Last farewell to Giulia Cecchettin, the girl from Vigonovo, in the province of Venice, killed by her ex-boyfriend Filippo Turetta. Monsignor Claudio Cipolla presided over the public funeral Wednesday in Padua's Basilica of Santa Giustina. "Giulia's smile will be missed by all of us," the bishop remarked during the sermon. Using rage to create a better society." The girl's father, Gino, then spoke up, reciting a speech that said, "Women are victims of those who should love them. Men must be changing agents. Young people should be taught how to communicate. May Giulia's history motivate us to work together to end violence, and may her death serve as a catalyst for change." There were approximately 10,000 persons in attendance. Many of those who were unable to enter watched the mass on the enormous screens placed up in Prato della Valle, a large square in Padua and one of the city's symbols. Bells were rung and demands to "make noise" were heard at the end of the mass. The body of Giulia Cecchettin then left Padua for a second, more private function in the church of Saonara, also in the region of Padua. Sister Elena said, "In the end, you have always been my guardian angel." Finally, the coffin was carried to the village cemetery, where Giulia Cecchettin was interred alongside her mother, who died in 2022.
