The Murder of Victoria Cafasso | UNSOLVED

[@ingridfong-daley5899]

You could see how devastated the father Guiseppe was in the photographs. When you said he died right after of a heart attack, it didn't seem surprising. You could see he was wracked with sadness.

[@jessH090]

It’s amazing how we can actually die it a broken heart. Emotions really can kill you.

I was a teenager when this happened and remember it so vividly. It shocked our whole state, and it was the start of my interest in true crime as I followed every news story waiting to hear that they caught the person responsible. I still hold out hope that one day they’ll find who did it. Thank you for sharing Victoria’s case ❤

[@jamesl9371]

I believe that even small police departments should be prepared for investigations of murder. They can happen anywhere and gathering the evidence is crucial. And they should call in assistance from expert investigators

[@AthyDuGard]

Thank you, DC. Us Aussies sure do appreciate all of the cases you cover here. Hadn't heard of this one. RIP Victoria & Giuseppe. Just a side note, if it's pronounced like the Melbourne suburb of the same name, then we say "bo-morris". 🖤 🐨

[@skreemqueen7520]

My sympathy to Victoria’s mother and loved ones. I can’t imagine her mom losing her daughter and then her husband. I hope eventually answer will be found and justice will be served. May Victoria and her father rest in peace 🕊️

[@KohalaLover]

Seventeen stab wounds. Brutal. She bled out, poor Victoria. My cousin (male) bled out on a California beach. Tasmanian police never preserved the footprints. I’m sorry for the terrible, tragic way in which this kind lady passed. I agree Victoria’s father passed on due to grief and horror. RIP Victoria & Giuseppe.

Omg! What a terrible loss! I live in Australia, visited St Helen’s last December…didn’t know this…unbelievable no one see or heard anything in middle of a day…poor sweetheart…

I do believe what happened to her contributed to her father dying of a heart attack so tragic what happened RIP to both of them

[@masudashizue777]

Where in the world can you go to be absolutely safe? Not even on a quiet beach in Australia can you expect to be left alone. I doubt she's done anything wrong--she was just visiting.

As a woman you are never safe 😖

[@sharongrigg5336]

How disgustingly sad & tragic that she couldn't even walk along a beach in the middle of the day with other people around without this happening..is there nowhere left in this world safe?

[@patriciajrs46]

I hate it when officials don't rush what they can and preserve as much evidence as possible before the tide destoyed evidence. They should always take pictured! The nature of the attack, all of the stabbing, seems like she could have been attacked by a female. As you narrated it sounded like a crime of passion. It's quite sad that this young woman died. Thank you for all of your hard work.

[@eadweard.]

Why a female?

[@patriciajrs46]

@@eadweard. Like I said, I think it was a crime of passion. I am thinking it was a jealous rage. I am not saying that men can't have jealousy and commit stabbing fits, but it just seems more likely that a woman would continue to stab at the back of this woman even after all of the frontal damage.

[@eadweard.]

@@patriciajrs46 Why would a woman be more likely to stab in such a way?

[@patriciajrs46]

@@eadweard. I believe that women, in a jealous rage, are much more irrational. Men, even when jealous, don't seem to stab erratically. Before you ask, no I am not a psychologist, nor am I an expert. These are my suppositions and my opinions. That's all.

The Surfside Motel looks like the kind of place that doesn't require too much ID from guests; possibly it was someone staying there & management told staff not to talk to the Police.

[@magnus1001]

Yes, it looked a little sketchy. The kind of place that when you travel you hope is not the only available accommodation in the area!

Poor Victoria, I feel so bad for the family. I live in Tasmania, such a terrible thing to happen. For a little island we have had some terrible things happen. Murder and disappearances of tourists and of course-the Port Arthur Massacre which changed our country's gun laws. But it really is a beautiful island, it just baffles me that things have happened here.

[@billiejomcmillan7632]

Considering the nature of the attack, it seems kind of personal. Like the killer had something against her.

[@jamesl9371]

Or maybe it’s just a deranged psychopath

[@killertoxicity8604]

​@jamesl9371 No the attack was definitely personal. 17 stabs are hard to do unless you're feeling some kind of strong emotion at the person. Stabbing in itself is very personal as you have to be up close and personal with the person you stab. More than likely someone she knew killed her.

[@jamesl9371]

[@hevoskuiskaaja2008]

Just a thought: did they actually check if Hilda‘s knife match the stab wounds? 😬 It‘s weird that Hild was carrying the knife with her to protect herslef, then Victoria is mistaken for Hilda and Victoria is stabbed? Can it be that Hilda actually was there?

[@killertoxicity8604]

I think Hilda and her husband did it. They inserted themselves into the investigation very quickly and even gave clues that lead to someone getting questioned. I couldn't fathom why they killed her but my guess is some disagreement or other. Personally I feel maybe they wanted her to be their 3rd in the marriage as my own research into this showed that Victoria and the two got along so well they were like family. Maybe Hilda got jealous that her husband liked Victoria more? Who knows but I feel like there's more to the story with Hilda and her husband

[@waynemoseley691]

Well done good report 👏👏

[@COOKIEDOUGHTHEGREAT]

So pretty so sad to a life well lived Victoria , rest in heaven

[@Carolbearce]

This is such a tragic story for this family.

