    A murder charge is a minimum sentence of 21 years up to life if it had aggravating circumstances like premeditation.

    So I guess this means you can be convicted of murder and femicide now and serve double life sentences. What does it accomplish practically aside from responding politically to the murder of that Giulia girl?
