ITALY – A twisted food blogger has told police he filmed himself as he brutally killed a porn star whose dismembered body was found in bin bags by the side of a road in Italy this month.
Davide Fontana, 43, kept the camera on his phone rolling as he battered victim Carol Maltesi, 26, with a hammer while she was naked and tied up to a stripper pole with a bag on her head before he slit her throat.
He then told shocked officers he waited a day before trying to burn the mother-of-one’s face to disguise her identity and then buying a saw to dismember her body into 15 pieces.
Fontana, who also works in a bank, then bought a deep freezer from Amazon and kept her body in four bin bags at his home before dumping it on a verge.
The remains of Carol, who turned to pornography during the pandemic to support her child, were found earlier this month by a passer-by at Borno near Brescia who was shocked to find her severed hand inside.
She was identified after police revealed details of her distinctive tattoos and she was recognised by people who had seen her adult work on Only Fans.
Carol was last seen in January, but Fontana carried on using her phone and sending messages to give the impression she was still alive, even paying the rent of the flat where she lived nextdoor to him in Rescaldina near Milan.
ANPR cameras saw him using Carol’s car near Borno earlier this month when he dumped her body.
He then went to police to try and throw them off the scent by giving them ‘information’ about her disappearance.
But officers became suspicious of him and arrested him.
He later broke down and admitted he had killed Carol, who also went by the screen name Charlotte Angie, as they made a violent porn film together.
In his leaked confession Fontana said: ‘We were supposed to make two films, with the second one being more violent. It was the morning of the January 10 or 11 and we were in her house.
‘We finished the first film and then we went to the bedroom where there is a lap dancing pole. I tied her wrists to the pole and put a plastic bag over her head.
‘She was completely naked and I also tied her feet up. I had a hammer and started hitting her on her body, not hard, starting from her legs.
‘Then as I worked my way up I started to hit harder until I got to her head.
‘I don’t know why I did it, I don’t really know what happened. She was still moving her head but I carried on hitting her.
‘Then I suddenly realised what I was doing. I took the bag off her head, I thought she was dead, there was a lot of blood and she was badly hurt.
‘I didn’t know what to do so I grabbed a kitchen knife and slit her throat. It was an act of kindness; I could see she was suffering.’
ontana told cops he had deleted the videos from his phone but forensic experts are examining it’s memory card to try and recover the gruesome images.
Carol, who had previously worked in a perfume store, had turned to pornography during lockdown to make ends meet and support her six-year-old child.
Colleagues told local media: ‘We knew what she did but she wasn’t ashamed. She had made her own mind up and wasn’t coerced. It was her private life.’
One neighbour said: ‘Her and Davide were an item for a while but then split up. They seemed to get on well afterwards.
‘She had split up from the father of her child, he lived elsewhere and he had their son, but the little one would come and stay every now and then.
‘My child and him would play together in the courtyard. No-one can believe what’s happened.
‘I know she had family in Holland because she had told me and she had gone there for Christmas.
‘She had even spoken about moving there but nothing had come of it. She was a lovely, kind gentle woman and a devoted mother.’
Fontana is currently in custody and due to appear in front of an investigating magistrate accused of aggravated murder as well as mutilating and hiding a corpse.
A police spokesperson said: ‘This is a shocking case and some of the officers themselves have been left very upset at the details they have heard.’
