Prosecutor: the hypothesis of Turetta’s crime is voluntary homicide
Salvini on Giulia: the family must be a family
«We as a League have fought for civic education, which is already a reality, but I say it as a dad: the school must be the school, the society must be the society, the institutions must be the institutions, but the family must be the being. the family. Because it is clear and evident that the school cannot reach everyone, like the mayor or the Minister. It is the mother and father who must understand if they have someone at home who is at risk of becoming a problem.». Thus Matteo Salvini responds in Reggio Calabria to a question from journalists about the murder of Giulia Cecchettin.
German court: prosecutor’s request has not yet arrived
The request of the Prosecutor General’s Office regarding the Filippo Turetta case has not yet reached the court in Naumburg. “At the moment it is not possible to communicate the time necessary for the arrival of the corresponding request from the Public Ministry and for the subsequent processing,” it is simply confirmed in a court note distributed to journalists by the Court spokesperson.
PM: extradition within ten days
“I should be back in about ten days.” This is the “prediction” communicated by the Venice prosecutor, Bruno Cerchi, regarding the return to Italy of Filippo Turetta, detained in Germany with a European arrest warrant, for the murder of his ex-girlfriend Giulia Cecchettin. If the detainee gives his consent to the surrender, as in this case, the conditions provide for the return within a maximum period of ten days.
The timing of Giulia’s autopsy depends on Filippo’s letter rogatory
The autopsy and other unrepeatable investigations into the murder of Giulia Cecchettin “will be, in part, marked by the times derived from the rogatory acts that are being prepared” given “the presence of the suspect in foreign territory.” The investigations – states a note from the Venice Prosecutor’s Office – require “the necessary participation” of Filippo Turetta.
“Only after the result of the technical advice and a more in-depth analysis – the note concludes – will the development of the facts and, therefore, the more precise legal framework become clearer.”
Turetta has not yet been questioned
Filippo Turetta “was not interrogated, because to be interrogated it is necessary to appoint a defense attorney. We have to interrogate him, but that may be when they hand him over.” This was stated by the chief prosecutor of Venice, Bruno Cherchi. “If the German procedure takes a long time – added Cherchi – we could think about going to hear it in Germany. But this We will see in the coming years, as long as it is at the disposal of the German police.
The hearing in Germany is not yet scheduled
“No comment”: this is how the spokesman for the Oberlandesgericht of Naumburg, the highest court of ordinary jurisdiction in Saxony-Anhalt, responded to journalists who asked for information on the deadlines and procedures for the extradition of Filippo Turetta to Italy.
The spokesman, Henning Haberland, did not want to add anything more and referred to possible press releases. On an electronic board at the entrance to the Court, as ANSA was able to verify on site, there is an agenda with a list of three appointments, none of which are related to Turetta’s case.
Prosecutor: the hypothesis of Turetta’s crime is voluntary homicide
«The discovery of the girl’s body clearly requires the change of position, which has therefore been modified. It is a voluntary manslaughter, currently, but it is a provisional accusation because we have to carry out all the technical investigations on the places, on the findings, on the car, we have to listen to Turetta’s version of the events, and only then “At this point it will be possible to make a more complete approach.” This was stated in Padua by the chief prosecutor of Venice, Bruno Cherchi.
In addition to the crime of murder, provided for in article 575 of the Penal Code, the judiciary challenges the aggravating circumstance of use of “insidious means”, provided for in the second paragraph of article 577.
Finally, there is also the possibility of a crime being committed. kidnapping, provided for in article 605 of the code. The Venice Prosecutor’s Office specifies this in a note, underlining that “the discovery of Giulia Cecchettin’s body has modified the facts and, therefore, the classification of her in a different type of crime than the one previously challenged against Turetta. “The arrest of the latter, after the issuance of the European warrant by the German police, put a firm stop to the investigations.”
Turetta, the lawyer: Filippo did not react, he was almost waiting for the arrest
“When Filippo was arrested, he was in his car and he didn’t react, it’s like he wasn’t waiting for anything other than that moment.” This is reported by Emanuele Compagno, who defends Filippo Turetta, detained in Germany, after a week on the run alone, for the murder of his ex-girlfriend Giulia Cecchettin. The German lawyer «said – explains the Venetian defender – that he found him tired and exhausted. “The validation hearing was brief, it did not give any details about the escape.”

