According to prosecutors, one possible motive is that the parents of the 5-year-old were separated and the mother felt intense jealousy for her husband’s new bond.
Elena Patti, a five-year-old girl, was murdered outside Catalonia, Sicily, by his 23-year-old mother. Last night, the woman had complained to the carabinieri that her daughter had been abducted by three armed men, inside the family car.
The prosecutor in charge, however, immediately realized that there was insufficient evidence: no CCTV camera had recorded the abduction, while the little girl’s family is anything but rich.
Today, finally, after repeated interrogations, Elena’s mother whispered to a carabinieri that she had killed her daughter and that she had buried the body in a field about two hundred meters from their house.

The murder was found to have been committed shortly after the 23-year-old received her daughter from kindergarten. Until now, he has not been able to explain why he deprived little Elena of his life.
According to prosecutors, one possible motive is that the parents of the 5-year-old were separated and the mother felt intense jealousy for her husband’s new bond.
The grandparents of the unfortunate child, in a state of shock, demanded immediate justice and to find out if there were accomplices who may be co-responsible for the murder of their granddaughter.
