A 17-year-old who confessed late
Sunday to allegedly killing his parents and 12-year-old brother
at their family home in Paderno Dugnano near Milan has been
arrested.
The teen was detained after being questioned all day by
investigators headed by Milan juvenile prosecutor Sabrina
Taranto.
Judicial sources said there is no clear motive behind the triple
motive.
"It will be necessary to wait for a long time before explaining
such an atrocious gesture", they noted.
The 17-year-old on Sunday confessed to allegedly killing his
parents and 12-year-old sibling after changing his previous
version of events according to which he had killed his father
after the man had stabbed his mother and brother to death in
their home.
He said he had woken up during the night after hearing his mom
and brother scream and had walked into his sibling's room to
find his dad with a knife in his hand beside the bodies of his
younger brother and mother in the family apartment.
