He keeps his dead mother at home for 2 months or maybe more, the police find a mummy. “I didn't want to be separated from her”.
She had been dead for two months or maybe more but her son, almost eighty years old, kept her composed, with her pyjamas, in her bed, telling everyone that his mother had gone out. “to go shopping, with friends, to go to Mass.”
Whether he did it out of calculation or simply out of desperation, it will be up to the Carabinieri coordinated by the Genoa prosecutor's office to establish.
The news was anticipated by the Secolo XIX.
Roberto Silvestri, 77, a retired employee living in Sampierdarena, to anyone who asked about his mother Angela, 93, he replied that she was not at home. She had gone shopping, or that time she was with friends, or at mass.
But last Monday the woman's support administrator, who had been trying in vain to contact her for a month, decided to go home. And since Silvestri refused to open the door because “Mom isn't here, she went out shopping” he decided to return with the carabinieri and the firefighters.
It was the firefighters who broke down the door that Silvestri did not want to open and the carabinieri who made the discovery. In the bedroom the soldiers found the now mummified body of mother Angela.
The coroner, who arrived for an initial external examination of the body, predicted that death had occurred at least two months earlier and, at least from the first analysis, no trace of wounds or lesions that could suggest a violent death.
Silvestri, who told the police that he had kept his deceased mother at home because “I didn't want to separate from her” he is now hospitalized in a state of shock. The body has been seized. The investigation is entrusted to the Carabinieri.
