Mother and daughter hanged, the woman leaves a farewell letter

Mariolina Nigrelli, the 40-year-old woman found dead last night hanged with her 14-year-old daughter Alessandra, in the country house on the outskirts of Santo Stefano di Camastra (Messina), left, as Adnkronos learns, a long farewell letter on the table in the country house where the two corpses were discovered. The woman addressed the long letter, written by hand, to her husband, Maurizio Mollica, a well-known blacksmith in the small town of Messina known for artistic ceramics in which one reads, among other things: “I take away Alessandra with me”, telling of some difficulties. The 14-year-old girl was attending eighth grade in Santo Stefano di Camastra. At the moment the most accredited track is that of homicide-suicide, also confirmed by the woman’s farewell letter. Even if, in any case, the investigators do not exclude other leads. On the spot, throughout the night, the Chief Prosecutor of Patti Angelo Vittorio Cavallo, who reached the country house where the tragedy occurred, and the deputy Andrea Apollonio, who coordinate the investigation into the death of mother and daughter. two women were found hanged, around 8 pm, a short distance from each other. Finding the bodies was the woman’s husband, Maurizio Mollica, who was overheard by the investigators all night. He has been crying all the time, as we learn, telling of “strained” relationships, especially in recent times with his wife. The man, in the afternoon, suspicious because the woman did not answer the phone, reached their country house in the Bed Santo district, about eight kilometers from the town, also known from the tourist point of view for its presence of the homonymous sanctuary that dominates the whole Halaesa valley from above. Arriving here he would discover the lifeless bodies of the two women. And he immediately called the carabinieri. Between today and tomorrow, the Patti Public Prosecutor’s Office will give the assignment for the autopsy to understand when the two women died and what was the dynamics. Late yesterday evening, when Patti’s prosecutor Angelo Vittorio Cavallo was reached on the phone, he limited himself to telling Adnkronos that “it is still early to make assessments” and that he was expecting a forensic examination. But in the meantime the farewell letter was found, in the hands of the investigators, which could give some explanations to what happened in that country house. On May 19, the woman shared a post on Facebook from the ‘Emotions of the heart’ profile that read: “Some children will never understand a parent’s unspoken plea to warn you about something. When a parent asks you about something. not to smoke is just asking you to live longer than him. When a parent asks you not to go out with certain people it’s just because those people might hurt you. When a parent calls you multiple times on his cell phone he doesn’t do it because he wants to annoy you , it’s just that his soul quivers to know you are at home safe and sound. A parent never gives you the worst or wishes you. A parent loves you and begs you to have a better and happier life than his own. ” And the woman had added, in dialect: “In fact, they say put yourself with those who are better than you.” Adding: “You just make me sick.” Investigators are trying to understand what he meant.
