Adnkronos (Adnkronos) – The motive provided by Pablo Gonzalez Rivas could be a risky move if the discovery of the body were to contradict what he confessed; but also a winning one because it could transform the charge of voluntary homicide aggravated by futile motives (a thesis that the prosecution continues to forcefully support) into unintentional homicide, that is, of someone who causes the death of a person without having the will to kill him (maximum sentence 18 years).
Only the body of Jhoanna Nataly Quintanilla, the babysitter who disappeared on the night between January 24 and 25, can provide the truth about her death. This is why the search, which has been concentrated in the Cassano d'Adda area since yesterday, has continued today and will continue tomorrow. The discovery of the body, and therefore the possible autopsy, would reveal how the woman was killed and whether the suspect abused her body.
Meanwhile, starting next week, scientific tests will also begin, entrusted to the Carabinieri, in the house where the 40-year-old Salvadoran woman died and in the car she disappeared in. If the luminol were to give positive results, Pablo Gonzalez Rivas would already have to explain why that blood was cleaned.
