Mario Roggero, a jeweler, spent his first night at the Milanese prison of Bollate, where he was assigned to the fifth ward. According to the sources, the day cells are open and Roggero moves around the common area together with the other detainees, beginning a process of settling into the facility. Roggero himself stated his intention to devote himself to cooking and to studying English during his detention period. While some organizational rigidities typical of the prison regime were noted, the detainee is reportedly showing an attitude of adaptation. The case concerns Roggero's entry into prison following the judicial proceedings that led to his custody or sentence enforcement at the Bollate facility, an institution known for its reintegration programs and a prison regime generally considered less strict compared to other facilities.
