On 31 May, an Italian prisoner was released from prison after 25 years in prison.
The prisoner, named Giovanni Brusca, was a notorious mafia member.
Born on February 20, 1957, he is 64 years old, his great-grandfather, grandfather and father were all former members of the Mafia, and his father was also the patriarch of the local Mafia, and was sentenced to life imprisonment for his involvement in several murders.
Paved by his father, Giovanni also became a mafia and joined the Corleonesi mafia family.
Giovanni is not tall, has a big beard, is often disheveled, and is very inconspicuous in the crowd,
But he is a fierce character who "doesn't talk much", and was once the right and left arm of Salvatore Riina, the mafia leader known as the "boss of the boss", and nicknamed "people's killer" in the circle.
After Giovanni's arrest in 1996, he confessed to being involved in more than 100 murders.
At the same time, he also began to cooperate with the police to help investigators track down the gangsters of several mafia attacks in the 1980s and 1990s.
By being a witness, he was commuted from life imprisonment to 26 years' imprisonment, and was finally released from prison 45 days before the completion of his sentence, with a parole period of 4 years.
The news of Giovanni's release quickly caused resentment among the population, especially among the victims' families.
Not only because he kills people like hemp, but also because his methods are fierce and frightening.
Looking at a few of the most famous cases he committed, it is not difficult to understand the feelings of the people........
[To show the power of the mafia, blow up the famous anti-mafia judge]
Born in 1939 in the city of Palermo in the Autonomous Community of Sicily, judge Giovanni Falcone was a prominent figure in Italy.
He shares the same name as the mafia criminal Giovanni Brusca, but stands on opposite ends.
Judge Falcone has spent most of his career bringing down the Sicilian mafia.
During his tenure as a magistrate in Palermo, he led a famous mafia trial called the Maxi Trial from February 1986 to January 1992.
Prosecutors prosecuted a total of 475 mafia, provided substantial evidence of crimes, and the trial lasted 6 years.
This trial is considered the most important trial of the Sicilian mafia and the largest in the history of the world.
The trial dampened the mafia's vigor, and the mafia naturally disobeyed, and also hated the judges and other public officials involved in the trial.
Thus, during and after the trial, several public officials were murdered in retaliation,
Among them are Judge Falcone and his close friend and colleague Judge Paolo Borsellino.
The two of them were good friends who grew up together, living on the same street as children.
Some of their childhood friends went astray under the influence of the mafia, but both chose to side with law and justice and become comrades in arms on the "down mafia front."
After co-leading the Maxi trial, Judge Falcone was transferred to Rome to reorganize the Italian prosecution system and set up regional offices to combat the mafia.
A series of reforms were so successful that the mafia realized that he was more of a threat in Rome than in Palermo.
Without doing anything, Judge Falcone was on the mafia's retaliation list.
It was Giovanni, who had just been released from prison, who was planning to carry out the retaliatory action.
In order to show the power and deterrence of the Sicilian mafia, Giovanni deliberately chose the location of the murder in Palermo.
Knowing that Judge Falcone had to travel between Palermo and Rome every week, he chose to carry out the assassination on the A29 highway between the airport and the judge's home.
They first conducted an experiment in which they put four hundred kilograms of explosives in a tunnel on the highway.
Giovanni asked his men to use the headlights of the car to simulate the car speeding by, randomly detonating the bomb and observing the power of the bomb.
On May 23, 1992, while Judge Falcone's vehicle was passing the highway, Giovanni detonated a pre-placed bomb in a building on a nearby hill.
The car was blown out of shape, and the scene was in a mess.
The explosion resulted in the death of Judge Farcone,
He was killed along with his wife, Ms. Francesca Morvillo, who was also a judge and the only female judge in Italy to have died in an assassination.
and three police officers responsible for protecting Judge Farcone.
(Mr. and Mrs. Falcone)
The death of Judge Falcone and his wife caused a lot of sensation in Italy at that time,
On the day of the funeral, thousands of people gathered at the church to pay their respects to the couple, the funeral was broadcast live on state television, routine television was suspended and parliament declared the day a day of mourning.
