HerculaneumThe trial with immediate rite for the double homicide of Tullio Pagliaro and Giuseppe Fusella, the two young men of Naples, opened today in courtroom 115 of the New Palace of Justice of Naples, before the judges of the first section of the Assize Court. arcade killed with two shots from a .40 caliber pistol on the night between October 28 and 29, 2021, in Ercolano, in the province of Naples.
The deputy prosecutors of Naples Luciano D'Angelo and Daniela Varone have accused the 53-year-old truck driver Vincenzo Palumbo of the aggravated voluntary homicide of the two boys, whom the defendant said he mistook for thieves. After the rejection of the exceptions presented by Palumbo's lawyer and the admission, among the civil parties, of the Municipality of Portici (the mayor Vincenzo Cuomo was present in the courtroom) and of the Polis Foundation, the Court of Assizes opened the trial.
Palumbo's defense (the defendant was present in the courtroom) decided to waive its witnesses except for the consulting doctor and the electrician who installed the burglar alarm in the defendant's home. Palumbo, in fact, declared that it was the burglar alarm in his house that woke him up that tragic night. This possibility was denied by the Carabinieri who investigated the double homicide. The next hearing, set by the judges for June 9, is expected to continue the questioning of witnesses.
