«You have to stay with me, not with your friends» . Thus, even after the end of their relationship when she had decided to leave him, Filippo Turetta would have manifested, with ever more "insistence" in the last period, his obsessive desire for "possession" towards Giulia Cecchettin .
She was one step away from graduating, she wanted to become an illustrator of children's books. And she still tried to be close to him, victim of his psychological blackmail , who told her that he would kill himself.
In the last few weeks, before she was killed by Turetta, some of her ex-boyfriend's attitudes and behaviors had led the 22-year-old to have increasingly "anxiety" and "fear" that something could happen to her .
Filippo, from a "quiet but somewhat introverted" boy, had become increasingly "insistent and possessive" .
Now from the messages and audio that the lawyers of the student's family, the lawyers Stefano Tigani and Nicodemo Gentile, are collecting, it appears that Giulia was increasingly scared and that Turetta would have accused her of spending too much time with the family instead of with him and of neglecting him in favor of his friends, of whom he was "jealous" .
Meanwhile, in judicial circles it is made clear that it will be difficult for the 21-year-old, at least at this stage of the proceedings, to obtain a psychiatric evaluation to ascertain any inability, even partial, of understanding and will at the time of the facts. At the moment, the defense has not presented a request, also because it is unlikely to be accepted . In his case there are no previous diagnoses of mental problems, nor specific evidence in the first psychological and psychiatric evaluations of the Verona prison team.
The defense card of mental defect, however, remains a theme of the proceedings. Already in his statements in which he admitted the murder, saying he was "heartbroken and ready to pay", Turetta put down in black and white elements which lead us to believe that the defense line will focus on two fronts: on the one hand, to exclude premeditation , on which the The Venice Prosecutor's Office has several clues, including the two knives he allegedly brought with him, and on the other to check for possible mental pathologies .
"I'm trying to reconstruct in my memory - said the 21-year-old - the emotions and what triggered in me that evening" . The defense, with lawyers Giovanni Caruso and Monica Cornaviera, could make themselves available for an interrogation before the prosecutors of the young man, who will soon also be charged with hiding the body.
