February 15th: Enrico Forti Kills (1998)

Power can breed something dangerous within someone. A sense of invincibility that could cost someone their life. On February 15th 1998 a man was killed during a business visit. Though there are arguments on who, exactly, the killer is, power and money is the motivation regardless.
