In a disturbing case from Busto Arsizio, a 56-year-old woman and her 58-year-old partner have been arrested on charges of continuous sexual abuse and complicity in the abuse of the woman's cognitively disabled son. The arrests, made on May 3, follow a meticulous investigation by the local police, initiated in December 2024 after the victim disclosed the abuse to his educators.
The investigation revealed a harrowing pattern of abuse, including repeated requests for erotic photos and videos from the man to the teenager. The woman allegedly facilitated the abuse by organizing meetings between her son and her partner, even going as far as to accompany the young man to the agreed locations and leaving him alone with the abuser. The police have gathered substantial evidence supporting the victim's account, including the psychological pressure exerted by both the mother and her partner to coerce the teenager into retracting or altering his statements.
Further complicating the case, it was discovered that the male suspect has a prior criminal record for sexual violence against a minor. This background, combined with the current allegations, paints a grim picture of premeditated abuse. The victim, who is described as having a mild cognitive disability, had recently come of age when the abuse was reported.
The judicial process is now underway, with the preliminary investigation judge in Busto Arsizio having ordered the pre-trial detention of both suspects. This case highlights the vulnerabilities of disabled individuals to abuse and the importance of vigilant protection by educators and authorities. The community of Busto Arsizio has been left reeling by the revelations, as the legal proceedings continue to unfold.
