From the day of the arrest, Paola, Silvia Zani and Mirto Milani had closed themselves in silence, until the turning point of the last hours. Mirto Milani, in over 4 hours of face-to-face with the prosecutor, would not have discharged the responsibilities on the Zani sisters but would have admitted that
all three would act together
.
From the investigations carried out after the arrest, new elements emerged in relation to what the investigators defined
“the criminal trio”
. Among the novelties – as reported by The Giornale di Brescia – a pit found a few meters away from the place where Laura Ziliani’s body was found on 8 August and which, according to investigators, had been dug to initially contain the woman’s body.
According to the coroner who performed the autopsy, “the cause of death is to be identified in mechanical asphyxia from closing the air openings in a subject under the influence of benzodiazepines”. Laura Ziliani would therefore have been
first stunned
with benzodiazepine tranquilizers e
then suffocated
with a soft object, such as a pillow. And finally she was buried “near the bank of the river Oglio and – writes the coroner – covered with sandy material with the unearthing of the body following a wave about three days before the discovery”.
