Genoa – The Genoa court sentenced Mario Ubaldo Rossi to 27 years in prison, for the police forces of half of Italy simply Marietto. The man accused by the Genoa Prosecutor’s Office and the flying squad of having led a gang in the middle of the second decade of the 2000s, a group that he planned robberies and aimed to run gambling in the Ligurian capital. To earn money, obviously, but also to provide financial help to Rossi’s former cronies, in prison for past affairs.
We remind you that Marietto Rossi is already in prison, where he is serving a life sentence he received for the murder of a drug courier, Giovanni Lombardi. Murdered by gunshots in Vignolo di Mezzanego, in the Tigullio hinterland, on 21 March 2015. That day the victim had arrived at the appointment with two kilograms of cocaine. But, according to Rossi’s plans, the person who brought them should have been Giacinto Pino, an important name in the world of drug dealing in the historic center of Genoa (later convicted for the narcotic drug intended for Marietto). In the end, however, the latter had sent Lombardi, whose body was supposed to be buried in a hole by Rossi and some accomplices. However, the police had blocked them in front of the pit. The murder was the de facto end of the investigation into Rossi’s latest gang. An investigation that started from the robbery at the San Colombano Certenoli post office, in Val Fontanabuona, and which gave rise to the trial that led to this latest conviction.
The investigation was coordinated by deputy prosecutor Marco Zocco. In addition to Rossi, Massimo Antonini, a former boxer from Livorno, considered Marietto’s man of action, was sentenced. For him the sentence is 8 years in prison. As well as Marco Dalta, from Leivi, in Tigullio. According to the flying squad investigators he was one of Rossi’s drivers, chosen by him because he was essentially unknown to the police force and therefore potentially unsuspected during any traffic checks. The sentence decided for him by judges Adriana Petri, Chiara Blanc and Alice Serra is 2 years of imprisonment. The three defendants were also acquitted of some charges due to statute of limitations. And Rossi and Dalta from others also on the merit. Acquittals which, however, did not change the picture outlined by the Prosecutor’s Office.
Completely acquitted instead Rosanna Ceroni, Rossi’s partner, and Fabio Ciaglia, resident in the Milan area. The latter due to the statute of limitations on complaints. The first for a mix between acquittal on the merits and prescription. And the statute of limitations also dropped the charges against Luciano Sussman, 78 years old and former playmate of the serial killer Donato Bilancia. Defending the defendants, among others, are the lawyers Pietro Bogliolo, Stefano Sambugaro, Raffaella Multedo and Francesca Agosto.