And just 57 days after Giovanni committed the crime, Judge Falcone's close friend Judge Borsellino also died in another mafia-made explosion.
The explosion claimed 6 lives, and in addition to the judge himself, 5 police officers responsible for protecting him were also killed.
Two explosions, 11 lives,
This is the bloody debt owed by the mafia members led by Giovanni.
[The abduction and killing of an 11-year-old child after the dissolution of the body, the method is cruel and disgraceful]
No case shows Giovanni's cruelty and ruthlessness more than the kidnapping and murder of 11-year-old boy Giuseppe Di Matteo.
If his assassination of the judge was a public vendetta, there was no justification for killing innocent children.
The little boy's father, Santo Di Matteo, was a former mafia member, and later turned into a police witness.
He had testified to several participants in the 1992 Judge Farcone bombing,
As a result, he was regarded as a traitor by the mafia, and even more so by Giovanni, who planned the bombing.
After cooperating with the police, Santo went into hiding, protected by the police.
In order to force him to appear and retract his testimony, Giovanni came up with a vicious plan.
On November 23, 1993, several mafia members disguised themselves as police officers and found Giuseppe, the son of traitor Santo.
They lied that they would take the little boy to his father, whom he had not seen for a long time, and kidnap him.
Giovanni and his gang imprisoned the innocent 11-year-old child for 26 months.
During this time he has been torturing him and taking pictures, sending them to the child's father, Santo, threatening him to retract his testimony.
Santo could not retract the testimony casually, but also worried about the safety of his son,
In desperation, he personally returned to Sicily to try to negotiate with Giovanni's gang.
But instead of waiting for his son to be freed, he heard a terrible news—
Giovanni ordered his men to strangle the boy who had been tortured for 779 days.
The boy's body was then thrown into a bucket of acid solution to destroy evidence, leaving no bones left for his family.
After Giovanni was arrested, he once confronted the boy's father, Santo, in court.
Faced with the revenge of killing his son, Santo tearfully said to the judge,
"I promised to cooperate with the court, but I can't give any assurances in the face of this beast."
"If you let me stay alone with him for two minutes, I'll cut off his head."
Santo was so emotional that he was about to rush over like Giovanni, only to be stopped in time by the bailiffs.
[Creating a terrorist attack that affects the remnants of Italian civilization]
In January 1993, salvatore Riina, the mafia leader mentioned at the beginning of the article, was arrested.
From this time until May 1996, Giovanni became one of the most powerful mafia leaders as Riina's right and left hand.
In 1993, judge Farcone, who focused on fighting the mafia, although he had been assassinated, the crackdown on the mafia continued,
In retaliation, Giovanni orchestrated a series of terrorist attacks.
He selected several famous Tourist Attractions in Italy, even famous cultural monuments, which killed 10 people and injured 71 others.
On the street of Dei Georgofili, on one side of the street is the Arno River, on the other side is the famous Uffizi Gallery, and the 250-year-old Florence Academy of Natural Sciences.
On 27 May 1993, Giovanni ordered a car filled with explosives to detonate an explosion on Dei Georgofili Street.
The explosion killed 5 people and injured 48 others.
The dead included a college female employee, her police husband and their 50-day-old daughter, a 9-year-old girl and a third-year architecture student.
Not only did it cause casualties, but the explosion also damaged the surrounding ancient buildings.
Among them is the famous Uffizi Gallery.
The museum was originally the office of the prominent Medici family, and was later used to store the art collected by the family.
The works of leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo, Raphael, Botticelli, Tintoretto, Rembrandt, Rubens and other artistic giants are on display in the gallery.
It is the pride of the Florentine people and a must-visit place for almost every tourist.
But the explosion caused $1 million worth of damage to the museum building, affecting at least 150 paintings and 50 sculptures.
The worst damage was in the Neope Hall, where some frescoes and 17th-century paintings were destroyed and some sculptures were affected.
