Rome, April 18 (LaPresse) – "Ilaria was motionless. Mark looked like a demon, he was crying and through his tears he said: 'Ma, she's gone'." These are some of the words spoken by Nors Man Lapaz, the mother of Mark Antony Samson, during her interrogation at police headquarters before the Rome prosecutor and homicide investigators. Samson, a 23-year-old of Filipino descent, fatally stabbed his ex-girlfriend Ilaria Sula. When asked if she had seen the murder weapon, Nors Man Lapaz replied: "I didn't see it, and then Mark asked me, 'Do we have a big suitcase?'"
