The trial regarding the murder of hairstylist Fabio Sementelli has opened with Christopher Austin testifying that the victim's wife, Monica Sementelli, expressed a desire for her husband to be killed. Austin, who was involved in the murder, indicated that Baker, Monica's lover, acted after receiving messages from her. Prosecutors argue that Monica sought to profit from her husband's life insurance policy and evade divorce complications. The testimony portrays Monica as a potentially manipulative figure in a complex and tragic case that raises questions about motive and intention.
Austin revealed that Baker had referred to Monica Sementelli as his "girl" and said she was in an "abusive" relationship and "wanted him [Fabio Sementilli] gone."
Prosecutors allege that Monica Sementelli "was the mastermind" of the plot to kill her husband, with the goal of pocketing $1.6 million in life insurance.
