The funeral of Baldassarre Nero, the commander of the Carabinieri station of Macerata Campania, took place this morning outside the Marcianise cemetery.

The parish priest of San Simeone, Don Antonio Piccirillo, celebrated the function. He was a great friend of his and was as stunned by the tragedy as, if not more than, others. They had also spoken after he was admitted to Cotugno and there was every hope that Covid would spare the “Lion”. Instead, at 4 am on Monday that heart that had been thrown so many times over the obstacle stopped beating.

Nero, a resident of Capodrise, will be buried in the cemetery of Marcianise, a city that is paying him due homage along with Grazzanise, Macerata Campania, Recale and Portico, towns where he made his mark as a marshal and which have all proclaimed a day of mourning for this day. The civil authorities of the communities involved and the military, who have lost a beacon in the battle for legality, will be waiting for him.

Baldassarre Nero: Today the last farewell to the Commander

The Camorra wanted him dead, Covid succeeded. Marshal Nero was on the front lines against the Camorra. An enemy greatly feared by organized crime, which in the past had also organized an attack on the barracks where he served, in Grazzanise. That fact became known also thanks to the reconstruction of collaborators of justice.

 MESSAGE FROM THE MINISTER OF DEFENSE

The Minister of Defense, Lorenzo Guerini, expressed his personal and the ministry's "heartfelt closeness" to the family of the lieutenant of the Carabinieri ,Baldassarre Nero for the premature passing. “My deepest condolences and deepest sympathy go to his wife and daughter,” Guerini said in a statement.

A life spent in the Carabinieri, for his work that he carried out with dedication and a spirit of service, always at the service of citizens.
