Lucy, come home - a husband's cry into the silence
Paolo Amenta stands in front of large "missing" poster of his wife of 46 years, Lucia, who disappeared three weeks ago.
Heartwrenching ... immediately drawn in I found myself googling "Lucia Amenta, Missing" hoping to discover that she had been found and was now safely home with her family who so desperately searched after this seemingly much cherished woman.
My search results provided a fairly large amount of news articles dated from when Lucia Amenta of Fawkner, Australia first went missing in the month of January, 2008. From which, I was especially drawn towards the story below...
Help find my mum - son
Police have not ruled out foul play in the disappearance of Lucia “Lucy” Amenta.
Mrs Amenta was cooking chicken schnitzels for a family lunch on Saturday, January 19, just before she disappeared.
John Amenta fought back tears last week as he explained that his mother, who has lived in Sydney Rd with his father Paul for 29 years, said she was going to walk to visit a friend that morning.

However, from what I am currently seeing/finding, there have yet to be any charges issued regarding the apparent murder of Lucia, in fact, I'm pressed to find any new information at all.With the most recent online search results dated 12/21/09...
Cops quiet on granny-in-barrel killing
Thus I'm left here, sadly wondering...what really happened to this Grandma, what in real life monster committed this heinous crime and (although admittedly impossible to find a satisfying answer to) most of all WHY ???

Yes its very strange that no further information has been published by the police? Where are there investigations heading? What have they found out? Do they know how Lucia Amenta died? Any clues on where she has been for the time she went missing to the time when she was found?
Perplexed that the police still hasn't found the killer. Does this indicate that they haven't not done their job so well this time around? Considering that we have seen such an easy/quick resolve of the other missing/ murder cases such as the Gurshan Singh, and Rockefellar deaths.
Yes why so silent?
Sad news to share ... Lucia's body has been recovered ... http://activelyaware.blogspot.com/2010/11/body-of-once-missing-lucia-amenta-has.html
The list of suspects can only be 2 people long, surely - it is just a case of working out which one did it. No simple task. The method of death may not be any help - I hope that there is news soon.
It can only be john, Paul senior, or Paul junior. Paul junior was cut out of the family inheritance. I bet it was Paul junior
Yeh. That's right. John was given everything including all the proceeds from the sale of property. Paul was given nothing. And Lucia hated Paul's wife Lilliana with a passion.
