From the early days of their marriage, Casati Stampa was inviting men to have sex with his wife while he was watching and often taking pictures, while he also kept a diary of these events. The couple, during summertime, were mostly staying in the "rugged" island of Zannone, located off the coast between Rome and Naples, in a villa situated on the summit of the island, in which they were throwing nightly "wild parties" that involved "heavy drinking" and group sex and lasted until morning

He then turned the weapon on his head and fired. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Casati_Stampa_murders