Most of the artwork has been restored,
Some paintings are badly damaged,
including the Dutch painter Herrit van Honthorst's The Cult of the Shepherd (later restored),
and Italian painter Bartolomeo Manfredi's Card Player (still incomplete after restoration).
Via Palestro, Milan. On the evening of 27 July 1993, Giovanni and his gang parked their car full of explosives on via Paristro in Milan.
A nearby policeman noticed white smoke coming out of the car and told the fire brigade to come and deal with it.
Then the car suddenly exploded, killing the policeman, 3 firefighters and 1 Moroccan immigrant lying on a nearby bench.
Five people were killed and 12 injured.
The buildings facing the street were also damaged to varying degrees, some of the exterior walls collapsed, and some of the window glass was shattered.
Moreover, after the gas pipeline was blown up, it also caused another explosion, which made the loss even worse.
Not far from the location of the incident, is the Milano Modern Art Gallery, the explosion caused damage to some of the artistic exhibition halls.
· Piazza San Juan in Florence and Via San Teodoro in Rome.
In the two car bomb explosions made by Giovanni's gang, fortunately no one died, only 11 people were injured.
But the explosion in Florence damaged part of the Church of San Giovanni, which was later repaired.
in Piazza San Juan
It was because of these crimes that Giovanni became the target of the Italian police.
On 20 May 1996, Giovanni, then 39 years old, was arrested in a small house in rural Sicily.
He was having dinner with his girlfriend, their young son, and his brother, sister-in-law and two nephews.
After a surprise attack, Giovanni was captured and taken back to the police station.
Hearing this exciting news, dozens of police officers in the police station cheered, hugged each other, and honked their horns to celebrate.
When the bearded Giovanni was escorted from the police car, someone ripped off his mask as if to say, "No more fear of the mafia."
It is also said that someone bypassed the police and punched Giovanni in the face.
After being indicted, Giovanni's crimes were liquidated one by one —
In 1997, although he asked the Santa family for forgiveness in court, he was sentenced to 30 years in prison for the murder of the young boy Giuseppe;
That same year, he was sentenced to 26 years in prison for assassinating Judge Falcone.
In 2009, Giovanni was sentenced to life in prison for another murder.
(Schematic)
Imprisoned for all these years, Giovanni had to learn to be obedient, and he once apologized for his crimes in an interview,
He also began to cooperate with the police, "I call the mafia death factory, let me put an end to it." ”
At first, no one believed that he was really remorseful, thinking that this was just a ruse for him to get a commutation.
In the first three months, the clues he provided were either unverifiable or erroneous, and more and more officials demanded strict enforcement of the "meritorious service" rule.
But then he did provide some useful clues, and he did well during his imprisonment.
In 2004 Giovanni was rewarded with a week of being released from prison every 45 days to visit his family;
Later, because of his cooperation with the police, the sentence was reduced to 26 years;
On May 31 this year, he was released from prison 45 days before the completion of his sentence, with a four-year parole.
The evil mafia criminals, who took so many lives, were locked up for 25 years and released.
The most incomprehensible are the victims' families.
Judge Falcone's sister Maria said she was "saddened" to hear the killer's release, but that it was a right given to Giovanni by law.
Ms Tina Montinaro, the wife of a bodyguard who died at the hands of Giovanni, said in an interview with the media that she was "very angry".
"The country didn't stand with us, and 29 years later we don't know the truth about the murder, but Giovanni, who ruined my family, is free."
Some government officials also expressed confusion.
Enrico Letta, leader of the center-left Democratic Party, said on a radio show: "It's like punching you in the stomach and you can't breathe. ”
Matteo Salvini, leader of Italy's right-wing coalition, said: "After 25 years in prison, the mafia boss Giovanni Brusca became a free man. This is not the 'fairness' that Italians deserve. ”
（Matteo Salvini）
Some netizens expressed dissatisfaction, and some people said that Giovanni was released from prison and probably did not have good fruit to eat.
Sad news.
Soon someone will kill him. He wouldn't live long.
For his former accomplices, his head is now worth a lot.
Legally, perhaps Giovanni has been punished,
But in the hearts of many people, the punishment he deserves is far from over.
