Corriere reports that this crime took place yesterday.
The American student was under the effect of psychotic drugs. He was wandering through the streets of Florence. He tried to force entry through a garage door while the victim was in the process of locking it.
The student attacked the retired bankteller and cut his throat with a mirror sliver. He covered the body with a piece of cloth and then left.
Police found him sitting on a bench nearby, a few hours after the murder was discovered. He has already confessed the murder.

Destructive Partying Of American Kids Leaving Italians Seriously Baffled

George Lesser reports on a wild student scene. Click above to read his report
1) One incident: a callous and unexplainable death
In a bizarre incident, criminal charges have been filed against an American student in Florence. According to the police, she and a friend tried to trespass onto the grounds of a large, private villa.
A guard tried to stop them. There was a scuffle, and the friend received a knife wound in the leg. There was no firm indication whose knife it was.
The student and her friend walked a short distance to a public bench. He laid down, and she sat beside him. He slowly bled to death, with her sitting beside him with an unused cell phone.
Apparently she made no effort to help him, and she now claims she was so drunk she cannot remember anything.
The Italian authorities don’t know how to deal with her. Her inability to aid in her own defense is something they have not experienced.
2) And one insight into what might be going on:
A lawyer in Florence for one American college is asked about the problem.
The answer: “You think alcohol is the problem? I’ll tell you what the real problem is. They’re all on [prescription medications].
They’re all on Ritalin, or lithium, or anti-depressants, and they stop taking them, or they take them erratically.”
[And] they neglect to follow up on their referrals to local psychiatrists, raising liability concerns.
Smartening up over liability concerns? Yes, that might save some American parents some very big bucks.
And have them riding herd on behavior….
