He was only 10 years old and his father, Mirko Tomkowhe brutally told them taken his life. “I was drunk and it bothered me“, this is the man's comment on the terrible gesture committed towards his son. A gesture that cost him the final life sentence. His lawyers have in fact given up on appealing to the Supreme Court. The sentence for the father of Cura di Vetralla, in the province of Viterbo, is definitive.
Final life sentence for Mirko Tomkow, the man who killed his 10-year-old son in Cura di Vetralla, in the province of Viterbo, Lazio. The man's lawyers have given up on appealing to the last level of appeal.
We will not go before the judges of the Court of Cassation. Therefore the life cell sentence of June 27th remains valid. The man was accused of family abuse towards the ex-wife and of voluntary homicide of the child aggravated by premeditation for trivial reasons.
Mirko Tomkow had taken the life of her 10-year-old son, Matias, on November 16, 2021. She had surprised him alone in the house where he lived with his mother. The 47-year-old couldn't get close to his ex and son and shouldn't have been there.
He was drunk: he had drunk a bottle of vodka alone. When he saw his son, he closed his nose and mouth with scotch tape. Then he stabbed him and put the body in the container on the bed. She doused him with petrol and wanted to set everything on fire. But he lost consciousness.
Final life sentence for Mirko Tomkow, for the murder of his 10-year-old son
I entered the house and no one was there. I went in with the keys hidden outside. With a kitchen knife I opened the attic door. I smoked, drank and waited. While I was there I heard the wheels of my son's backpack rattling on the steps and I went down. As soon as he saw me he yelled to go away. I threw him to the floor and put him in the bathroom sink, while Matias continued to scream.
These are the words of the man in the courtroom, in reconstructing what happened:
It was annoying, to make him stop I took the tape and wrapped it on his face. I got the knife at the end, but I don't remember.
