Davide Paitoni availed himself of the right not to answer during the Guarantee questioning . According to his lawyer, Stefano Bruno, “he was not in a position to sustain the interrogation”. Paitoni is in solitary confinement and subjected to strict surveillance in prison to prevent him from committing self-harming gestures.
On the crime , the Minister of Justice, Marta Cartabia, asked the inspectorate to “urgently carry out the necessary preliminary investigations” on the case .
The funeral of little Daniele Paitoni will take place next Friday, January 7th. The ceremony will take place at 2.30 pm in the oratory of San Luigi Schianno, which the little one attended and where the animators after the tragedy remembered him with a moved post on Facebook.
The mayor of Morazzone, Maurizio Mazzucchelli, announced it on social media, adding that on the occasion “city mourning will be proclaimed in both Morazzone and Gazza da Schianno”, that is, the two towns of Varesotto where Davide Paitoni and his wife lived respectively. she had returned with the baby to live with her parents.
Let’s retrace the events: On January 1, Davide Paitoni, 40 years old from Morazzone (Varese), gets permission to see his son despite being sentenced to house arrest for attempted murder. He kills his 7-year-old son Daniele with a stab in the throat and then tries to kill his mother too, from whom he was separating, after joining her at the home of her parents where she had moved, in Gazzada Schianno (Varese) .investigations carried out by the President of the Court of Varese, Cesare Tacconi, in the light of what happened.
A formal separation was not underway between Paitoni and his wife, the two were still negotiating the terms through the lawyers, and to authorize visits to the pope by their child was the Gip of the Court of Varese, who arrived the request of the 40-year-old’s defenders. Between 2020 and 2021, her wife filed two complaints for mistreatment against her husband . At the same time, a third report arrives at the Varese Public Prosecutor’s Office from the woman’s parents, so much so that a “red code” would be open, the outcome of which is not known at the moment.
Davide Paitoni was under house arrest for stabbing a work colleague (he was a sales clerk in a company) last November 26 and accused of attempted murder, but despite the complaints he was allowed to see the child because in the Court in Varese he did not no record relating to the alleged allegations of ill-treatment was transmitted.
“The order for house arrest was signed on November 29, endorsing the measure requested by the magistrate”, explained the president of the Court of Varese, Cesare Tacconi, “who motivated it with the danger of probative pollution, not with the social danger, and the judge cannot aggravate the prosecutor’s request “. Subsequently, continues the President of the Court, “the defense attorney of the suspect asked that he be allowed to see his son and his wife, since according to the ordinance he could not have contact except with family members living together, therefore the father” . On 6 December “the investigating judge authorized the man to see his son”.
With regard to the woman’s complaints and the red code, Tacconi specified how “there is no pending before the court against the man, so if there are complaints, they are still in the Public Prosecutor’s Office “ . Then he concluded:” I have carried out all the necessary investigations, between the two there was no formal separation in progress , if I am formally asked to submit a report. ” The Prosecutor of Varese had instead asked that Davide Paitoni’s social danger be declared, when he was arrested for the attempted murder of a colleague. The clarification comes from the prosecutor Daniela Borgonova and seems to go to direction different from that declared by the President of the Court, Cesare Tacconi.
It remains to be understood whether the complaints are still locked in some drawer of the Varese prosecutor’s office, waiting to be examined. “Regardless of the concrete case and basing the reflection on the experience gained in the Commission on Femicide” said the Vicar President of the Court of Milan Fabio Roia, “domestic violence must never be underestimated and double-parenting must always be suspended in the presence of complaints situations of violence, information must circulate “and” the ‘network system’ must consider that “those who report” are at risk of even extreme violence “.
The family of little Daniele closed in pain. The paternal grandfather, 80, to whom the killer sent a voice message saying he had hurt his child, a whatsapp that the man had not even opened, so much so that the investigators did it for the first time, and maternal grandparents, alongside their grief-stricken daughter. “I can’t speak now, I’m devastated,” said the woman’s father.
