Veronica Panarello was convicted of murdering her 8-year-old child in an Italian court this week, and was sentenced to thirty years in prison. The murder was one of the more heinous crimes of recent years. Panarello murdered her son, who walked in on her engaging in a sexual encounter with the boy’s paternal grandfather. She attempted to deflect blame and even lied to police, however, the prosecution was able to show that Panarello was in fact, responsible for the boy’s untimely death.
The prosecution had no trouble convincing a jury that she was ‘manipulative’ and a liar. The court dubbed the murder unusually cruel. Panarello first beat the child, then strangled him to death with electrical cables before dumping his body into the canal. Throughout the trial and conviction, Panarello maintained her innocence. She claimed that Andrea Stival, the boy’s grandfather, killed him. She stated to the court that she had been having an affair with Stival. When her son walked in, she claims that Stival killed him to prevent him from telling anyone.
She changed her story several times when talking to police, who had found the boy’s body near a local gully. She first reported him missing and stated that he never came home from school. This was quickly disproved, as surveillance video clearly showed her leaving school with him that day. She then changed her story and stated that he died in an accident while playing with the cables. Despite being tangled in her web of lies, she continued to blame Stival for the crime. When Stival was questioned, he said, “It is just another lie out of that crazy woman.”
While Panarello’s case will likely end up in an appeals court, those are not the last of her legal troubles. Stival has stated he plans to sue Panarello for slander, for making him the focus of her defense.

Another child murdering crazy bitch from the U.S.
They really are terrible, I’m telling you. Western women are AWFUL!
Rather, “from the US” I meant that is where she got her insanity.
The West spreads it like a plague, inciting women to be self absorbed and go against the true female form.
By ‘the West’ I believe you mean capitalism.
The internet gives small minded people like you a platform to spout judgemental and stereotypical nonsense as truth. Crimes are permitted due to bad mental health and there’s lots of that everywhere. Read the news, travel, read some more
