He confessed to stabbing Giovanni Musu to death and apologized to the victim's family, but in his spontaneous statements—given yesterday morning before Judge Giorgio Altieri—William Serra was unable (or unwilling) to explain the motive for the brutal crime. However, the family of the man killed with thirteen stab wounds, one of which to the throat, has already made it clear they are not willing to forgive.
The 38-year-old man from Carbonia, arrested on murder charges, was questioned yesterday morning before the investigating judge of the Cagliari Court, who signed the arrest warrant.
Serra, represented by lawyer Fabio Basile, did not answer the judge's questions, but he made a spontaneous confession in which he fully confessed to the murder, asking his family for forgiveness and offering to accompany the Carabinieri to recover the knife, which he had thrown into the vegetation of the Monte Rosmarino park during his escape on the night between Friday, January 16th and Saturday, January 17th. No reference, however, was made to the motive or reasons for the crime.
"The apology," replied Michele Musu, the victim's son, through his lawyer Marco Zusa, "sounds more like an attempt to improve one's position than sincere repentance. Therefore, no forgiveness."
