Suspected Roman prostitute killer Giandavide De Pau filmed his suspected murders of two Chinese sex workers in an upscale district of the Italian capital before driving to a nearby flat where he allegedly killed a 65-year-old Colombian trans prostitute last Thursday, according to a custody warrant issued by the judge who remanded him in custody Wednesday.
Police found videos, one lasting 14 minutes and the other 42 minutes, of the murders of Yang Yun Xia, 45, and Li Yan Rong, 55, on the phone of the 51-year-old former Camorra boss driver De Pau.
The man has been charged with killing the pair of prostitutes at two flats in Via Riboty before driving to Via Durazzo, in the same tony Prati district, where he also killed the 65-year-old Colombian trans prostitute, Martha Castano, on November 17.
Police did not find any footage of the third murder on De Pau's phone.
De Pau, who killed Castano with a stiletto during sex after stabbing the two Chinese women in the neck, chest and back, has now been linked to a cold case prostitute murder in Rome several years ago.
