Killed former partner in front of the US girl, Albanian Renato Mujaj in front of the court seeks defence lawyer

The 34-year-old Albanian, Renato Mujaj, has appeared in an American court charged with a series of crimes, including the most shocking charge of killing his former partner, Samantha Saliaj.

Prosecutors in Largo, Florida, have indicated that Mujaj's criminal acts occurred in a short period of time, and the situation has quickly stalled.

The judge has described in detail the charges weighing him, and he has established a wealth guarantee of $50,000.

However, it has become clear that this guarantee cannot be used because of the serious nature of the first - degree murder prosecution.

During the trials, the judge has firmly confirmed that Mujaj will not have the right to meet his daughter if he is to be released from prison in the future.

Meanwhile, the 34-year-old has maintained a cold, unfeeling attitude during the session, asking only one question: “would you appoint a lawyer for me?

The judge's response was affirmative as it was shown that his legal defender was present in the courtroom.

Erida Caudili, who works as a police officer in the United States, was this Wednesday invited to Euronews Albania to talk about the serious event happening in Florida, where an Albanian killed his ex-wife in front of the minor girl.

She said that Renato Mujaj, the author of the crime, may be sentenced to death, but this case will take a long time to consider.

There are death sentences in Florida. Mr. Mujaj was charged with murder on purpose. Presumably killing gets the maximum death penalty. These issues are very difficult.

He is innocent until the state pleads not guilty. He is currently in custody. These cases range from 3-4 months to 15 years to review the penalty measure. He then has the right to Apely”, Erida Caudili said.
