Cerrato murder, the murderer, Antonio Cirillo, was betrayed by one of his accomplices who revealed the murderer's name to the police four days later.
He was one of four people charged in the trial for the murder of Maurizio Cerrato, killed by a stab wound during an argument over a parking space, and the first to reveal the name of the killer to the police, four days after the tragic event.
The circumstance emerged today, during the hearing of the trial on the death of the 61 year old security guard at the Pompeii excavations, killed in Torre Annunziata on the evening of April 19, 2021, in progress in front of the Court of Assizes of NaplesThis was reported by the then commander of the operational section of the Carabinieri of Torre Annunziata, Lieutenant Sebastiano Somma, who was warned that evening and intervened even though he was not on duty.
The officer reported that to indicate Anthony Cyril (who after the military investigations will provide his confession) as the material executor of the assassination of Cerrato, was, on April 23, 2021, Domenico Scaramella (present in the courtroom) accused together with the brother George (connected via video conference from the Catanzaro prison) and with Francesco and Antonio Cirillo, father and son, the first under house arrest and present in the courtroom, the second absent.

Domenico Scaramella, the officer specified, was interviewed as a person informed of the facts that day. Not only that. The Carabinieri officer also revealed that it was thanks to an environmental wiretap that the Carabinieri of Torre Annunziata were able to discover that the garage's video surveillance system was functioning and had recorded what happened that tragic evening. Cerrato he was mortally wounded.
Images that allowed the identification of the people involved had been deliberately deleted from the on-site storage and from the cloud to which it was connected via the cell phone of one of the garage owners. The Carabinieri later recovered several particularly important frames from that cell phone, after realizing that—contrary to what they had previously been told—the system was actually functioning.
During the hearing, some of the messages that had "survived" the deletions and that they exchanged via chat were also read. Anthony Cyril and his partner: in one of these the self-confessed murderer of Cerrato asks his woman to go to the site of the tragedy to let him know what was happening ("go there and let me know"). The next hearing has been set for October 21.
