A 38-year-old Brazilian woman and her
49-year-old Italian live-in partner were given life by the
supreme Court of Cassation Tuesday for murdering her artisan
ex-husband in Sestri Levante near Genoa in November 2017.
The court found that the woman, Gesonita Barbosa, convinced her
partner Paolo Ginocchio to murder her ex Antonio Olivieri by
hitting him over the head with a blunt object and strangling him
with electrical ties on November 23 2017.
The woman, a gambling addict, was said to have been moved to
murder by her ex's refusal to give her enough money to feed her
habit.
