The Daughter and Mother Got Into a Fight, Then She Hacked Her Head Off, and It Just Fell off
The gruesome death of Rita Camilleri
Covered in blood from head to toe, Jessica picked up her mother’s head and walked to their neighbor’s home.
She dropped Rita’s head on the pavement on the way.
Jessica knocked on the neighbor’s door and asked him to call the police.
Dispatcher: Hello, what happened?
Neighbor: I don’t know. I was just home. She just came in screaming for help. And she said she had a fight with her mom…
Jessica: In self-defense, I think I killed her.
Dispatcher: Okay, so she believes that she may have killed her mother?
Neighbor: Yeah.
Jessica: I just kept stabbing and stabbing and stabbing her.
And I took off her head …I ran to my other neighbor on the other side. And I had my mom’s head in my hand. I know this sounds insane.
