Luigi Messina, 53, has confessed
to murdering his wife Sunday in Milan, investigators said
Monday.
Police said Messina at around 4:00 am Monday admitted to
killing his wife after lengthy questioning during which many
contradictions had emerged from his version of events.
Rosanna Belvisi, 50, on Sunday afternoon was found dead with
her throat slashed at the couple's Milan apartment, in Via
Coronelli, in the city's Lorenteggio district.
Messina, a former security guard, initially told
investigators that he was out for a walk and found his wife dead
when he went back home.
The couple's 25-year-old daughter was on holiday in
Switzerland with her boyfriend.
Belvisi had formerly worked as a superintendent at the
apartment building where the couple lived and was now working
for social security agency INPS.
Neighbors said the couple, who had just returned to Milan
after a brief holiday in Sicily, used to fight often.
Belvisi was killed just three days after another woman,
55-year-old Tiziana Pavani, was murdered at home in Milan, in
the Baggio neighborhood.
A 32-year-old friend, Luca Raimondo Marcarelli, has confessed
to killing her.
