American Man Detained in Greece over Suspected Double Killing of Infant and Woman in Rome
- On Friday, Greek authorities arrested a 46-year-old American man on the island of Skiathos, suspected of murdering a woman and her infant whose bodies were discovered last weekend in a park located in Rome.
- The woman, identified as the infant's mother by DNA, was found dead under a black bag several days before the infant was discovered naked several hundred yards away in undergrowth.
- In Rome, eyewitnesses and surveillance cameras recorded the man carrying the infant in a park shortly before the victims were discovered, while police connected him to the scene through fingerprints and tracked his whereabouts in Greece using mobile phone records.
- Deputy prosecutor Giuseppe Cascini stated there is reasonable suspicion of a double murder, while chief prosecutor Francesco Lo Voi said it is “not exactly understandable” that the suspect fled without seeking help after the deaths.
- The suspect will face an extradition hearing in Greece next week as Italian authorities prepare a formal arrest warrant, indicating ongoing legal proceedings and further investigation.
