Emanuela Setti Carraro

Emanuela Setti Carraro (9 October 1950 in Borgosesia – 3 September 1982 in Palermo) was an Italian nurse, and wife of General Carlo Alberto Dalla Chiesa. Less than two months after the marriage, she was the victim of a Mafia AK-47 attack that also killed her husband and the escorting officer, Domenico Russo. She was honored with the Medaglia d'oro al merito della Croce Rossa Italiana (Gold Medal of Merita from the Italian Red Cross) and Medaglia al merito della sanità pubblica (Public Health Medal of Merit).[1][2][3][4]
