“There is no way he did this, no way,” said to Daily News Carmine Vivolo, who has known the accused since they were both five years old. “I feel like he’s been framed, like he’s in the wrong place at the wrong time.” “He has never shown that kind of anger.”
Louie DiMasi seconded that opinion. “As far as I’m concerned, “There is no way on God’s Earth that he would have done this,” said the barber, close to the family for many years. “I pray every day that it’s not true.”
Police have not released a possible motive for the crime. Sutera’s arrest was the third case in a week of a son accused of killing his mother in NYC. On the night of Friday the 19th, a woman was stabbed to death, her son was seriously hospitalized, and her dog died after being thrown from the 11th floor in Brooklyn. The next day Jacob and Rachel Sperber, both 75, were stabbed to death in Borough Park and their son was charged with the double homicide.
All charges are mere accusations and those charged are presumed innocent until proven guilty in court.
Domestic violence is common in New York City and surrounding areas, between relatives, roommates and partners, even with minor victims. Every day in NYC, an average of about 747 incidents of domestic violence, including assaults, abuse, verbal abuse, and about 65 homicides annually.
Last week, a man was charged on suspicion of killing his 83-year-old grandmother on Christmas Day in Bristol, Connecticut. A man and a woman were also found dead with gunshot wounds to the head in an apartment in Brooklyn (NYC) in an apparent murder-suicide.
Also this month, a Hispanic woman killed her daughters and her husband and then took her own life inside her home in Union (NJ) after receiving an eviction order, authorities reported. In another similar incident, a man was arrested on suspicion of killing his 61-year-old father hours before Christmas Eve in New Jersey. A week later, a 40-year-old mother died after being shot in the head inside her Long Island (NY) home on New Year’s Eve.
