Woman Hitch-Hiking to Promote World Peace Murdered

That’s a shame.

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 city of Gebze on Friday.

She had said she wanted to show that she could put her trust in the kindness of local people.

  1. She had said she wanted to show that she could put her trust in the kindness of local people.

    Yeah, that worked out real good for her, didn’t it!

    Wonder where the dress wound up?  Just thinking of the “My Name Is Earl” episode about the stolen wedding dress.

  2. I guess world peace won’t grow out of an outstretched thumb.
