A photograph, a shot with your smartphone, to document every sign of violence. A 33-year-old woman, a teacher in Naples, did it over 200 times, every time her partner slapped her, hit her with a punch or a kick. These photos became evidence at the time of the complaint against the man, Antonio Ferro Del Giudice, 47 years old, a doctor from the Naples Local Health Authority, who already had a criminal record.
The woman had been a victim of violence for almost two years and had begun to document every mark left on her body: the bruises, the blood, the blows from my face to my back, from my legs to my belly. After taking the photos he transferred them to the PC to then store them on a DVD. He would delete them from his phone where they might have been found.
The peak of the violence a few days ago. «On Wednesday evening we went out, when she took me home she asked me if I wanted to go back with him, but I told her no. She then she lashed out at me the first slap in the face. Then she stopped the car several times along the way and each time she attacked me with more and more ferocity” the woman said according to what was reported by the Corriere della Sera.
When they arrived at the woman's mother's house, where she has lived since November 2023, she got out of the car. But he didn't leave. «To prevent the situation from degenerating» the woman opened the door and, as soon as she entered the house, she said, “he started hitting me hard until I lost consciousness”. Her mother was also hit. It was neighbors who called for help after hearing screams from the house.
The 57-year-old was arrested red-handed. For her 40 days of prognosis. Doctors saw her body full of bruises. In front of the Carabinieri she told everything that had happened to her since she met Antonio Ferro in 2022. The first complaint was made in June 2023, which was then withdrawn. «I was convinced by him and his family that we would embark on a journey as a couple». It wasn't like that, other violence occurred, even when she decided to take refuge with her mother. The man is accused of family abuse and persecutory acts.
