Livorno police service and leadership developments

Overview

In Livorno, Italy, the State Police have implemented new initiatives and leadership changes aimed at community engagement and specialized assistance.

In September 2026, the police established a partnership with neuropsychologist Maria Rosaria Liscio to assist the Volanti Section in managing interactions with elderly citizens suffering from Alzheimer’s disease or cognitive decline. This collaboration seeks to provide scientifically informed communication to reduce anxiety for disoriented individuals and their families.

By October 2026, Michele Abenante was appointed as the new Questore in Livorno, succeeding Giuseppina Stellino. Abenante has signaled a strategy of “proximity policing” and maintaining a “glass palace” approach to be more accessible to citizens, with a focus on addressing drug trafficking and predatory crimes.
