Murder of Martina, the mother: "Maybe Alessio's mother was trying to warn me"

Naooli – “His mother didn’t threaten me, but she told me: ‘Be careful on social media, someone can rape and kill’. Now I can say that I should have been careful with her son. I don’t know if it was a warning, maybe she had sensed something and didn’t have the courage to tell me openly”.

The words of Fiorenza, mother of Martina Carbonaro, the 14-year-old killed in Afragola, guest of the program Storie Italiane on Rai1.

The woman recalled a conversation she had with the mother of Alessio Tucci, the girl's ex-boyfriend, now detained on charges of murder. "Three weeks ago I learned that Alessio had slapped Martina.

That evening I had people for dinner, we couldn't talk about it right away. Then, in the room, she told me that she had put up with a lot, even that slap, and that she had been wrong to accept it. I was struck by her maturity in recognizing her mistake".

“Martina always spoke well of him, but now I fear that there may have been something else and that she chose not to talk about it. She never came home with bruises,” adds her mother, revealing an even deeper anguish.

According to the reconstruction, the young woman had confided in another boy on social media, and this would have triggered Alessio's jealousy. "He thought she had cheated on him," says Fiorenza.

Retracing the last hours before the tragedy, the woman recalls having sensed a disturbance in her daughter: "When she got nervous I could tell by the tone of her voice. After speaking to her around nine, I went downstairs in my pajamas and went to the entrance of the cross street. Near a bar, behind the pine forest, I went back and called him. He told me that he had not been with Martina for long, that she did not want to be accompanied and he had left".

Alessio's mother confirmed that the two were no longer together. "She was afraid I would report him, but we just wanted to know who had seen Martina last."

Finally, a dramatic detail: “Martina had gone out with her friend Anna to get a yogorino. Now she is no longer here. I learned that perhaps she wanted to escape. Perhaps she had understood something”.

A heartbreaking story, that of a mother who seeks answers and justice for her daughter, while the community of Afragola remains shaken by a crime that continues to raise questions and pain.
