Michele Misseri, is set free. The "uncle michele", who has served - obtaining a sentence reduction of over 400 days - the 8-year prison sentence for the suppression of his niece Sarah Scazzi's body, who was killed at 15 and thrown into a well on August 26, 2010, will return to his Avetrana - the scene of the crime - on Sunday. The time of his release is not known, but it is known that Misseri, currently detained in the Lecce prison, will return home on Sunday, February 11.

Michele Misseri free again: he will leave prison on February 11 and will return to live in the villa of the crime

Uncle Michele returns home, access to the crime villa is forbidden

And the town in Taranto is preparing with a "stop to the media circus". The mayor of Avetrana has indeed issued an ordinance on the occasion of Misseri's return to Avetrana. The return to the crime house on Deledda street is scheduled for Sunday, and the residents already fear a new siege.

For this reason, the mayor of Avetrana has issued an ordinance that prohibits access to the streets. Therefore, stop to cars and motorized vehicles (however, access on foot will be allowed). At this time, the mayor is finalizing the ordinance, which could also include a ban on parking in the area as it happened in February 2017 when Uncle Michele was arrested. According to rumors, the ordinance, which has not yet been published, will affect the entire street to leave the residents who do not want to be besieged by curious and journalists in peace.

The residents and the mayor

"We hope that the media circus will last a little and that the assault of cameras and journalists looking for scoops will not be repeated. We are really tired", the residents said in recent days.  "We hope that there will not be the same media circus as before. I believe not, but the hope is this, also out of respect for Sarah's memory and her family. We want Avetrana to be remembered for something else, not for this sad and painful event". says the mayor, Antonio Iazzi.

The murder

For the murder, Michele's wife, Cosima Serrano, and daughter Sabrina, who are serving life sentences in the Taranto prison, were convicted. The Misseri house, on Deledda street, where Sarah was killed according to the investigators' reconstruction by Cosima and Sabrina (while Uncle Michele would have taken care of the suppression of the body), "it seems to me - says the mayor - that has been abandoned for years. Michele's other daughter, after all, already lived outside".

The murder was triggered, according to the sentences, by sentimental rivalries and disagreements between Sabrina and Sarah. Mayor Iazzi finally explains that "if requests were made to social services, what is expected for a person in Michele Misseri's state will be done. I would not want this thing to be emphasized. Social services would do what is expected for categories of subjects like an ex-prisoner. Misseri has always been an autonomous person. Until the day before yesterday, however, no request had been received in this regard".
