However, on the evening of the appointment, realizing the aggressive intentions of the group which for the prosecution consisted of the woman and her daughter, as well as Passalacqua and Gaju, he fled with an excuse and sent a message to mislead them: “I am wearing a White shirt”. Which is not true; but nearby, by pure chance, and wearing just a white shirt, was Davide, waiting for a friend. The rest is sadly known.
