For several months, at least since December, Alessandro Impagnatiello had been attempting to poison Giulia Tramontano , his 29-year-old partner who was 7 months pregnant , with a rat poison dissolved in drinks. Finally he killed her on 27 May in Senago (Milan) with 37 stab wounds . The body, thrown near some garages, was found four days later.
These are the latest elements inserted by the carabinieri of the investigative unit in a report and which also result from the results of the autopsy consultancy filed with the Milan prosecutor's office, which revealed the presence of rat poison, "bromadiolone" both in the "blood and in the hair" of the mother and in the "fetal tissue and hair", even with an "increase", according to the document, of the administration "in the last month and a half".
The medico-legal investigations also revealed that Giulia, who had bled to death, was still alive after each stab wound.
The two most important elements of the analysis by the pool of experts, i.e. the presence of " bromadiolone " even in the fetus and the fact that Giulia was still alive after each of the stab wounds and that she died of "acute anemia" (consequently the little Thiago), reinforce the aggravating circumstances, disputed by the prosecutor, of "premeditation" and "cruelty".
Impgnatiello, a 30-year-old barman, led a double life and, according to the investigators, could have killed the other woman with whom he was having an affair . However, the 23-year-old, after meeting Giulia with whom a bond of solidarity was born, had not let him into the house that evening out of "fear".
The man last December had searched online why the poison was not having an effect , how long it took for it to act, only to discover that it lost potency when administered with "hot drinks". And Giulia, meanwhile, wrote, again in December, in some chats with a friend: "I feel like shit, I have too much heartburn (...) my stomach is killing me (...) I feel drugged". In January the bartender would go on to type, "How much rat poison does it take to kill one person." A couple of sachets of rodenticide were found by the carabinieri in his backpack and he recorded one of the many "lies", claiming that he had seen rats in the workplace. However, the coroners failed to provide precise data on the number of administrations and the quantity of the "doses". If the "lesions", compatible with "two" of the knives seized, as the consultants wrote, all had "maximum hemorrhagic infiltration of certainly vital significance" - i.e. Giulia remained alive as long as she could - on the 29-year-old's body it was not found no sign of defense, because the woman was attacked from behind with the first stab wounds inflicted in the area of the neck and the "subclavian" artery. Then, the others, of which at least three "on the face".
