(Adnkronos) – Gianluca's life sentence confirmed on appeal in Rome
Molinaro, the man who on July 4, 2024, opened fire with a sawn-off shotgun against his ex-partner and mother of his son, Manuela.
Petrangeli killed her in the Portuense neighborhood. The judges, as requested by the prosecutor general, reaffirmed the first-instance ruling from last January, which recognized the aggravating circumstances of premeditation and stalking.
After the crime committed on Via degli Orseolo, not far from the clinic where his ex-girlfriend worked, Molinaro turned himself in at a Carabinieri station, handing over the sawed-off shotgun he had used to commit the femicide. Investigators also acquired text messages exchanged with a friend before the crime, one of which read, "Today I might kill two birds with one stone," and another, after the murder of the 51-year-old physiotherapist, said, "I shot him twice."
The defendant attended the reading of the sentence via video link from prison.
