for the murder
of Maurizio Gucci."
511
00:34:15,020 --> 00:34:17,187
[speaking in Italian]
512
00:34:34,972 --> 00:34:37,841
She asked for few minutes
to go and get ready.
513
00:34:37,843 --> 00:34:42,179
And she comes back, and she
is wearing a full fur mink coat,
514
00:34:42,181 --> 00:34:44,648
dark sunglasses and she says,
"I'm ready to go."
515
00:34:45,883 --> 00:34:47,517
[speaking in Italian]
516
00:34:56,227 --> 00:34:58,161
[in English]
517
00:35:00,331 --> 00:35:04,067
News of Patrizia's arrest
causes a sensation.
518
00:35:04,735 --> 00:35:06,002
This is, like, the new Dallas,
519
00:35:06,004 --> 00:35:08,305
like, you know,
this is the Gucci drama,
520
00:35:08,307 --> 00:35:11,007
and the twists and turns
were just really unthinkable.
521
00:35:11,009 --> 00:35:13,844
She is the Vedova Nera,
the black widow,
522
00:35:13,846 --> 00:35:16,213
which literally means,
"The evil widow."
523
00:35:16,581 --> 00:35:17,814
We were shocked.
524
00:35:17,816 --> 00:35:20,317
You can hate your husband,
525
00:35:24,922 --> 00:35:28,992
Him being the father of two
daughters that they both loved,
526
00:35:28,994 --> 00:35:32,195
and I never thought that
the wife could reach the point
527
00:35:32,197 --> 00:35:33,396
of killing him.
528
00:35:33,398 --> 00:35:35,165
I never thought
that would be the case.
529
00:35:36,100 --> 00:35:38,502
The trial starts in May, 1998.
530
00:35:38,504 --> 00:35:40,437
The eyes of the world
are on this courtroom.
531
00:35:40,439 --> 00:35:41,805
It's a media frenzy,
532
00:35:41,807 --> 00:35:44,074
and Nocerino, the prosecutor,
533
00:35:44,076 --> 00:35:47,244
decides to pursue
a life sentence for Patrizia.
534
00:35:47,879 --> 00:35:49,479
Patrizia takes the stand
535
00:35:49,481 --> 00:35:50,914
in her own defense,
536
00:35:50,916 --> 00:35:54,251
and denies involvement
in the plot to kill Maurizio.
537
00:35:54,253 --> 00:35:57,087
[speaking in Italian]
538
00:36:00,458 --> 00:36:03,326
We made the, a lot of, uh...
539
00:36:05,530 --> 00:36:07,430
But, I didn't give
540
00:36:07,432 --> 00:36:10,167
the order of killing Maurizio.
541
00:36:11,936 --> 00:36:13,503
[speaking in Italian]
542
00:36:40,932 --> 00:36:42,332
[Dan] The murder
of Maurizio Gucci
543
00:36:42,334 --> 00:36:45,068
had captured the attention
of the world.
544
00:36:45,070 --> 00:36:47,070
And now Patrizia's fate
545
00:36:47,072 --> 00:36:48,505
was in the jury's hands.
546
00:36:52,410 --> 00:36:53,777
[Dan] After a six month trial,
547
00:36:53,779 --> 00:36:55,979
and seven hours
of jury deliberation,
548
00:36:55,981 --> 00:36:58,348
Patrizia Reggiani Gucci
is found guilty
549
00:36:58,350 --> 00:37:00,250
of the premeditated murder
550
00:37:00,252 --> 00:37:02,185
of her husband, Maurizio,
551
00:37:02,187 --> 00:37:04,654
and sentenced to 29 years
in prison.
552
00:37:05,389 --> 00:37:06,690
[speaking in Italian]
553
00:37:19,637 --> 00:37:21,338
[speaking in Italian]
554
00:37:36,454 --> 00:37:37,921
[Elaine] As she leaves
the courtroom,
555
00:37:37,923 --> 00:37:41,958
Maurizio and Patrizia's friends
and family are left stunned.
556
00:37:43,327 --> 00:37:46,630
I was just so sad and upset
by his death.
557
00:37:46,632 --> 00:37:49,165
But I still, to this day,
558
00:37:49,167 --> 00:37:51,935
ask myself why it has happened.
559
00:37:52,436 --> 00:37:54,671
Patrizia became so jealous
560
00:37:54,673 --> 00:37:57,374
that that jealousy went beyond
561
00:37:57,376 --> 00:38:00,343
any reasonable behavior
that I would have anticipated.
562
00:38:01,445 --> 00:38:03,413
[Sara] It was all about
the money.
563
00:38:03,415 --> 00:38:07,050
And at the end when she was
convicted and sentenced, the judge said,
564
00:38:07,052 --> 00:38:08,785
"Maurizio Gucci died,
565
00:38:08,787 --> 00:38:11,321
not for the man he was,
but for what he had."
