The Siena prosecutor’s office only a few days ago opened a case for incitement to suicide. There is a woman under investigation. At the time, an autopsy was not performed, nor was the vehicle seized. Daniela, however, does not only speak as a mother, because behind the belief that it was a murder, she brings some elements.
«When I heard about what happened – he says – I didn’t have the strength to react. I only said that Simone wasn’t capable of tying a slipknot. In the morgue I was afraid to see the scar on my neck, so I barely uncovered the cloth. My husband did it and that mark was just an inch and a half. It didn’t even reach the back of the head. Furthermore, at the base of the neck and not near the throat.” Details that flow quickly, almost as if to vent the accumulated anger.
«The feet – he continues – touched the ground with the entire sole. Furthermore, the sides of the truck were closed and you couldn’t do anything from inside, while the cabin was all upside down. He also had shoes and glasses on his head. He usually drove barefoot. Then the strap that held him was too large and unsuitable for a similar gesture.” A few days before his death, which occurred on July 27, 2022, Casini had decided to change jobs, moving out of Tuscany.
«He was returning from Campi Bisenzio – says his mother – he had already taken a break after 13 hours of driving. He had washed and changed. The area where he was found, among other things, was only part of his outward journey. On the way back he usually took other routes.”
According to Daniela, someone therefore arranged to meet her son in that place. “There must have been more than one – specifies the woman – one person alone would not have been able to overpower Simone”.
A passage that connects to the parallel story that forms the backdrop to the tragedy. The man had been in a long-distance relationship, through chats and phone calls, with a Spanish woman for about 8 years. A certain Enriquetta, a 28 year old nurse. A figure that never existed in reality. «Every time I talked about the story he got angry. Then there were several people who intervened, commenting on the posts Simone made with fake profiles. A few hours after his death, however, all this material disappeared.”
Presences that had worried him, even if on social media he implied that he believed in that relationship. «On July 2 they heard him talking to the police. He realized that the situation was starting to get serious. Threats also appeared on social media profiles. Maybe he didn’t want us to worry, but it makes me angry that he didn’t speak. He thought he would solve it alone, but it didn’t go that way.”
If Enriquetta was pure fantasy, the withdrawals made by Casini were not. Even 1,500 euros per month and 15 thousand euros in the last two. Others he had asked family members, claiming that it was a “matter of life and death”. «I thought he was a victim of usury, but he denied it to me. But there is no trace of all this money. It was probably blackmail». For the prosecutor’s office “at the moment no conduct characterized by the purpose of profit has emerged”.
Daniela and her husband Ivano met the prosecutor handling the case, Valentina Magnini, ten days ago. «Speaking of the missed autopsy, he told us that he relied both on the medical examiner and on 118», specifies Donna, who however now turns her gaze to the present: «I welcomed the investigation. I hope they want to investigate. Simone didn’t kill himself, it wasn’t like him to have done something like that.”
