Giulia Cecchettin was a bright 22-year-old on the verge of graduation, whose life was brutally cut short by her ex-boyfriend, highlighting Italy's deep societal issues regarding violence against women.
With 101 women killed in Italy this year, over half by partners, Cecchettin's case underscores not just a personal tragedy but a national crisis in addressing women's safety.
The violent death of Ms. Cecchettin and the subsequent trial of her ex-boyfriend Filippo Turetta reflect enduring chauvinistic attitudes and systemic failures in preventing gender-based violence in Italy.
Turetta, who confessed to the murder, exemplifies the tragic consequences of jealousy and possessiveness, showcasing the urgent need for societal change in attitudes towards women.
