Lucrezia Ciotti The autopsy on the body of Lorena Isceri , killed by her ex-boyfriend Federico Vella on September 4th in Barberino di Mugello, has clarified a crucial point: the 45-year-old was still alive when she was thrown from the A1 viaduct. While the Florence Prosecutor's Office continues its investigation into possible premeditation, the victim's father renews his appeal against violence against women.
Lorena Isceri's femicide: investigation into premeditation and her father's appeal
The Florence Public Prosecutor's Office, led by Antonio Natale, is pursuing charges of kidnapping with intent to murder and femicide aggravated by premeditation. The Flying Squad is reconstructing the hours leading up to the crime, starting with Vella's presence near the woman's home, where neighbors had reportedly noticed him in the days leading up to it.
Investigators are examining the adhesive tape that was apparently applied to the photocell on the condominium gate, a receipt for a purchase made on the morning of September 4, and the objects found in the car , including cable ties, a hammer, scissors, and a tarp.
A forensic copy of three cell phones was also ordered to examine calls and messages, including those sent to family members, and to determine whether the stalking behavior had progressed after the relationship ended.
The family reported previous abuse and a threat with a knife , while Lorena apparently decided to cut off contact after increasingly insistent behavior.
Meanwhile, her father, Franco Isceri, renewed his appeal: " I hope my daughter is the last victim " and " The first thing to do is report the crime ." Addressing the authorities, he asked for swift action and reiterated: " How I would like to see a law passed with political unanimity to protect women ." In Florence, over a thousand people attended the demonstration organized by Mayor Sara Funaro outside the victim's home on Via Panciatichi. Flowers, candles, and a prolonged applause accompanied Lorena's mother, who thanked those present: " You can feel the affection, I thank you all ." Funaro emphasized the need to strengthen prevention efforts, emphasizing that violence against women should not be considered inevitable.
Femicide on the A1: Lorena Isceri was thrown alive from the viaduct: autopsy results
Lorena Isceri was still alive when she was thrown from the A1 motorway viaduct in Barberino di Mugello on September 4th. As reported by Ansa , this is what emerges from the initial autopsy results performed at Careggi Hospital on the 45-year-old woman, who was kidnapped by her ex-boyfriend Federico Vella and transported in the trunk of his car. Her death is believed to have been caused by a fall from dozens of meters, but the final assessment will be included in the forensic report expected within 90 days.
The examination will also clarify whether the bruises found predate the fall and are attributable to the abuse she suffered. " We imagined it ," Cosimo Miccoli, the family's lawyer, told Adnkronos , recalling the call to 112 during which Lorena allegedly tried to convince her ex to stop. " At the end of the 19-minute call Lorena manages to make, you can hear Vella opening the trunk to throw her away; you can hear something and even some moans ," he explained. The family, he added, had at least hoped the woman was unconscious at the time of the fall.
The investigations will also involve Vella's body , with toxicology tests to determine whether she had been intoxicated. Once the investigations are complete, Lorena's body will be returned to her family and transferred to Squinzano, where the funeral is scheduled for Wednesday or Thursday.
