Le intercettazioni tra Berlusconi e Tarantini: "Stasera ho due bambine"

The Constitutional Court has ruled: the principle that "prostitution is lawful, but those who exploit it must be punished" has been declared in line with the Constitution. Questions of legitimacy on this issue had been raised during the Bari appeal trial regarding the escorts hired by Giampaolo Tarantini to Silvio Berlusconi's residences. The trial, which in the first instance had seen four defendants convicted of recruiting and aiding prostitution, had been suspended pending the Constitutional Court's ruling.
