To clarify, the anti-mafia trial #ndrangheta #RinascitaScott:

Various thoughts (in English)

1) it impresses the foreign media because it has 350 defendants. In Italy we are used to maxi trials, even if obviously 350 are a lot here as well.

2 - But Crimine-Infinito trial with 330 defendants was much more significant than Rinascita Scott in what it taught us about the #ndrangheta. The Italian media get excited about the arrests, but follow trials are less and less, they go on too long.

3 - It is a colossal trial - it unhinges the Vibonese mafia and relations with politics, businesses, Freemasonry, and for this - really for this - it deserves to be talked about. A mafia that moves millions of money and kg of cocaine, violent still suffocating the territory.

4- On the mafia and freemasonry / politics, this trial builds on the results of Gotha and Stragista, the 2 trials that really - still underway in Reggio - are rewriting the history of Reggio Calabria and Italy.

5 - the effects of this trial are not yet 'predictable', but we already know how resilient is the 'ndrangheta. An important but not revolutionary trial and not in all respects. Complicated trial, for the management, for its realization, but this is a VERY precise judicial choice.
