The motive behind the murder which is being described as ‘impulsive’ and not premeditated, is yet to be ascertained but investigators say there was sexual intercourse between the two before the murder took place.
The pair have known each other for a couple of months although Newthing arrived in Italy in 2015.
Further investigations into the case also revealed that the deceased had promised Desmond a job, but failed to do so.
