Pierpaola Romano, the policewoman killed by her colleague, “was ill and had broken off the relationship”

mWhile new details emerge on the crime of Giulia Tramontano, Italy finds itself dealing with another feminicide. Victim the policewoman Pierpaola Romano58 years old, killed yesterday in Rome with three gunshots from colleague Massimiliano Carpineti45, which after a short escape is committed suicide. It was 11 on Thursday morning when Romano found her dead as she left her house in via Rosario Nicolò, in Torraccia, to face the her first day of chemotherapy. In fact, she had recently learned that she was afflicted with a breast cancer which worried her a lot. She was holding her Asl papers when Carpineti reached her in the entrance hall of the building and the fired three shots – two in the chest, one in the head – with the service pistol. A neighbor heard the shots and called the police station around 11.25am. Arriving at the scene, the police found the woman’s body still kneeling in a pool of blood. Help is useless.

La Romano, in service at the Chamber of Deputies Public Safety Inspectorate, had met Carpineti at work. Between the two, one was born relation. But when Pierpaola discovered she was ill, she was reunited with her husband: people Adalbert Montanaro, with whom he had a 22-year-old son, also a policeman. Pierpaola and Adalberto had gone through a period of crisis, after so many years of marriage, but they had never stopped living together. And recently they had decided to try to mend their relationship.

Paola had left Hornbeam woods explaining to him that he wasn’t well, that he had to start a heavy cure, that he couldn’t add further worries to the disease. He however, he didn’t want to know: he was obsessed with Pierpaola, he was constantly looking for her and often showed up by surprise at his house. So much so that she recently confided to her colleagues: «Massimiliano’s behavior and reactions scare me». Now the investigators are trying to reconstruct the last days of the victim’s life, and the exchanges he had with Carpineti. The cell phones of the two agents were seized and the contents, in particular any victim and killer chats and messages, will be examined by the investigators.
