How much is the life of a boy of 18 years? Now we know, three years and six months.
Murder Aldrovandi policemen sentenced to three years and six months
The mother, now I can call them murderers
He was 18 years old, had a clean record, a regular guy died from the blows during the arrest
FERRARA - There's also Fred in the classroom, while a judge ordered the four police officers who helped him to die. Her eyes are closed, the split lip, bloody nose, his forehead bruised. His face, which was launched in mid-morning in a pile of leaflets from fifteen young anarchists, now rests on the tables of dark wood. His mother cries, "Now, we can finally call those cops killers."
Federico was eighteen years old, had a clean record, was a regular guy. On September 25, 2005 returning from the nightclub, it was dawn, he agitated for a tablet, the people that call the police, four police officers who arrive and take him with truncheons on the legs, head, everywhere, and kicked, then whisk in ground and handcuff him to lie down on him. But my heart breaks, chokes, dies like a dog. Two years of investigation, and attempts to silence because it covers half of the police there, Finally, two more years of process, 32 hearings, 15 experts, eight lawyers and a few tons of pain. The prosecutor had asked Nicola Proto three years and eight months for culpable excess, which led to manslaughter, against the agents Pollastri Luca, Enzo Pontani, Paolo Forlani and Monica Segatto ; Judge Francesco Caruso decided by three and six months. The audience applauds. The only defendant present (Enzo Pontani, the blond) remains unmoved, the father of Frederick - Lino Aldrovandi - says: "Now take off that uniform and should apologize. My son does not come back, but justice is done. "
There are ten meters between the mother and the policeman who never looks. He tries the floor, her other son Stephen, in the classroom. This woman knows that the blog, which opened in 2006 to seek the truth got to do, in the ruling, and that perhaps otherwise would have fallen silent. "I wanted to see them in handcuffs, patiently explained to me that is the third instance. And rightly so, as we believed, we have suffered. Those police officers acted out of sheer ferocity, without ever explaining why. Via that uniform, I think it as my husband. "
The last day was the longest. Awaiting the ruling in the dusty corridors, lit by yellow balls of light and cold, many wanted to know if it is true that the "servants of the state" sometimes become thugs, wild animals, which hit an unarmed boy, frightened and confused, in four to one . Witnesses said that Frederick, on the ground, begging for help and just said, but the four even called the ambulance that came later, in vain. We saw pictures of a heart split, and the blood around the face of the dead boy. "We have beaten bad for half an hour," said one of the four.
Two clubs were split even, and tried to make them disappear. He tried to pass F ivy Aldrovandi for toxic even if it was not, and affect some evidence of neighbors: the process of Ferrara has shown what can happen when the middle are the police. "In this process, some institutions of our country have lost credibility," said plaintiff's lawyer, Riccardo Venturi. On some white shirts in the audience, it says "truth and justice for Aldro. Carts cards come and go, until the evening.
"It's a decent burial for the poor Frederic," she whispered, after the ruling, his friend with tears in his eyes. Many cry and hug. "None of this could be forgiven," repeated his mother, Patricia Moretti . "If you have children, you know that it is time to wake up, when a house is filled with chaos and music, life and joy. To us, this was removed last four years we hear only silence. " He says it destroyed and happy, in tears and smile, speaking next to a living child and photograph of a dead child.
MAURIZIO CROSETTO Republic July 7, 2009
sentence four policeman killed Federico Aldrovandi
of Girolamo De Michele 
Enzo Pontani, Monica Segatto, Luca and Paolo Forlani Pollastri, the four policemen charged with the death of Federico Aldrovandi were sentenced .
The ruling granting the requests made by the prosecution (3 years 8 months), an order to all members of the patrol, not just one, and relatively short time that the court Caruso spent in chambers (as many have speculated a ruling in late at night, or morning after) emphasize the prosecution's story: Fred is not dead because "drugged." Frederick died because he was struck on the body with hands, feet and batons. Frederick died because he was shackled in a position that could - and could - do choke. to his cries for help because the four police officers have not shown a modicum of human compassion, and continued to hit him up to cause choking.
And after his death the corpse is left for hours without a shred it would cover, but at least one of the policemen feel with a clear conscience: "I can also say that I sleep soundly at night," said Enzo Pontani leaving the court. The agent Paolo Forlani, for its part, was not there on a mission in Abruzzo, for the G8.
Someone has decided that there is no risk of re-offending.
Monday, 29, on the family blog that has shattered the wall of silence, the parents have posted this text:
must be condemned because they are guilty. They are guilty because Fred is dead. I am guilty before you meet them because my son's heart was beating strong and healthy generous. Are guilty because they killed him by getting a terrible pain, knowing to do so.
"culpable excess of legitimate defense," reads the ruling.
While the judge read it, another case, no appeal, was pronounced aloud among those present:
MURDERERS!