566
00:38:14,659 --> 00:38:17,827
[Dan] To this day, Patrizia
still denies her role in the killing.
567
00:38:17,829 --> 00:38:19,963
She says it was
a misunderstanding.
568
00:38:19,965 --> 00:38:22,265
That she didn't know
it would happen.
569
00:38:22,267 --> 00:38:24,167
She's expressed her sorrow,
570
00:38:24,169 --> 00:38:26,536
but she's never accepted
the blame.
571
00:38:27,938 --> 00:38:29,306
But, in our exclusive interview,
572
00:38:29,308 --> 00:38:32,042
she did tell us
how she really felt
573
00:38:32,044 --> 00:38:34,577
that grey windy morning in 1995.
574
00:38:35,880 --> 00:38:37,314
[Patrizia speaking]
575
00:39:09,847 --> 00:39:12,248
Patrizia would spend 18 years
576
00:39:12,250 --> 00:39:15,085
in Milan's San Vittore Prison.
577
00:39:16,187 --> 00:39:19,322
[Patrizia] They told me
I will stay here
578
00:39:19,324 --> 00:39:20,657
just a few days.
579
00:39:20,958 --> 00:39:22,325
Then,
580
00:39:22,327 --> 00:39:26,196
this period was a little longer.
581
00:39:26,198 --> 00:39:28,465
That's why I organized myself.
582
00:39:29,066 --> 00:39:30,533
In the sense that...
583
00:39:31,302 --> 00:39:33,570
[speaking in Italian]
584
00:39:35,873 --> 00:39:39,509
I had a ferret
and this helped me
585
00:39:39,977 --> 00:39:42,011
as pet therapy.
586
00:39:43,214 --> 00:39:44,514
[Elaine] Fascinatingly enough,
587
00:39:44,516 --> 00:39:47,016
Patrizia wasn't alone
in this jail.
588
00:39:47,485 --> 00:39:49,152
[speaking in English]
589
00:39:56,327 --> 00:39:57,961
[speaking in Italian]
590
00:39:58,396 --> 00:40:00,230
Today, Patrizia
is out of prison,
591
00:40:00,232 --> 00:40:02,499
but the drama in her life
isn't over.
592
00:40:02,501 --> 00:40:05,168
She's been trapped in
lawsuits, first with her mother,
593
00:40:05,170 --> 00:40:06,803
and then her daughters.
594
00:40:06,805 --> 00:40:09,873
She says that they
wrongly took money from her
595
00:40:09,875 --> 00:40:12,342
while she was in prison
for the death of their father.
596
00:40:13,878 --> 00:40:15,245
I am still Gucci.
597
00:40:16,080 --> 00:40:18,948
And maybe...
598
00:40:18,950 --> 00:40:22,218
the last one that, uh...
599
00:40:22,286 --> 00:40:23,453
is alive.
600
00:40:25,322 --> 00:40:27,991
Two years ago,
Patrizia's daughter
601
00:40:27,993 --> 00:40:31,861
ended all contact
with their mother.
602
00:40:31,863 --> 00:40:35,098
Patrizia doesn't have
any relationship now
603
00:40:35,100 --> 00:40:36,499
with her daughters.
604
00:40:38,836 --> 00:40:41,638
[Elaine] Patrizia still
lives in Milan today,
605
00:40:41,640 --> 00:40:43,339
where she can be spotted
around town
606
00:40:43,341 --> 00:40:45,108
with her pet parrot.
607
00:40:46,977 --> 00:40:48,978
[Patrizia] I think that money
608
00:40:48,980 --> 00:40:50,647
can buy happiness.
609
00:40:51,382 --> 00:40:54,984
It's better to cry
in a Rolls-Royce
610
00:40:55,286 --> 00:40:57,387
than cry on a bicycle.
611
00:40:59,123 --> 00:41:00,590
[Nocerino speaking]
612
00:41:38,329 --> 00:41:39,662
[Andrea] If Gucci is
613
00:41:39,664 --> 00:41:42,198
the success story
that it is today,
614
00:41:42,200 --> 00:41:43,299
you have to
615
00:41:43,301 --> 00:41:48,037
give to Maurizio
a very important credit.
616
00:41:48,039 --> 00:41:50,907
He had the vision of where
the company was going.
617
00:41:50,909 --> 00:41:53,276
And even though he was not
at the helm anymore,
618
00:41:53,278 --> 00:41:54,444
it was his vision
619
00:41:54,446 --> 00:41:56,679
that was ultimately
accomplished.
620
00:42:10,294 --> 00:42:12,262
It's a crazy story.
621
00:42:12,264 --> 00:42:14,998
What they said about me
is not true.
622
00:42:15,866 --> 00:42:17,033
[sighs]
623
00:42:17,035 --> 00:42:18,167
