Emanuele Compagno, Filippo Turetta's lawyer, renounces his mandate: «I consider my work as a public defender concluded with Turetta's arrival in Italy - he said - even if he himself had appointed me as his trusted defender. Now the trial will move forward. From the beginning I told the family that a trusted lawyer would be needed, and I filed the waiver." Turetta's defender therefore remains the lawyer Giovanni Caruso.

Yesterday the young man who killed his ex-girlfriend Giulia Cecchettin arrived at the Verona prison . The interrogation will take place on Tuesday before the investigating judge during which perhaps he will decide to confess and collaborate.

«He is very, very tired, disoriented, even though I managed to have an acceptably understandable conversation with him and he is in acceptable health conditions», explained the lawyer Giovanni Caruso, after the first interview. The boy, he added, «did not say essentially anything, we did not discuss the details. Faced with such a dramatic and tragic event, there was a moment of mutual presentation."

Unkempt beard, silent, with a resigned and resigned attitude, absent eyes and completely disinterested in what was happening around him. This is how Turetta appeared to the agents of the Service for International Police Cooperation who took him over from the German authorities in Frankfurt. He was handcuffed at the hands and feet, as is the practice for security reasons in Germany for the extradition of prisoners who might make reckless gestures and who are considered dangerous.

In prison in Halle he had already said, essentially: "I killed my girlfriend, I wanted to kill myself but I didn't have the courage."

He will now be monitored 24 hours a day to avoid self-harm.
