Tramontano’s murder, Impagnatiello’s life sentence requested

by time news

Alessandro Impagnatiello’s trial for the ⁤murder of Giulia Tramontano will come on November 25, World Day for the Elimination‌ of Gender-Based Violence. ⁢In the‌ courtroom on Monday,‌ the prosecutor Alessia Menegazzo and the⁤ Deputy Letizia Mannella​ asked for‌ life imprisonment with solitary confinement during the day for 18 months for the former barman‌ Armani Bamboo, who killed his‍ girlfriend⁤ 7 months pregnant with 37 ​stab ⁢wound, in Senago on 27⁢ May 2023.

The ‍prosecution‌ opposed all​ the aggravating circumstances: premeditation, cruelty, futile ‍reasons, as well as the emotional relationship of cohabitation; in addition he requested ‌that⁢ the general mitigating circumstances not be ⁣recognized (“there was not a single moment to be spared in his conduct”). Impagnatiello must finally answer for the ​concealment of a body and the termination​ of ⁤a non-consensual pregnancy. ‌Before the Milan ⁢Assize Court, headed by the⁤ judge Antonella Bertoja, ‌the⁤ prosecution traced back all the basic steps, reconstructed in the investigations of ⁣the Carabinieri of the ⁣Milan Investigation Unit, which led to ‌the ​murder of Giulia⁢ Tramontano, 29 years old , “killed‌ with unprecedented violence” in the house he shared ‍with‍ his partner, in the Milan area. ⁤His ​body was found four⁤ days later⁤ in ​a cave near a​ garage. The ‍former 31-year-old barman, also defined on the‌ basis of the psychiatric report that excluded⁤ mental defects, ‍as “psychopathic, liar and unscrupulous”

⁣ Regarding premeditation,⁢ the‍ «ambush» in which Giulia Tramontano fell the victim on his return home, ⁢for‌ the prosecution is but «the epilogue of a murderous⁣ plan that⁤ began⁣ many months before, with the administration of rat‍ poison, ammonia and purchase of chloroform. “,⁢ already‌ a month after the ‍news of the pregnancy, in a “true journey in horror”, ‌which had a​ turning ​point on the ‍day​ “the​ revelation” of the woman ‌who had a parallel relationship Impagnatiello ⁣and the meeting clarified the⁣ two women in the bar of the⁣ Armani Hotel. “The⁣ accused realizes that‍ his lover‌ offered him a way out, and he immediately took⁤ the opportunity – said the prosecutor. Like a chess player, Impagnatiello said⁤ that he felt like a player ⁣the two women moved⁤ like ‍a bet. ​And the same night after the murder he showed up at the door​ saying he was free. ⁤And we don’t know what would ‌have happened ⁤if she had been reckless enough to ⁢the to ⁣open a door for him. For the expert he has a serial psychology”.

Beard ⁣and hair ⁤shaved⁣ to​ zero, Alessandro Impagnatiello​ remained impassive yesterday‌ in the ‌face‌ of the accusations made against him: «He always acted​ in a way ​consistent⁣ with his ​”dark triad”, as defined by the experts he considered able⁣ to understand and trying to⁤ . A Triad⁤ consists of⁣ psychopathic, narcissistic and⁣ Macchiavellian​ characteristics, with the ability to lie and manipulate, even‌ to ​one’s relatives, and without remorse, resulting ‌in fatal narcissism”. “It is ​very scary to⁢ accept⁢ this truth -‍ continue prosecutor – that⁢ even so-called normal men can commit such terrible crimes,⁤ even ⁤against the people they say they love”, said​ the prosecutor‌ in one of the final passages⁢ of his indictment, at quote Hannah Arendt and the Eichmann ⁤trial: “This subject showed us true⁣ cruelty and manipulation. This trial ⁢was an opportunity for all ⁣of us to look beyond the valley that showed us the banality⁣ of evil.”

Temptation, the ⁣head of the quote, that no one could resist yesterday. For civil party lawyer Giovanni Cacciapuoti, Impagnatiello became Travis Bickle: ‍«the character that De​ Niro had in Taxi Driver». But it was also Catiline who abused the patience of ⁣others: «Quo⁣ usque tandem abutere, etc.», which he contrasted with Kant’s “starry sky and ⁤the moral law” (semper cit.). Then it ‍was the defense’s turn, the lawyers Giulia Geradini and Samanta Barbaglia denied, in⁤ their speech,⁤ premeditation and other aggravating circumstances, with the exception of the ⁤undeniable bonds of cohabitation. Then came Impagnatiello ​”like‍ Dostoevsky’s Raskolnikov”, who “made⁣ clumsy actions”, spreading clues behind himself “as if⁤ trying to find out”, ‍said Barbaglia, and the swing of contrasting ‌actions ‌and ⁢intentions shown by the defender, who juggled two. women and ‍two pregnancies, compared‌ to Woody⁢ Allen’s Match Point.

