It is the middle of the morning of a day of unbearable heat in Soliera, in the province of Modena,
when the train of thought in the head of a babysitter who holds a child of just over a year in her
arms, on the first floor of a terraced house immersed in the green, takes an unexpected and
irrational detour. All the stress accumulated in recent months, the frustrations of a graduate
woman who cannot find a job, the need for attention, are transformed into an unbearable sense
of suffocation, to which she reacts by throwing the baby from a window three meters above the
ground.
Monica Santi, 32, resident of Carpi, explained it this morning in front of the judge for preliminary
investigations, Scarpa, making a spontaneous confession in prison about what happened on
May 31 last at the home of the young couple where she worked taking care of her son, now in
hospital in serious condition, but no longer in danger of life
Now, he has chosen – in agreement with his lawyer – not to oppose pre-trial detention in prison. Because, explained the lawyer, given the state of psychological instability in which she finds herself, she needs to be protected and contained. The parents of the suspect, who were able to see her only in the hours following the events at the carabinieri barracks where she was questioned, want to be close to her, have already submitted a request to visit her in the Sant’Anna prison in Modena where she is detained, and will be with her in the next few hours.
At the same time, the experts were called to perform a psychiatric examination on the woman, thus suggesting the possibility that the defense would choose the line of temporary insanity, against the accusation of attempted murder that was brought by the prosecutor. No contact requests or apologies, for now, to the professional couple she worked for, who have been at the bedside of an injured child for days, but who report small improvements in the general health picture.