[@planetoidmedia8486]

i think like many others here, suspect Hilda has more involvement with this case than she lead on. first red flag was the two witnesses claiming they though the girl was hilda until later told otherwise.. and funnily enough Hilda was at that same beach at the same time, maybe it was her walking along the beach, and maybe they didnt see victoria as she was laying down but potential saw hilda walking towards victoria. the "carry a knife" thing is completely weird to me as an australian the only women i know that would carry something like a knife "for protection" arent living in a coastal rural town with a popultion of 300 or so.. this seems like a cover up and ibet hilda most likely knew the police being such a small town everyone knows everyone in aus. and what about the cousin? was he ever a suspect? so many unanswered questions but rip victoria and thoughts with remaining family

[@eeeismebaker9406]

I think Hilda might be the guilty one. She might of saw her with her husband and grew jealous. She seemed to have things happen to her and the same things missing as Victoria. Seriously her underwear disappeared and she never reported it or mentioned the crazy run ins with the weird guy before? All this could just be to cover her tracks. She also carried a knife with her all the time and Victoria was stabbed to death. I wonder if they even looked at her knife? Plus she wasn't sexually assaulted which could mean she was killed by a woman. The extreme way she was killed, with bludgeoning and 17 stab wounds, usually means a known person with personal ties to the victim is the killer.

[@eadweard.]

Half-baked drivel.

[@rondohatton7292]

It is a possibility.

[@natep1186]

[@chuckh5999]

strange that separate locals (of 350 population) would get the ID wrong. Red flag !

[@tiannaspence9671]

I was literally thinking the same thing. If she was killed with a hunting knife and Hilda has one and she was the first and last person to see her, why wouldn’t she be a person of interest?

[@jacksonstarky8288]

I've followed a lot of true crime on TV, paper, and the Internet, and it seems like non-Americans go travelling and meet untimely ends or disappearances, and Americans stay in the U.S. and meet untimely ends or disappearances. It's sad.

[@laurametheny1008]

Thank you DC. Very sad. Poor Dad. I hope they are at peace, together. God bless Mom and the rest of the loved ones🙏💔🕊️🦌

[@jamesl9371]

He had an alibi? I don’t trust alibis. Sometimes they prove to be fake

[@Ms.Laterholmes]

There is no DNA to recover? How is that possible?

[@Quantum-1157]

I really think someone from Italy did this , tracking her to the beach in Australia. A jilted secret lover? An ex-boyfriend? Someone felt wronged by her? 1. 17 stab wounds so it’s personal (no other such attacks on the beach or vicinity) 2. Man asking how to exit beach (so not local and eager to get away). 3. Someone tracking her and on seeing she is alone on the beach struck and ran away. Just my 2 cents. Police should check Italian male passengers travelling alone out of major Australian airports over the next 3 to 7 days after the murder

[@serenhafwilliams-davies5915]

Heard this before. Shocking Unbelievable

[@narelle-creative-arts]

[@killertoxicity8604]

Hear me out, what if the woman she was mistaken for and her husband killed her? Some dispute could have happened and they did insert themselves into the investigation by giving the police the information about a weird man asking for directions and saying that underwear was stolen. Idk just something seems to be overlooked there, or somethings missing.

[@patrickpettafor9439]

Seeing how a lot of people were mistaking her for Hilda, could it be a case of mistaken identity?

[@planetoidmedia8486]

or that they just didnt see victoria laying down sunbathing and they genuinely saw hilda walking in that direction before she attacked her// hilda is prime suspect for me

[@sparklypoet1454]

RIP Victoria I'd be interrogating Hilda. Victoria was stabbed to death. Hilda said she carried a knife with her at all times for protection. Or was that just a convenient cover to hide the fact that she had a knife that she used to stab Victoria to death.?

Too bad the cops did a lousy job at the crime scene they walked all over the evidence.😐

[@Ontheroxxwithsalt]

If you want to do a CRAZY case that many people have never heard but that will resonate with people may I suggest Pamela Mastropietro from Italy. I just became aware of the case and it's insane what happened to her. People will relate to the story because Pamela was a young girl, caught up with drugs. She ran away from the rehab she was in and went to a terrible, drug-infested area of Italy and right into the clutches of a group of Nigerian drug dealers who gave her drugs until she passed out and then did unspeakable things to her. It's a horrible story and it has caused people to question the idea of immigrants coming into first world countries from third world countries and the chaos and crime they bring due to the differences in the level of civilization.

[@mariajosebrenes8958]

Wow, I really hope the people who are actually blaming immigration for this kind of cases realize that’s just hateful and inaccurate. The problem is not and has never been immigration or 3rd world countries.

[@scotlandshistory]

I wonder if this was a case of mistaken identity rather than a targeted attack.

[@marlenedouglas7957]

Of all places Tasmania is one of the safest places. You would expect her to be killed in Italy.

[@seandelap8587]

Anyone could lie about having an alibi though so that doesn't necessarily mean that the suspect isn't guilty

[@eadweard.]

What a hopelessly confused remark. They ruled him out because he _had_ an alibi, not because he just _claimed_ to have one.

[@sasapejcin3568]

Also their family and friends can lie and give them alibis!

[@beautifulsurprise9424]

Alibis are usually not used to rule people out unless they can be proven. If someone says they were at home asleep alone at the time of someone’s murder, that kind of alibi will not cause police to rule them out as a suspect whereas if someone said they were at Walmart 50 miles away at the time of someone’s murder and can be seen on surveillance video at the Walmart 50 miles away then the police can feel confident that person did not physically kill the other person themselves and can rule them out as a suspect. So no, just claiming to be somewhere without any proof or without several people verifying that you were there ain’t gonna do it.
