The 17-year-old Albanian teenager (he turns 18 in a few weeks), who allegedly killed a 42-year-old Romanian woman during an intimate meeting in Viadana, Mantova, Italy, has testified in detail what happened in the garage of his house, which he had returned to the gym.
According to what the Italian media reports (which, due to his age, have so far not even published the initials of the author's name), the young man strangled the woman "by squeezing her arm and forearm around her neck".
A wrestling move, perhaps one of those moves also tried for fun with training partners during martial arts training sessions, in the gym that was his soul's place: he went there even when he was sick.
If before arranging the paid meeting with Maria Campai "a random acquaintance on a dating site", the guy in prison accused of her murder, had searched the Internet for killing techniques with hand movements, once the report was finished and the evening On September 19, he implemented the plan he had been preparing for days.
Monday's session to assess the security measure did not change the judge's attitude towards the 17-year-old from Albania.
In the garage, in the morning scientific experts worked in search of new traces to consolidate the charges of the prosecution, after the boy tried in vain to remove blood stains and organic remains.
In any case, after initial cooperation with the investigators, he immediately pointed to the place, the garden of an uninhabited villa next door, where he allegedly buried Maria's body.
The 42-year-old woman of Romanian origin, divorced from her husband, mother of two children, was found under a layer of leaves and bushes.
Although, by the admission of his own lawyer, Paolo Antonini, there is or would be no motive behind the massacre.
Or rather, at the moment it would be sober programming based on various videos taken from the Internet and frantic execution in the garage as a link between thoughts and actions.
It all took a few seconds, the 17-year-old said. A few seconds of time and no hesitation. And in the following days, he didn't change his routine, didn't betray himself, didn't express worry or nervousness, didn't think of leaving Viadana, even less, thought of moving Maria's body.
Those who have lived with the 17-year-old, certainly starting with his family, have not noticed any special signs that would cause any concern.
The same situation at school, a professional institute that trains electricians, while he remembers how the 17-year-old has a habit, when among his peers, to withdraw, remain silent, choose not to interact, in short, to disappear.
His only escape route seems to have been that combat sport, with daily sweat to swell his muscles more and more and treating himself to portraits in pictures and videos to post on social channels for collected scattered likes.
An activity that then continued at home, equipped as a private gym with barbells and mirrors around the couch that awaited the meeting with Maria and her execution. There was no evidence of alcohol or drug use: the boy was completely sober.
