Abandons his wife and goes to live with his two lovers, who kill him to collect a million-dollar insurance policy
Paolo Vaj, a 56-year-old man, was brutally murdered in July 2019 by Patrizia Armellin and Angelica Cormaci, who were involved in a financial scheme related to insurance policies. Both women received prison sentences for the crime, but a recent court ruling denied Vaj's widow, Roberta Bencini, the insurance payout of €310,000, stating that the beneficiary, Armellin, could not profit from the murder. The court deemed the policy null due to the circumstances of the crime. Bencini plans to appeal the decision, arguing that Vaj had paid the premiums and that the funds should not benefit the insurance company.
