Milan: baby sitter murdered, autopsy Thursday on body found in Adda river

Milan, 3 March (LaPresse) – An autopsy will be held on Thursday at the Institute of Forensic Medicine in Pavia on the body of a woman found on Sunday in the Adda river near Zelo Buon Persico, in the Lodigiano area, which investigators believe to be that of baby sitter Jhoanna Nataly Quintanilla Valle, who disappeared from Milan on the night of 24-25 November and for whose murder her partner Pablo Heriberto Gonzalez Rivas is in jail. The examination will be crucial to ascertain through DNA the identity of the corpse, which is almost unrecognisable after more than a month spent in the water, but the Carabinieri of the Nucleo Investigativo, coordinated by Prosecutor Alessia Menegazzo with the addition of Letizia Mannella, are almost certain that it is the Salvadoran woman. The forensic medical examination may also offer the truth with respect to the account offered by the 48-year-old during the interrogation of guarantee with the gip Anna Magelli on the dynamics of the death, when he spoke of a ‘sexual game’ gone wrong in which he would have ‘taken her by the neck breaking it’.
