A 17-year-old Italian boy has killed his parents and little brother in a savage knife rampage just hours after the family celebrated his father’s 51st birthday.
WHAT HE SAID
The teen, from Paderno Dugnano, near Milan, Italy, confessed to the horror killings on Sunday, telling investigators: ‘There is no real reason why I killed them. I felt like a foreign body in my family.
Oppressed. I thought that by killing them all I would free myself from this discomfort’.
According to local reports, the young boy had initially told authorities the fabricated story that he had witnessed his father, Fabio Chiarioni, 51, killing his mother, Daniela Albano, 49, and brother, 12 – before taking a knife and stabbing his father.
WHAT INVESTIGATION REVEALS
The 17-year-old explained to investigators that he entered his brother’s room on the second floor of the family home to find Chiarioni sitting on a chair with the knife next to him.
He told officers the body of his mother was on the ground by his father’s feet, and his brother was lying dead in his bed before he launched his attack on his father.
The teen later revealed to investigators that he had felt ‘discomfort’ within his family and that these emotions had erupted just a few hours after the family celebrated Chiarioni’s 51st birthday.
He also said he had been thinking about carrying out the killings ‘for a while,’ reports Il Messaggero.
HOW THE ATTACK HAPPENED
The boy explained how at around 2am on Sunday morning, he grabbed a large kitchen knife and attacked first at his little brother, plunging the weapon into him at least ten times.
He then made his brutal attack on his parents who were also in his brother’s room, but the young brother was found to have the most stab wounds.

The teen called authorities immediately after the savage killings, telling Italian emergency services that he had knifed his father to death.
L’unione Sarda reported the boy had told authorities: ‘I killed my dad, come,’ following the attack.
When officers arrived outside the family home, they found the 17-year-old on the pavement in his underwear and with his bare back covered in blood.
He was reportedly still holding the blood-soaked knife in his hand until the authorities arrived, where he then dropped it to the ground.
