A man who killed a neighbour
because her parrot kept calling him names is "partially mentally
infirm", according to an expert report to be presented at a
trial starting in December.
Unemployed 46-year-old Ignazio Frailis allegedly lay in wait
for 60-year-old Maria Bonaria Contu before jumping out of bushes
and stabbing her 11 times in Sardinia in May 2017.
Frailis was also irked by his neighbour's alleged
mistreatment of his 10 cats and three dogs, police said.
But it was the parrot's badmouthing that allegedly pushed
him to murder, they said.
