Patrizia Reggiani was arrested in 1997, and in 1998 she was convicted of arranging the murder of her ex husband, Maurizio Gucci, and sentenced to 29 years in prison. Reggiani became known as the “Black Widow” in the media, and the killing gained a huge interest. Her daughters asked that her conviction be overturned, claiming her brain tumor had affected her personality. In 2000, an appeals court in Milan upheld the conviction and reduced the sentence to 26 years. That same year, Reggiani tried to commit suicide by hanging herself with a shoelace, but was rescued.
