Filippo Turetta, 23, has been sentenced to life imprisonment for the femicide of his ex-girlfriend, 22-year-old Giulia Cecchettin, in a case that has deeply affected Italy. Turetta confessed to the brutal murder of Cecchettin, who was killed on November 11, 2023, with at least 75 knife wounds. The trial, held in Venezia, concluded after five hearings, with Turetta charged with murder, kidnapping, and concealment of the body.
