Naples – The intimidation campaign against Francesco Emilio Borrelli shows no sign of abating. The Green-Sinister MP has once again found himself in the crosshairs of Rocco Crispino, a convicted felon who was previously sentenced to two and a half years in prison for the attack outside the San Giovanni Bosco hospital.
In a blunt post on his social media channels, Crispino issued a warning that leaves little room for interpretation: "I'll break Borrelli's neck. He survived the first time, but not the second. The pig must die."
These harsh words come despite the recent court ruling that also implicated Rosa and Anna La Malfa.
The reply: "No step back"
The parliamentarian, who has been on the front lines against urban degradation and crime for years, responded promptly. Borrelli reiterated his commitment to continue his campaign, seeing this latest attack as a sign of weakness among the hard-pressed clans.
"These individuals don't even stop when faced with convictions," Borrelli declared, "a sign of a sense of impunity that must be dismantled. These intimidations are proof that our work is hindering their interests. I won't back down an inch: Naples cannot remain hostage to those who thrive on violence and arrogance."
The MP then appealed to the authorities, urging the state not to lower its guard and to ensure clear penalties and widespread territorial control, the only antidote to the culture of oppression that still suffocates entire areas of the city.

This is yet another demonstration that our justice system has failed across the board. As always, due to a false concept of democracy and due process, our state, on the one hand, pays homage to and protects criminals, while, on the other, it undermines, endangers, and even allows the killing of honest and defenseless people. Thus, paradoxically, to protect the supposed rights of criminals, it systematically tramples on the rights of honest citizens. It is truly absurd, then, that free access to social media is granted not only to individuals like the one in question, but even to criminals and Camorristi convicted and already incarcerated for one or more murders, who can thus continue to threaten their victims, if not actually send coded messages, including death orders, and remain firmly at the helm of their clan.
The issue of intimidation is very serious and we cannot ignore it. It is important that the authorities take more effective measures to ensure the safety of everyone, not just politicians.
It's a shame the situation never changes. Violence seems increasingly widespread, and politicians continue to talk but don't act. Let's hope there's a change in Naples soon.
