A Canadian cafe owner, Luciano Frattolin , was charged with second-degree murder and also with unlawful disposal of a human body after his nine-year-old daughter Melina Frattolin was found dead in Ticonderoga, hours after her father reported an abduction to the police. The father was arrested when police found that there was no abduction and the story was cooked up by the father -- with many inconsistencies.
What Luciano Frattolin told police
Police said that the father-daughter duo were in the US on a vacation and were due to return to their homes in Montreal Sunday. Luciano told the police that two men in a van abducted his daughter when he stopped his vehicle to urinate. The police believes he killed his daugter and disposed the body.
Dual national, unfortunate event, past mistakes: Strange details of Luciano emerge
The website of Luciano's cafe Gamebella has a detailed biography of Luciano who was born in Gambella to an Ethiopian mother and an Italian father. The death of his father when he was jist 17 years old made his adulthgood difficult, it said as he "lost his passion for the art of life" as he ventured into several businesses including architecture, real estate, mining etc.
"He forgot the gifts his unique dual-nationality granted him—the innovation and creativity born out of the simplicity and extravagances found across both countries. He readily admits the mistakes of his past life and uses such reminiscences as momentum for doing better," the bio said.
"In February 2019, Luciano was met with an unfortunate event that severely affected his well-being. Though his road to recovery was long and arduous, he remained determined. As he persevered through his recovery, he realized that he was no longer lured by profit and instead, decided to invest in people and ideas that resonated with the promise of futurity, creativity, and community well-being," it said without elaborating on what happened to him.
It also has a mention of Melina whom it called the "beautiful daughtrer", "the light of his life" and the inspiration for everything.
