"One million euros is how much we have estimated Filippo Turetta will have to reimburse Giulia's family" . This was stated by the lawyer Nicodemo Gentile who represents the civil party Elena Cecchettin , sister of the Venetian girl killed by her ex-boyfriend in the autumn of 2023. "The estimate - the lawyer specified - is based on the "tables" of Justice".
Turetta's trial opened today at the Venice courthouse. The defendant was not present in the courtroom, while Gino Cecchettin, Giulia's father, was present : "Today - he explained on the sidelines of the hearing that sees Turetta on trial for premeditated murder - is a day of great pain, like all the other days. This morning at home I didn't talk about the trial, I greeted everyone like every day and I came here where I am sure that the judge, the panel, will be able to judge what happened with the right sentence that will be established by the jury".
Again, Cecchettin said, "I don't care if it will be a quick or long process, even if for me it's a bloodbath, I'm absolutely not well: every day I think about Giulia."
Asked how he would react if he were to meet Filippo, Gino replied: "I don't fear his presence in the courtroom, if he comes it will be his choice, nothing more."
Again: " I haven't heard from the Turettas for a long time, but there's no hard feelings, we all have our faults . If they write to me I always answer. The last time I heard from them was a long time ago, when the rumors about Filippo's interrogation in prison came out. Now I'm carrying on the battle that my daughter Elena started - Gino concluded - with the Foundation that is based on Giulia's values".
