“After I ate a piadina, Giulia went into the kitchen to prepare dinner and started cutting some tomatoes. I was in the living room.

At that point Giulia reopened the discussion by telling me that life had become too heavy for her and she couldn't live anymore."
This is one of the passages from the interrogation given the other night to the prosecutor and the carabinieri in which Alessandro Impagnatiello recounted the last moments of life of his girlfriend, Giulia Tramontano, who he then stabbed. “Giulia tried to defend herself by moving and wriggling,” he added, “but in a weak way. (…) She didn’t scream.”
But the investigating judge ruled out premeditation
But Alessandro Impagnatiello did not premeditate the murder of his partner Giulia Tramontato, the girl originally from Sant'Antimo and seven months pregnant.
This is what the investigating judge of Milan Angela Minerva believed, excluding the aggravating circumstance contested during the arrest by the additional prosecutor Letizia Mannella and the PM Alessia Menegazzo.
In validating the order executed yesterday morning by the Carabinieri of the Milan investigative unit, the judge instead recognized the other aggravating circumstances of futile motives, cruelty and the bond of cohabitation.
The judge also decided to drop the aggravating circumstance of cruelty, underlining that "the homicide does not appear, at this stage, to be characterised by particular obstinacy, taking into account the type of weapon used and the number and severity of the blows inflicted".
Regarding premeditation, the investigating judge cites jurisprudence from when the intention to kill arose to the moment in which Impagnatiello he stabbed Giulia, not enough time has passed to recognize the aggravating circumstance.
The 30-year-old, a self-confessed criminal, attempted twice to burn his partner's body, which he then hid in the brush near the garages of a building not far from his home. He is charged with aggravated voluntary homicide, concealment of a corpse and termination of pregnancy without consent.
Giulia to her friend: 'Alessandro ruined my life'
“Alessandro had ruined her life and now”, after discovering the betrayal “she would have been forced to return to the south after all the sacrifices she had made to leave him”. These are the confidences of Giulia Tramontano, collected by a friend a few hours before she was killed by her boyfriend, now in prison, Alessandro Impagnatiello.
As can be read in the report included in the investigation, the witness told of a phone call on Saturday afternoon in which Giulia, "shocked", told her about the meeting with the woman with whom Impagnatiello, “badly regarded” at work and “nicknamed filthy”, had been in a parallel relationship for some time.
Impagnatiello: “I killed Giulia because I was stressed”
Alessandro Impagnatiello, explained “having acted without any real reason because he was stressed by the situation that had arisen, mentioning among other things, as a source of stress, not only the management of the two girls but also the fact that others had become aware of it”.
This can be read in the provision with which the investigating judge Angela Minerva validated the arrest and ordered the 30-year-old's precautionary custody in prison. Alessandro Impagniatiello must remain in prison because there is a "qualified risk of repetition towards" the Italian-English girl with whom he had a relationship and with whom “the suspect hoped, having 'eliminated' the danger posed by Giulia Tramontano, to continue”.
Impagniatiello must remain in prison because he can also kill his other lover
Alessandro Impagnatiello, today, during the interrogation to validate the arrest, corrected his shot regarding the dynamics of the stabbing. From what has been learned, the man explained, answering the judge's questions, that the girl, before he killed her, had "unintentionally" injured her arm with the kitchen knife she was using to cut tomatoes.
That would have been the "spark" that would have led him to hit her several times at the height of the neck. Previously Impagnatiello had said, confessing to the crime, that Giulia On Saturday night, while she was busy preparing dinner, she reportedly told him that life had become “heavy” for her.
After that “he started getting cuts on his arms.” “She had already inflicted a few blows on herself to the neck and I, having arrived near her, in order not to make her suffer, inflicted three or four blows too”. A version that was retracted this morning.
