He hit his mother with numerous stab wounds , which proved fatal to 69-year-old Paola De Vincentiis. Her killer is her son Cristiano who has already been arrested for voluntary murder.

The crime took place yesterday morning in Bucchianico, in the province of Chieti, in the house where mother and son lived, perhaps at the height of a quarrel. It was the 50-year-old who gave the alarm: he gave the intercom to a neighbor who, when he saw him bloody and with a knife in his hand, fell ill , then he called 118 and the carabinieri. When the rescuers arrived on the scene, the woman was on the ground, now lifeless.

A family that, it is said in the village, had some difficulties: the victim used to ask for money, especially from the parish priest and rector of the sanctuary of San Camillo, Father Germano Santone, saying that the money was for his son: the man went around on a large-displacement motorcycle despite the functionality problem of one arm, resulting from a road accident.

The victim, originally from Lanciano, together with a sister who was at home at the time of the incident, and her son, had rented a house in the historic center of Bucchianico since last July.
