Camorra, the repentant D'Amico: 'I wanted to kill Michele Minichini because he was with Ciro Rinaldi'

Umberto D'Amico: "I wanted to kill Michele Minichini because he was with Ciro Rinaldi," is part of the testimony given by informer Umberto D'Amico the other day in courtroom 211 of the sixth section of the Naples Tribunal, where Ciro Cerrato di Ponticelli (represented by attorney Loredana Di Luca) and the Barra boss Gennaro Aprea (represented by attorney Giuseppe Milazzo) are accused. The two are charged with an armed raid that started in Barra and headed toward the center of Naples. The witness , son of Gigiotto and nephew of Salvatore o' Pirata, began by reiterating that he had commanded San Giovanni until before the murder of Luigi Mignano. Cross-examination proved very tense for the witness from Rione Villa, who repeatedly paused under the defense team's pressing questions. The young Umberto allegedly claimed to have met with men who were his enemies at the time, who asked him not to touch Michele o' Tiger, the son of Ciro Minichini, who, with his brother Alfredo, now had an autonomous clan in Ponticelli.
