“How to kill with your bare hands” –

Another absurd and chilling crime fills the news. It is that of Maria Campai, 42 years old, the Romanian woman found dead in an abandoned house in Viadana, in the province of Mantua, several days after the disappearance reported by her sister. A 17-year-old boy was arrested on charges of premeditated voluntary homicide and concealment of a corpse: “I wanted to find out what it feels like to kill”, he confessed to investigators according to what “La Gazzetta di Mantova” reports. The victim – she had two children in Tuscany, who live with her ex-partner – had been taken to Viadana by her sister and her partner to meet a man she met online for a paid meeting they had agreed on on the web. But Campai never called to be picked up. The show Chi l’ha visto? was also interested in the disappearance. after his sister’s complaint.

Her sister had spoken of having taken her to “a gentleman with glasses, in his thirties”. Then he recognized that face in Viadana while asking around to traders and residents if they had ever seen Maria. At that point the investigators started checking, who heard from the boy who immediately admitted his responsibilities and led the investigators to the place where he had taken the woman’s lifeless body, after he had killed her in the garage of the house where he lives with his family of Albanian origins.

“He’s a quiet boy, how did he manage to do everything on his own at 17? If he made a mistake, he’ll pay. But maybe there was someone else, we need to look into it further”, the boy’s father told Tg3. The young man practiced the MMA combat sport and is described as a calm boy who had never caused any problems. According to what La Stampa reports, he told the investigators: “We had negotiated a service but then (Campai, ed.) demanded 200 euros. We argued but I didn’t want to kill her.” This version does not convince the police and the prosecutor’s office, which disputes the aggravating circumstance of premeditation. Also for searches carried out on the internet in the hours preceding the crime. One above all: “How to kill a person with your bare hands”, he would have typed on search engines.
