TL;DR Summary

Italy's highest court has ordered a new trial for two American tourists, Finnegan Lee Elder and Gabriel Christian Natale-Hjorth, over the 2019 killing of a police officer in Rome. Elder was found guilty of murder, but the court ordered a new trial due to insufficiently corroborated allegations. Natale-Hjorth will stand trial again because there was not enough evidence of his complicity in the killing. The two tourists were convicted in 2021 and sentenced to life terms, which were later reduced.
