Envy for the happiness of others. According to the investigators, this would be the incredible reason that would have pushed Antonio De Marco to plan for days – maybe weeks – in the smallest details and then carry out the brutal murder with dozens of stab wounds of the young referee Daniele De Santis and his girlfriend , Eleonora Manta. , murdered a week ago in the house they had just moved into together and where they had lived with their killer for a few months.
De Marco was arrested last night by the police at the exit of the Lecce hospital where he worked as a nurse. He did not resist, he only asked the military “how long they stalked me” and in the long night interrogation in the presence of the prosecutor, Leonardo Leone De Castris, he confessed.
Once inside the house, the killer hit Daniele first, then fiercely threw himself on the girl, chasing them both while, asking for help, they tried to escape through the balcony and then down the stairs where he ended up with dozens of stab wounds. According to the investigators, he acted “with cruelty and total absence of any feeling of pity”, “out of mere sadistic complacency” in a context of “macabre ritual” also attested by the fact that in the nylon stocking he wore on his face
«I did shit – De Marco said when they caught him – I know I was wrong. I killed them because they were too happy and that’s why I got angry.
ZANALDA: PSYCHIATRIC DISORDER DUE TO ALTERATION OF REALITY
However, on the motive, the world of psychoanalysis is divided. It is a “somewhat absurd” motive, says Enrico Zanalda, president of the Italian Society of Psychiatry. “The fact that they were too happy and this disturbed him, causing him to get angry is not a credible motivation, it is also possible that there is a significant disorder at the base that makes him say things that do not make sense.” “They will have to investigate more – he says – if there is something pathological at the base, everything is possible, but it would be necessary to know the situation better. As it stands, the motive is not credible. ‘ “It seems that he was more implacable with women than with men,” he adds, “this may suggest a hypothetical passionate motive, an attraction or even a greater knowledge that he had of women. However, it could also be something that he had built in his head. “For the psychiatrist” those who suffer from any pathology do not commit more crimes than those who are healthy and, above all, they do not usually do it in a context of people who do not know well “. Zanalda adds that” the motivation provided by the student leaves us dismayed “and ensures that the Lecce case recalls another that occurred in Turin last year, at the Murazzi.” Even in that case, the one who killed said he had done it because he had seen the other too happy, but in fact, after investigating, it turned out that the man had seemed to him the new partner of his girlfriend. “One of the possible disorders that could be at the base of the gesture confessed by the student from Lecce according to Zanalda “is an alteration of the relationship with reality, a psychiatric pathology.”
THE LEGALS OF THE SANTIS FAMILY: EVERYTHING EVEN MORE UNACCEPTABLE
“Everything is even more unacceptable for the family, to such a violent and terrible death is added the absurdity and the lack of motive.” To tell Adnkronos, the legal lawyer Mario Fazzini of the family of Daniele De Santis, who was murdered on September 21, stabbed him with his girlfriend Eleonora Manta at their house in via Montello in Lecce. A twenty-one-year-old from Casarano, Antonio De Marco, was arrested for the heinous double murder, who lived until the end of August in De Santis’s apartment a few steps from the station. “Everything is absurd, nobody could have imagined such a thing. Daniele’s family knew that he was the last tenant in the house, one who left in the morning and returned at night. It’s absurd ”, repeats the lawyer.
