The Independent is reporting that Edi Vesco, an Italian author best known for Il Magico Libro – I Segreti Del Mondo Di Harry Potter (The Magic Book – The Secrets of Harry Potter’s World), recently died. Her son has since admitted to both attacking and murdering her.

Quote:

An investigator described the case as "a truly terrifying story – a frightening family drama" and said the murder had happened at the climax of a violent row which erupted when the boy told his mother he was planning to leave school and educate himself for his final exams.

The full story can be found at the above link but please be aware that the details are both graphic and disturbing.

Our thoughts go out to her family & friends at this hard time.
