Two years later he implemented the same plan: he barricaded himself in the house holding his wife hostage.
The protagonist of yet another episode is a retired policeman, on leave since 2011, with depression problems in recent times. Today he handed himself over to Pavullo after a long negotiation with the Carabinieri mediators and with his lawyer, Cosimo Zaccaria, the same one who contributed to the positive outcome of the case in 2022.
This morning the 70-year-old locked himself in his home, he had an illegally possessed gun with him and it is not yet clear how he obtained it. After what happened two years ago, he was reported and the weapons he regularly had were taken away from him, and his gun license was revoked.
Now he will probably be entrusted to a healthcare facility and we are evaluating whether to subject him to some measures.
The man reportedly reported hallucinations he had during the night and expressed his intention to take his own life several times, but often said incoherent phrases. His wife would never have been threatened and tried to dissuade him and calm him down. «A miracle has been accomplished. He is a person in need of care and in the next few hours we will understand if we can immediately place him in an assistance center and prevent him from being sent to prison because it is a very precarious balance situation", said the lawyer Zaccaria.
The 70-year-old was arrested.
