Filippo Turetta confessed to the murder of Giulia Cecchettin. He did so on Tuesday morning, issuing spontaneous statements to the investigating judge of Venice Benedetta Vitolo at the end of the interrogation, during which he had exercised the right not to answer.
THE INTERROGATION. From what was known, in the few minutes in which he remained before the investigating judge the young man was in tears and in particular he cried before being taken away, when the interrogation ended, to the Verona prison.
Philip would have said he was repentant and ready to serve the full sentence for what he had done. But he would never mention his ex-girlfriend's name and would imply that he had had some sort of mental blackout.
The certainty, as clarified by the lawyer Giovanni Caruso who then remained with the 21-year-old for an interview, is that "no request will be presented to the Review" against the detention order in prison, "nor will any relaxation of the measure be requested" .
In Verona Turetta will move from the infirmary department to the "protected" section in a few days , for even greater protection than the other inmates, after he has finished psychological and psychiatric visits and evaluations. Those who look after him describe his "calm" attitude. He's "fine", said the defender. He wants to read and see his parents as soon as possible.
The defense could bet everything on a request for a psychiatric evaluation, a move that could be preceded by the choice not to speak immediately before the judge.
THINGS TO BE CLARIFIED – Among the points to be clarified are those that concern the possible planning of the crime: more clues, including the adhesive tape bought online a few days before and the fact that the young man would have brought two knives with him.
