“He was a boy, not Italian, with a big black bag open at the end, from which clothes were coming out. The bag was swollen in the center. It was very agitated, but kind. He offered to help me with the stroller, perhaps to distract me”, said a lady from the neighborhood. The tenant on the first floor in via Dusmet revealed a even more gruesome story. She passed him on the stairs at 3.16pm with the sack dripping blood. He obstructed the exit: “I asked him if he needed help to carry it: he just told me to step over it. I asked him what it contained and he replied “del pesce“. So I became suspicious and called the police.” On Michelle Causo’s body no signs of sexual assault were found. The 17-year-old, reports Il Messaggero, did not declare himself a drug addict. At the time of the arrest he seemed lucid. But he will still be subjected to drug tests.
