Life imprisonment for Gabriel Falloni , 36, from Sorso , confessed to the murder of Elena Raluca Serban, a 32-year-old Romanian escort in Aosta, in an apartment he had rented.
The psychiatric report has ascertained Falloni's ability to understand and will and the Aosta Court of Assizes accepted the request of the Public Prosecutor, inflicting the penalty of life imprisonment.
THE CRIME
Falloni, who had specific precedents for sexual violence, killed the woman on the evening of April 17, 2021 to avoid being reported after having robbed her of 8 thousand euros, hence the first aggravating circumstance, that of futile reasons . He also stabbed her in the throat even though she was already unconscious after the strangulation, hence the second aggravating circumstance, that of cruelty .
THE DEFENCE
The defense had focused on a " partial defect of mind " by producing a partisan technical advice that describes a partial inability to understand and want. Falloni told investigators that he shook his hands around the woman's neck after being mocked for her dysfunction, after paying her for sexual intercourse.
THE CAPTURE
Before confessing to the crime he had been framed by the condominium cameras and telephone records. The police had arrested him in Nus (Aosta), where he lived, when the 36-year-old returned from a few days' escape to Genoa.
