The “tsarina” of drug trafficking

Among those convicted, Tiziana De Donato stands out, wife of the boss Bruno Piacente, already in prison. The woman, according to investigators, had taken control of the organization, managing with an iron fist the drug dealing area of ​​the "219", considered one of the most profitable in Campania. The clan's turnover was estimated at hundreds of thousands of euros, the proceeds of a widespread and well-structured drug dealing activity.

Ostentatious luxury and control of the territory

The clan's power was manifested through a lavish lifestyle: luxury cars, tastefully furnished villas, exclusive trips, sumptuous parties and investments in commercial and real estate activities. An ostentatious luxury, used to assert control over the territory and intimidate residents, who were even prevented from free access to their homes.

A hard blow to organized crime
