NAPLES – Former mayor of Villa Literno and former Democratic Party regional councilor, Enrico Fabozzi, has been acquitted for the second time on charges of external involvement with the Camorra. The ruling was handed down by the First Section of the Naples Court of Appeal, after the Supreme Court, in September 2022, overturned his previous acquittal, granted in 2021.
The panel of judges, chaired by Edoardo De Gregorio, declared the statute of limitations on two counts and acquitted Fabozzi on two other charges, deeming the "fact not to exist."

Fabozzi, mayor of Villa Literno from 2003 to 2009, was arrested in 2011 while serving as regional councilor in the Mixed group, after being suspended from the Democratic Party. In 2015, the court of Santa Maria Capua Vetere sentenced him to 10 years in prison, but in 2021 the Court of Appeal fully acquitted him.
The Supreme Court of Cassation then requested a reexamination of the statements of several collaborators of justice, particularly those of Nicola Schiavone, eldest son of Casalesi boss Francesco Schiavone, known as "Sandokan." However, the appeals judges found that these testimonies were insufficient to prove the former mayor's guilt.

It is interesting to see how justice worked in this case, even though there has been much discussion on this topic. I hope that people can better understand the complexities of the situation and not judge too quickly.
