About the shoot- ing, however, the only answer that could be obtained from him was that his head told him to do it and he did. He saild that he was mad because Gigenti had given him only $45 of the $100 he owed him, and that night, | * as Gigenti sat in the kitchen talkng 1o Marci, the eyewitness of the affair, Colericco said “something like elee- tricity came into my head and told me to kill him (Gigenti), so I went into the bedroom end from the drawer of the sewing ma- chine.
