Filippo Turetta told a judge Tuesday
that he was heartbroken after murdering his ex girlfriend Giulia
Cecchettin and wanted to pay all the consequences for his
"tragic" actions.
"I am heartbroken, sorry for the tragedy I caused. I do not want
to shirk my responsibility, I want to pay what will be just for
killing my ex-girlfriend," said the 21-year-old Padua University
biomedical engineering student who has confessed to murdering
22-year-old Cecchettin on November 11.
"I am trying to reconstruct in my memory the emotions and what
triggered in me that night. From the beginning it was my
intention to turn myself in and be arrested. That was my
intention. Now I am very tired and I don't feel like adding
anything else," said Turetta, who was arrested in Germany on
November 19.
Turetta earlier confessed the murder to the preliminary
investigations judge (GIP).
