Today, Anna Paola Battaglini is in prison, accused of attempted murder of her new partner. The 34-year-old circus artist was arrested for trying to kill the new companion with whom she had been living for some time in Verona.

Shocking images, which the 34-year-old woman decided to make public only after her ex-partner was acquitted of certain injury charges. “I want them to be seen by as many people as possible… Let them realize that my ex, the bully who reduced me like this, has been incredibly acquitted,” the woman told the Mail. On this occasion, Battaglini spoke of a “toxic relationship” and declared that she was “tired of these violent men who can get away with it.”
The aggression
A few months after this complaint, the 34-year-old man once again found himself at the center of a case of violence. But this time, she is not the victim.
