Giordana Di Stefano was 20 years old, a small daughter, many dreams and the courage to report. But it wasn’t enough. Giordana was killed in 2015 at the hands of her former partner, Luca Priolo. He hit her with 48 stab wounds, in the face and in the body. It was the night between 6 and 7 October 2015. Through his mother’s voice True squatritein the new episode of Vanity Fair’s podcast **What remains. For Giulia, for all, ** We retrace the story of Giordana, from the daily life interrupted to the spiral of violence, to the void of the institutions.
«I was home that October 6 and my daughter Giordana had gone to work. Around 12.30 I received his last call and Giordana felt I had finished working and that would have returned shortly thereafter. Giordana has never returned. So from there a few hours, not seeing her return and after many calls that she didn’t answer me, I went out to look for her desperately. I understood going to the murderer’s house, meeting the mother, who had happened something because I saw her very indifferent. He was not at home and from there I understood. I called the carabinieri and from there a few hours Giordana was found one kilometer from my house, to Nicolosi, barbarously killed». At home, together with Vera Squarito there was a two and a half year old girl, Asia, Giordana’s daughter.
«The traumas that these are suffered children Not nobody can imagine them why you have to live them to understand how strong devastating, self -injurious are precisely because my nephew has lived abandonment at 4 years. He no longer saw his mom who was a very important point of reference. The father was occasional, so he did not have a big bond, but had absolutely tied to his mother, they had a very visceral, very strong relationship. That abandonment was devastating. It was not easy to manage the first years of Asia’s life after the death of her mother, precisely because she had lost every point of reference. But above all there was a sort of autocolperedization, he felt guilty of not having saved his mother precisely because he had also experienced assisted violence “.
What happened to her mother, Asia knew it by talking to Vera. «It was very difficult, I always answered all his questions with great sincerity, I never hid anything, not even the detail of how his mother was killed when I was asked. Today is a teenager, he sees that I make a lot of awareness campaign, sometimes he is the protagonist with me, he wanted me to go to his class to talk about his mother, it was a moment important for me because I understood that I was only mine the fear of facing this problem with her, she was ready. It was she who tells me “grandmother, you have to come” and I said “but I am perhaps not ready”, he said “but yes” “.