During the discussion, attended by Giulia’s family, including her ⁣mother Loredana Femiano,​ who then shook ⁤hands ​with the prosecutor,‌ her father Franco, her sister Chiara ⁣and her brother Mario, the ‍29-year-old also recalled events.⁣ “Dear Giulia, it‍ is no longer​ a‍ time of ⁣horror, it ‍is no⁣ longer a time for lies, ⁣selfishness and malice”, wrote her mother Loredana Femiano, who​ shook⁣ hands with ⁤prosecutor Menegazzo at the end the indictment.

Interview between Time.news Editor and Criminal Psychologist Dr. Laura Fiorini

Time.news‍ Editor: Welcome, Dr. Fiorini. The trial ‌of Alessandro Impagnatiello for the murder of Giulia Tramontano has ⁣attracted significant media attention, especially with its⁢ timing coinciding with the World Day for the Elimination ⁢of Gender-Based Violence. What are your initial thoughts on ⁢the⁤ implications of this case?

Dr. Laura Fiorini: Thank you for having me. This trial ⁤is⁢ particularly poignant given its date.‌ It ‌serves as a stark⁢ reminder of the⁤ ongoing issue of gender-based violence. Impagnatiello’s case highlights not only the tragic loss of Giulia, who was pregnant at the time of her murder, but also the pervasive nature‌ of violence against women. ⁣The details about premeditation and ‍the ⁢brutality of the ​act reveal deep societal problems that need urgent ‌addressing.

Time.news⁤ Editor: The prosecutor has characterized Impagnatiello’s actions as part of a “murderous plan,” which involved manipulative ‍behavior leading up to the crime. ⁣How does this relate to what ⁤you describe as the “dark triad” of personality ‌traits?

Dr. Laura Fiorini: The “dark ‌triad” refers‍ to a set of ⁣three personality traits: psychopathy, narcissism, and Machiavellianism.​ Individuals with these traits often exhibit⁣ superficial charm, manipulation, and ⁤a lack of empathy or remorse. What we see in Impagnatiello’s case⁤ aligns with ⁢these characteristics—his calculated actions, from administering ‌poison to concealing the crime, suggest a cold and strategic ⁣mindset. These traits can create a façade of normalcy that‌ allows such individuals to function and even thrive in society ‌until they cross a line into violence.

Time.news Editor: ‍The prosecutor also mentioned that even “so-called normal men” can commit such horrific acts, akin to Hannah Arendt’s reflections on the banality of evil. What does⁣ this mean for our understanding of perpetrators of gender-based violence?

Dr. ⁤Laura Fiorini: This ‍statement is incredibly‌ powerful. It suggests that​ men who commit such acts ⁤aren’t necessarily violent individuals by nature but can appear entirely ordinary in their daily lives. Arendt’s theory implies that evil can emerge from mundane actions and choices made ⁤by seemingly ‘normal’‍ individuals when they operate under certain influences or societal ‌pressures. This challenges the narrative that only ‘monsters’ commit violent acts. It emphasizes the need to evaluate the social conditions that allow such behaviors ⁢to manifest, as well as the importance of recognizing the signs of toxic ⁤relationships early on.

Time.news Editor: Can you elaborate on the significance of ⁤the prosecution opposing‍ the recognition of ⁣mitigating circumstances?

Dr.‍ Laura Fiorini: Yes, this is a crucial ⁣aspect ​of the legal proceedings. The ‍prosecution is making a strong statement—that Impagnatiello’s actions were not just the result of a momentary lapse in judgment, but rather part of a calculated and heinous act of violence. By seeking life imprisonment with ⁢solitary confinement, they aim to establish accountability and send a clear message that gender-based violence will not be tolerated and will be met with serious consequences.

Time.news Editor: As we approach the trial date, what can society do to address and prevent gender-based violence effectively?

Dr. Laura Fiorini: ‍ Education‍ and awareness are fundamental. We must teach both men and⁤ women⁤ about healthy relationships, consent, and respect from an early age. Additionally, we need to create safe environments for victims to speak out and seek help without fear.⁣ This case highlights the importance of addressing ⁤underlying societal attitudes that condone​ or overlook violence against women. Promoting open discussions about emotional and psychological manipulation can also help in recognizing ⁤potential red flags in relationships.

Time.news Editor: Thank you, Dr. Fiorini, for your insights. It’s crucial that as a society, we process these events thoughtfully and strive for preventive measures against such tragedies in the future.

Dr. Laura Fiorini: Thank you for having me. Conversations like⁣ this are vital for fostering change and understanding ⁣in our communities.
