Psychiatric evaluation requested for man who stabbed wife and children in Cianciana

The Public Prosecutor’s Office of Sciacca has requested the investigating judge an expert assessment to determine the ability of the suspect to understand and intend at the time of the act and currently. It is also necessary to evaluate the social dangerousness of Daniele Alba, 35 years old, who stabbed his wife and two children. The request was made by the prosecutor Roberta Buzzolani and the deputy prosecutors Alberto Gaiatto and Brunella Fava. The judge of the Sciacca Court, Antonino Cucinella, will decide whether to accept or reject the request, which is also aimed at determining the suspect’s accountability.
