The victim, a 93-year-old woman with Alzheimer's disease, was suffocated with a scarf by her daughter, who had been acting as her caregiver, at the family home in San Giovanni Valdarno (Arezzo) on the night of 8-9 March 2025. The suspect contacted police herself immediately afterward and confessed. Prosecutors sought a 12-year sentence, but the Court of Assizes of Arezzo acquitted her, finding that severe stress from the burden of caregiving had left her incapable of understanding or controlling her actions at the time.
