Romina Vento is drowned by her companion in the Adda river.

This was confirmed by the autopsy on the body of the 44-year-old woman killed by Carlo Fumagalli a week ago in Fara Gera d'Adda, in the province of Bergamo, after a dispute over the end of their relationship .
The examination was carried out yesterday in the morgue of the Papa Giovanni XXIII hospital in Bergamo by the medical examiner of the University of Pavia Luca Tajana, who reserved the right to file the results in 60 days, but it is already certain that the victim is dead by drowning and no further injuries emerged.

Fumagalli himself had confessed to having drowned her at the height of a quarrel while the two were traveling in their white Renault Megane, driven by the man who works as a worker at Visconti di Modrone in Vaprio d'Adda (Milan).

THE RECONSTRUCTION - On Tuesday 19 April at 9.30 pm Fumagalli showed up in front of the Pastificio Annoni in Fara d'Adda, where his partner had worked for years, to accompany her home. A colleague also went out with her, to whom Carlo gave a lift home, as had already happened. The witness explained to the investigators that he did not notice anything strange.

Everything would happen later . A terrible quarrel broke out between the two, because the woman had said she wanted to leave him. "Do you really want to leave me?", "Yes", would have been the last sentences they exchanged in the car before the 49-year-old threw himself into the car into the river with his partner.

In the impact, however, neither of the two died, also because the water was low. At that point the woman opened the door and started screaming , with the screams that were also heard by some boys who were training in a nearby soccer field. It is at that point that the companion - as emerged from the interrogation and now also from the autopsy - held her head under water , drowning her. Then he escaped by swimming, coming out of the river on the Milanese shore where he was traced, in a confused state, three hours later.

On the following night in front of the carabinieri and the prosecutor he collapsed and confessed to the crime . Admitted to psychiatry for threatening suicide, the investigating judge who validated his arrest ordered his custody in prison pending trial.

The couple had two children aged 10 and 15, now in the care of their maternal grandmother. He, with a clean record, is also the father of a third child from a first relationship 29 years ago.
