Literally, until he’s thrown off balance The victim’s body decomposed every day for four months. Between the corridor and the bathtub of the apartment where he was killed, on August 20, he cleaned the apartment and got rid of the knives, thanks to the underage boyfriend of a friend with CTS, until the Civil Guard arrived. A few days after the murder, four months later, he confessed to the other boy what he had seen.

As for how the incident happened, the alleged mother-killer repeatedly blames her boyfriend with statements such as “he washed my head” and “he threatened me”. The first time he stabbed her twice with a knife, the victim claims she didn’t see him sleeping on the couch because she was hiding in the bathroom with her dog. “To not see anything” but “I know because I heard a ‘click’ when the knife broke.” The victim staggered in the corridor until he was seriously injured.

“Mom, why did we have to end like this?”

After prolonging her final moment of confession with alleged trips back and forth between her mother’s dying body and the kitchen, she smokes a cigarette with her boyfriend (tobacco, she never says it’s marijuana), because at that moment she says she is unable to kill herself, and when he approaches her, he begins to “caress her and say, ‘Mom.’ “I started saying, ‘why did we end up like this?’” but then claims she was encouraged to finish it, but then pushed her away because her boyfriend had demanded she do so.

And the end is coming. Ri remembers going back to where Anna lay. “I started caressing her again, my mother couldn’t talk anymore, she could barely breathe, she was dying.

Marya Tereza: Yes yes, a cut like when you fall and cut yourself, like that, the same.
