Police in Italy were treated to a gory sight
when they were called to the scene of a murder where a woman had
killed her 3 children.
The officers describe the incident, which
occurred in Lecco near Milan in northern Italy, as shocking after
they found the mother and the apartment covered in blood.
37-year-old Edlira Dobrusci had stabbed her 3
daughters to death in their beds and is believed to have injured
herself on the wrists and neck with a kitchen knife because her
husband had left her.
Edlira was said to have been sedated by
hospital staff because she seemed confused and she screamed: ‘I’ve
killed them all’.
The girls named Simona, Casey and Lindsey and
aged 13, 10 and 4 were declared dead on the scene by officers and
health workers who spoke of seeing ‘rivers of blood’.
The father of the girls was said to have left
their mother on Friday and has been informed of their deaths.
Lt Colonel Rocco Italiano, of the paramilitary
Carabinieri police, said:
‘The whole apartment was covered in blood.
There was nothing that could be done for the victims – they were
all dead with multiple stab wounds from a kitchen knife.
‘The woman herself was also covered in blood
and in a very confused state. She kept screaming that she had
killed her children. The husband and father of the children had
left Italy on Friday and was traced to Albania.
‘They had split up and he was going home to
tell his family they were no longer together. They had financial
difficulties but that is no excuse for the level of violence on
three innocent children.’
An ambulance spokesman said:
‘The mother was taken to hospital where she
was sedated and also treated for wounds to her throat and
wrists. It looks like they were self inflicted – she was in such
a state. The flat was covered in blood.
‘The blood was flowing like a river all
across the apartment. It was a shocking sight as the guys
involved have children of their own as well. She kept saying her
husband had left her and she was in a desperate situation.’

A mother who stabbed to death her three
daughters was arrested by police covered in blood as she screamed:
'I've killed them all.'
Edlira Dobrusci, 37, was
said to be in a confused state and had to be sedated by staff at a
local hospital who said she also wounds to her wrists and neck -
possibly self inflicted.
Officers and paramedics
called to the scene spoke of seeing 'rivers of blood' as they
tried to help the three girls aged, 13, 10 and 4 but they were all
declared dead at the scene.
Neighbours called
emergency services after being woken by her blood curdling screams
at 6.30am local time in an apartment block at Lecco near Milan,
Italy.
Police said the woman was separated from
her husband and father of the children, and he had left her on
Friday to travel back to his native Albania where she was also
from.
He was traced to a relative's home close
to the country's second city Durres and informed of the deaths and
was said to have broken down hysterically.
A police spokesman said that all three girls,
named as Simona, Casey and Lindsey, had suffered multiple stab
wounds and they had died in their own bedrooms but all the bodies
had been dumped on the mother's bed.
Lt Colonel
Rocco Italiano, of the paramilitary Carabinieri police, said: 'The
whole apartment was covered in blood. There was nothing that could
be done for the victims - they were all dead with multiple stab
wounds from a kitchen knife.
'The woman herself
was also covered in blood and in a very confused state. She kept
screaming that she had killed her children. The husband and father
of the children had left Italy on Friday and was traced to
Albania.

Interior minister Angelino
Alfano said: 'We will not let whoever committed this terrible
crime get away with it.'
The woman was being
held in custody accused of murder and was expected to appear
before an investigating magistrate after confessing to the
killings while being questioned by police.
