We are awaiting the results of the autopsies, currently underway at the Brotzu hospital in Cagliari, on three of the five victims of the family massacre that took place in Nuoro on Wednesday morning at the hands of Roberto Gleboni, the 52-year-old forestry worker who killed his wife Giusi Massetti, 43, their children Martina and Francesco, aged 25 and 10, and their neighbour Paolo Sanna, aged 69, before committing suicide himself after having struck his elderly mother who was hospitalised in the intensive care unit of the Nuoro hospital.

The coroner Roberto Demontis is performing the examination on the bodies of the murderer-suicide, Giusy Massetti and her daughter Martina. While the bodies of Francesco Gleboni and Paolo Sanna will be examined at a later time between today and tomorrow.

The couple's 14-year-old son escaped the massacre, and was interviewed yesterday by investigators in a protected hearing at the San Francesco hospital in Nuoro after undergoing surgery for being grazed by his father. As soon as investigators arrived at the house of horror, the boy opened the door and reportedly said: "Everyone in the house was screaming." The content of the protected hearing remains under strict confidentiality.

For this evening the Municipality of Nuoro has organized a torchlight procession starting from the house of the massacre, in via Ichnusa, to arrive at the Piazza Santa Maria della Neve in front of the cathedral.
