“Montreal Father’s Murder Trial Enters Third Tense Week in New York Over Daughter’s Death”

During the ongoing trial in Elizabethtown, New York, a jury was presented with a nearly five-hour-long video reconstructing the alleged route taken by a man accused of murdering his nine-year-old daughter.

The detailed video was created using data from the man’s phone and his vehicle’s location, shedding light on the sequence of events leading up to the tragic incident.

Today marks the conclusion of the third week of the trial of Luciano Frattolin, who is facing charges of second-degree murder and concealing a human corpse in connection with the death of his daughter, Melina Frattolin, a resident of Montreal.

Frattolin, aged 46, maintains his innocence and has been held in custody without bail since his arrest in July 2025.
