In November 1995, a teenage cousin of hers with psychiatric problems accused her whole family of abusing her, claiming that Angela had also been a victim. Just like that, without even investigating the matter in detail, a social worker and two carabinieri took her from school and brought her to a center for victims of child abuse. A psychologist asked Angela to draw a ghost. The psychologist thought the ghost looked like a phallus. Then a gynecologist—Dr. Maggioni again—speculated that Angela presented signs of sexual violence.