Alive, without fuel or money, submissive. Here was Filippo Turetta, aboard his Fiat Grande Punto with a black body and a dented hood, on the emergency lane of the A9 in Bad Dürenberg, a handful of kilometers from Leipzig, the last thirty of the thousand journeys in a week to escape his responsibilities for the murder of Giulia Cecchettin. Defeated like any other motorist on foot, with his headlights off, after having been searched in vain throughout the Northeast and also in Austria: instead, he had reached Germany and who knows if he returned to Italy, when on Saturday evening He was later arrested by the Saxony-Anhalt police, who yesterday afternoon took him to the Halle court for the arrest validation hearing and then directly to prison, without further passing through the inspection offices.
THE REPORTS
After dozens of digital measurements of his car, filmed with Targa System devices and video surveillance cameras between the areas of Venice and Treviso, between the Pordenone area and the Belluno area, between Tyrol and Carinthia, finally decisive for the capture of the young man 22 years old. Torreglia’s old men were the human reports.
Those of the drivers who, due to speeding on the Berlin-Munich highway, raised the alarm about a car stopped in the emergency lane with its lights off, which constitutes a violation of the German highway code. The Halle police station, directed by Annett Werick, reports the content of an intervention that at first seemed banal and everyday: “Shortly after 10:00 p.m. on Saturday, a car broken down and turned off was reported on the A9, in the area from southern Saxony. -Anhalt. When officers arrived at the vehicle, the driver was near the vehicle. Further investigation revealed that Italian authorities were seeking the 21-year-old for his arrest. The man was provisionally detained without resisting. “The vehicle was seized.”
FUEL AND CASH
Outside the Teutonic bureaucracy, rumors filtering through Merseburger Straße describe a murderer on the run (this is the accusation against him, with no presumption of innocence) “tired and resigned, as if he wanted to give himself up.” Turetta surely ran out not only of fuel, both methane and gasoline, but also of cash, probably used to avoid being traced through electronic payments, although the trail of blood was printed on a 20 euro bill found in the self-service checkout. from a distributor in Cortina d’Ampezzo. The police “cautiously” proceeded to identify the driver: his permit confirmed that he was indeed the fugitive, as indicated by the license plate -FA015YE- registered in the Interpol database and corresponding to the alert issued throughout Europe. “The murderer approached the agents and allowed himself to be detained without resisting,” the investigation sources reiterated.
After spending the night in the security cell of the barracks, yesterday afternoon Turetta was taken to the Halle district court, where the hearing to validate the restrictive measure was scheduled for 5:00 p.m. After the appointment of the public defender, Dimitri Kasse, the sentence was pronounced quite quickly: already at 6:53 p.m., the police announced that the judge “decided that the man would be arrested”, so “he was taken to a penitentiary center” in the same city. Now they must finalize the procedures relating to the delivery of the young man to the Italian authorities, to the point that the Naumburg High Court should enter into the substance of the matter today.
Meanwhile, German researchers are also carrying out some research. According to what has been possible to reconstruct, in fact, at the time of the check the car was traveling on the highway in a southerly direction and not towards the north, as it should have done if it came from Italy. For this reason, the police decided to carry out a series of investigations using cameras, to check whether the passage of the vehicle was recorded in northern Germany, or if it was a more anomalous trip in the context of a long and tortuous journey from that time. dramatic November 11. On paper it should have been just over 900 kilometers in a dozen hours, but instead it was at least a thousand in 7 days, avoiding the Italian highways, but not the German one. That is, the historic Bundesautobahn 9, built almost a century ago as the Reich Autobahn and used during the Cold War as a transit route from West Germany to West Berlin. A remote past for a boy who found himself, a fugitive and penniless, with his car stopped here, between the Leipzig-Großkorbetha railway and the Rippachtal crossing, a week after having taken the life of the young woman he claimed to love.
