On January 2nd two years ago she was found on the seafront of Torre del Greco, in the Neapolitan area, with her dead son in her arms. “I was the one who threw him into the sea because he was sick,” she told the investigators, still in a state of confusion. According to the defense, the woman had become depressed after giving birth, she had memory lapses and perhaps she didn’t even know what she had done. The Court of Assizes of Naples today acquitted her of the charge of premeditated murder because it was deemed not to be capable of understanding and will, and therefore not attributable. The judge therefore ordered the security measure of probation, for no less than 15 years, in a rehabilitation facility and will file the reasons for the sentence within 90 days. Gisa was acquitted because she is a sick person, said her lawyer Salvatore Del Giudice. «The psychiatric reports that helped the judges to enter Gisa’s mind and shed light on her pathology were fundamental for today’s verdict», commented clinical criminologist and party consultant Alessandra Bramante. The pain is too strong for her husband, and father of little Francesco, who has not forgiven his wife. «You must die, you are a murderer», she vented her anger at the reading of the verdict, with the Court still present, in room 115 of the New Palace of Justice in Naples, before wishing her bad luck. He was the man, in January 2022, who called the police to find his wife and son.
