Naples. It was his aunt who convinced him to turn himself in after a few hours of escape. Renato Caiafa, 18, Arcangelo Correra's cousin, tearfully confessed at the police station: "No, I didn't mean to fire that shot - and I don't know how it happened, I didn't even touch the trigger.
Now I'm desperate."
Since yesterday afternoon, he has been in Poggioreale prison for carrying and possessing an unlicensed weapon and receiving stolen goods, and is being investigated for manslaughter. This last charge will likely be formulated by the investigating judge after the preliminary hearing, which will take place tomorrow.
He then confessed to killing his cousin Archangel Correra but that he didn't want to do it was an accident.

After the shooting, Renato Caiafa rushed to the nearby Vecchio Pellegrini hospital, where he left his dying cousin on a stretcher and escaped. He then alerted his family via cell phone what had happened. He went to his aunt's house, shaking all over. He recounted what had happened. The woman, after calming him down, convinced him to turn himself in to the police station.
The boy shows up and says where he hid the gun, the officers find it and he tearfully confesses how he killed his cousin. And then at just 18 years old he begins his new life as a prisoner in the Poggioreale prison.
