Braghetti played an important role in the kidnapping of Aldo Moro. She was in charge of the food in the hideout - in a flat in Via Montalcini in Rome in her name, considered the most unsuspected of all - where the former president of the Christian Democrats, later assassinated by terrorists, was kept.

Then, as a sutler, she had become one of the most uncompromising militants of the terrorist organisation.

On 3 May 1979 he took part in an armedattack on the Christian Democratic Party headquarters in Piazza Nicosia, Rome, and two agents, Antonio Mea and Piero Ollanu, were killed that day. It was Braghetti, according to the judges, who opened fire together with another Brigatist

his name also remains linked to one of the bloodiest acts in the history of the Brigades: On 12 February 1980, together with Bruno Seghetti, Braghetti took part in the murder of the Vice-President of the Superior Council of the Magistracy, Vittorio Bachelet. Braghetti shot first.
