Milena Quallini is one of the serial killers bloodiest in recent history Italy. He killed at least three abusers, rapists and pedophiles. now the book ‘Milena Quallini, murderer of violent men’ she recovers her story, but as she would have told it if she were alive and not as it has been told and painted throughout her history: not out of regret, but because of the traumas that her victims – or executioners – had created for her.

Her second husband, Mario Foji, was the most famous victim of this Italian born in Mezzanino, a city north of Pavia, in 1957. The insults, humiliations, rapes and beatings were constant until one night, Qualini, fed up with everything, decided to teach him a lesson. , but it got out of hand: he had killed him. She later called the police herself.

She was sentenced to 14 years in open custody for this, however, her lawyer managed to prove that she had acted in self-defense: that is, it was either he or she. For this fact, the media baptized her as “the black widow of pavia“.

Two more “bad men” in his history

However, before Fogli there was another murder: an 80-year-old man he cared for named Giusto Dalla Pozza. One day the old man also tried to rape her but she defended herself against him: she smashed a lamp into his head and killed him, but she managed to convince the carabinieri that she had been the victim of a robbery.

After Foji’s murder, Quallini was alone, addicted to alcohol, traumatized by the sexist abuse she had received throughout her life, and wandered around northern Italy until one day, she read an advertisement in a newspaper. : “50 years old. Dynamic, divorced, slim, own house. I am looking for a sociable partner, maximum fifty years old. For friendship, coexistence… and whatever arises.”

What emerged is that this man, Angelo Porrello, convicted of pedophilia for abusing his three daughters, also raped her and when he finished, he offered her a coffee that he sweetened with a sleeping pill with which he murdered him. Once again, Quallini returned to prison, since three murders were too many even though his victims were rapists, pedophiles and abusers. He committed suicide in Vigevan prison, in the province of Pavia, at the beginning of this century, in 2001.
