A tragic event occurred on Wednesday evening in the apartment building in the village of Muggia, Italy, where a 55-year-old Ukrainian woman, Olena Stasiuk, who had been in Italy since before the war, killed her 9-year-old son, Giovanni.
Don Andrea Destradi, parish priest of the Cathedral of Saints John and Paul in Muggia, a town of 12,000 inhabitants between Trieste and the Slovenian border, recounts with shock his communication with the father of the 9-year-old boy who was killed by his mother.
"What did Paolo say to me this morning when he called me at 8 am to tell me that his son had been killed by his mother? We must have been on the phone for a quarter of an hour: instead of talking, he was crying loudly, repeating that 'she killed him brutally and I don't know the rest, nor do I want to know. I'm shocked, I can't believe it... what should I do now? A life without my son'..." , Don Andrea recounts, reports TCh.
Before being arrested, the woman, who until recently had been treated at the Department of Mental Health as a “psychiatric patient” and who earned odd jobs, attempted suicide, also injuring herself. But perhaps it was a trap, perhaps she had no intention of taking her own life.
Detectives from the Flying Squad, led by Alessandro Albini, are trying to describe the crime scene. The boy had been slashed in the throat with a kitchen knife.
At around 9pm on Wednesday evening, the priest, right there in the small square, among the Christmas stalls and open bars and restaurants, encountered the little boy’s father, Paolo Trame, 58, an employee of a small company, who was “calling someone on his mobile to find out where Olena and Giovanni were.” He was separated, a marriage that had broken down since the birth of the child. The documents collected describe the disturbing atmosphere surrounding Olena.
"Remember that if I die, Giovanni dies with me! And don't think I'm joking ," was one of the threats she made. And that's not all.
Two years ago, the child had reported being forcibly held by his mother, resulting in a three-day prognosis and a visible bruise on his neck. Paolo, who lives on the outskirts of Muggia, had repeatedly repeated these incidents in his official sealed documents: “Don’t leave my son with her, she’s dangerous.”
The fact remains that, immediately after the court’s decision to place the child in the father’s care, unsupervised visits between the mother and the child had begun. Previously, supervised visitation had been arranged for Giovanni, with social workers present during those hours. Once this process was completed, Olena was allowed to stay with her son without other adults around. The following evening, at 9:00 p.m., the father was scheduled to pick up the child from the mother’s apartment.
“But when I passed by him, Paolo was visibly worried, so much so that he didn’t notice me ,” Don Andrea said. Increasingly worried, at around 9:30 p.m., Paolo called the authorities. Police and firefighters arrived and used a ladder to enter the third-floor apartment. Olena was found “in a state of shock, confused, with a cut on her arm.” They took her to the hospital and then, after she was released, she was arrested. Andrea felt unwell yesterday after the incident and doctors were forced to intervene.
The mystery of the incident is why the woman was not receiving specialized care. The Local Health Authority (ASL) explains: the Mental Health Department (DSM) had not been responsible for her for several years, while Mayor Paolo Polidori explains that the municipal Social Services were following her “but to make sure that the court orders after the divorce were being followed”.
Don Andrea knew their family well.
"Giovanni was a blond boy, a football enthusiast, loved by everyone, Paolo a father devoted to his son and Olena, a woman to whom I had often advised: 'Get help from the doctors'. But she was convinced that she didn't need it ," he recounts.
A "shocking tragedy", as described by the President of the Friuli Venezia Giulia Region, Massimiliano Fedriga, and Democratic Party MP, Debora Serracchiani.
Furthermore, Muggia 1967, the football team for which little Giovanni was registered, suspended all its activities yesterday.
