Grillo, grilled and grillismi
The latest news from the "Tribunal of Tempio Pausania" seen by Francesco Damato
More than two years – I repeat, two years, equivalent to more than 24 months and 730 days – from the good night in which Ciro Cirillo and four friends, all at least "coglioncelli" by definition of Beppe Grillo, the father of the former, they behaved in Sardinia with two girls in such a way as to obtain a report for rape; almost four months after that video in which the founder, guarantor, elevated of the 5 Star MoVement challenged the investigating magistrates to arrest him in place of his son and friends guilty only of "coglionaggine", in fact, perhaps for lack of education; three months from the preliminary hearing scheduled for November 15 to establish the developments of the criminal proceedings, do you know what are the latest from the court of Tempio Pausania? Where more than two years, I repeat, of investigations, interrogations, parades of lawyers and carabinieri were not even enough to know whether or not the boys deserve to be sent to trial.
The "latest" are at least three news, all certain and in my humble opinion sensational, although they have landed on the front pages of only two national newspapers: Libero and Il Dubbio. On the first with a lot of political interpretation entirely hostile to the suspects and Grillo senior, let's call it that, with a representation of the facts aimed at the accusation of an attempt to "cover up" the process. Sul Dubbio, in line with the guarantee of the newspaper, in a neutral way, telling the facts and leaving readers their free interpretation.
The first news is the transfer, ordered by the Superior Council of the Judiciary, of the deputy prosecutor Laura Bassani, who dealt with the investigations on the Grillo junior case with the prosecutor Giorgio Capasso, from Tempio to the juvenile court of Sassari: transfer ordered on 19 July and carried out on 4 August.
The second piece of news was given by the head of the Temple Prosecutor in a long interview with the Adn Kronos agency in which he explained that he was practically alone, and that he had uselessly asked for at least the so-called "postponed possession" of the new destination of his precious substitute. His departure therefore damaged an office and a court overburdened with proceedings and "media pressure" imaginable after that explosive video by Beppe Grillo in defense of his son and friends, when the president emeritus of the Constitutional Court Marta Cartabia replacing the pentastellato keeper Alfonso Bonafede.
The third piece of news comes, in truth, more from the Senate than from Tempio Pausania, where, however, it has already caused or increased the climate of precariousness, to say the least, in which everyone has been working for some time, understaffed and in inadequate premises, despite the grandeur of the building. In particular, it happened in the Senate that the vice president of the Justice Commission Elvira Lucia Evangelista, of the 5 Star Movement, proposed the absorption of the Tempio court by that of Olbia, and the consequent downgrading of the Tempio garrison to " proximity office ”, with all the inconveniences that usually occur in proceedings in progress in removals and the like.
I think that the old popular proverb inherited from the Latins can be applied to this whole complex story, which says: "a few words to the wise." Very few, almost none.
