“He committed the murder of Giulia Tramontano and her son with unprecedented violence“This is how Milan’s deputy prosecutor, Letizia Mannella, forcefully defined it. Alessandro Impagniatiello confessed at the start of his trial this Monday that he had killed his partner – and his son -, that he had stabbed a total of 37 times.
Despite the brutality of the crime, he insists that Its objective was to induce an abortion in the young woman. 29 years old. For this he would have given rat poison for several weeks. When Giulia was 7 months pregnant, she committed the murder that shocked Italy.
The murder took place when she discovered he was leading a double life with another woman. Then he hid his body and wanted to give the impression that he had simply disappeared.
His defense asks for extenuating circumstances for the confessed murderer, such as an alleged personality disorder. “He’s gone crazy, he’s gone crazy…the monster he was was inside him“said Alessandro Impagniatiello’s mother.
But for the prosecution there is no doubt about premeditation, the request is life sentence with day solitary confinement for the first 18 months of the sentence. THE last sentence for this sexist crime the next one will come precisely November 25day for the elimination of violence against women.
