Ms di Marineo was hitch-hiking to the Middle East with a fellow artist
An Italian woman artist who was hitch-hiking to the Middle East dressed as a bride to promote world peace has been found murdered in Turkey.
The naked body of Giuseppina Pasqualino di Marineo, 33, known as Pippa Bacca, was found in bushes near the northern city of Gebze on Friday.
She had said she wanted to show that she could put her trust in the kindness of local people.
Turkish police say they have detained a man in connection with the killing.
Reports say the man led the police to the body. Autopsy
Ms di Marineo was hitch-hiking from Milan to Israel and the Palestinian Territories with a fellow artist on their "Brides on Tour" project.
They had separated in Istanbul, planning to reunite in Beirut.
Ms di Marineo's sister, who had gone to Turkey to look for her, identified the body. An autopsy is being conducted in Istanbul.
"Her travels were for an artistic performance and to give a message of peace and of trust, but not everyone deserves trust," another sister, Maria, told the Italian news agency, Ansa.

Very sad, but kumbayah is no match for pure evil.
What is your real purpose in posting six year old news?
Poor sweetheart. Even though she was unbelievably naive, I salute her for trying to do something about the problem besides complain and blame others. She was probably one of those true-believers we used to call Flower Children. Refusing to acknowledge that all men have both light and dark natures. This happened in a Pre-Obama world. I think March of 08, but I’m sure her family has never gotten over the loss.
And what did she show instead?
only 33 poor kid...
SIGH
Islam is as Islam does.
Muslims do as Muslims have done.
Snowflakes trying to change the world and ending up dead, who would have guessed
You gotta look at the good side of all of this: She got to experience sex for the first time with a man. Other escapades with women don’t count.
When you are this dumb and naive you are blind to everything in the real world. Our social environment of today is really turning out some special people who wear blinders to prevent seeing the real world as it is.
No loss here.
Why are you posting about a news item from 2008?
The gene pool’s IQ just went up a notch.
You’re right; I have more respect for her (despite her naivete) than those (especially politicians) who openly lie to our faces about the threat posed by Muslims.
Self-correcting error. She is the kind of voter that allows evil to run rampant in the world by perpetuating the Cult of Political Correctness.....I have no sympathy for idiots.
This story is from 2008.
Well, I guess that question was answered.

Tragic. She'd have been safer hitchhiking from Milan to Minsk.
It’s been done.
I guess she’s no longer in the pinsk.
