Antonio Avola, 66, went on trial for sexually assaulting student, 17, but judge rules grope too fleeting to be a crime
An Italian judge has provoked outrage after clearing a school caretaker of groping a teenage girl because the sexual assault only lasted “a handful of seconds”.
The case relates to a 17-year-old student at a school in Rome who described being groped by the caretaker as she walked up a staircase with a friend.
