When he showed up at the emergency room in Atri with his 58-year-old mother full of bruises and fractures, he told the doctors that she had fallen down the stairs but the truth is that it was he who punched and beat her until she was reduced to that condition. After ending up on trial accused of domestic abuse, the 27-year-old from Cermignano, who was still detained under house arrest, was sentenced to 3 years in prison and will now be able to finish serving his sentence with community service.
Even before this event happened, mother and son were both being treated at Villa Serena, but their coexistence within the home was not easy and things had gotten worse towards the end of 2020, after the father’s death. The 27-year-old, as his defender, the lawyer Giuseppe Olivieri, repeatedly revealed during the hearing, would have been suffering from a previous pathology and yet nothing emerged regarding a possible incompatibility from the new psychiatric evaluation requested by the court during the trial. with the prison regime, much less on its social danger.
TO UNDERSTAND AND WILL
Furthermore, it was also established that the accused was capable of understanding and will at the time of the crime committed. Following yet another physical violence used against her mother after an argument, the 58-year-old was hospitalized and had to undergo maxillofacial surgery with a subsequent prognosis of 40 days. In her house, the 27-year-old apparently often had outbursts of anger which then became more and more frequent towards her mother.
THE DOCTOR
The investigation was triggered by a doctor from the emergency room in Atri where the woman arrived accompanied by her son in March last year. In fact, after examining her, the doctor called the police according to the pink code protocol, suspecting that she had been the victim of mistreatment. When two patrols arrived at the scene, she then collapsed and told the truth. On one of the 27-year-old’s hands there were still marks from the punches he had given his mother, photographed and ended up in the trial file. However, no one took part in the trial as a civil party.
