Summary

  • 36-year-old Stefano Cremasco-Cicero was booked on second-degree murder with a weapon after Miami police found his mother fatally stabbed in his Brickell apartment; jail records show no bond and an ICE detainer.
  • 4:47 a.m. police call followed a food delivery driver's encounter with Cremasco-Cicero in the lobby, where he was allegedly covered in blood, holding a knife and telling officers, "I was defending myself."
  • Surveillance video and building records showed him and his mother entering together around 10:32 p.m., then captured him about 4:26 a.m. in bloodstained clothes carrying a knife before changing shirts and leaving briefly.
  • A search of the apartment reportedly turned up several bloodied kitchen knives, blood-spattered shirts, broken glass and a broken wine bottle; police said the victim, not publicly identified, was visiting from Mexico.
  • DHS said ICE lodged the detainer on Aug. 5 and described Cremasco-Cicero as a Mexican national in the U.S. illegally, while investigators have not disclosed a motive beyond his self-defense claim.
