[edit] Sacco-Vanzetti Revisited
Reading this article about a notorious murder makes me think of similarities to the Sacco-Vanzetti case in the USA in the 1920's when Sicilian immigrants (also anarchists or syndicalists) were scapegoated for a crime (which they probably did not commit) and executed. In the Italian case, it appears that the Italian magistrates were not swayed by public opinion to the extent that the framed Albanian immigrants were similarly dispatched. This is a truly interesting case and deserves further expansion. PeterHuntington 19:46, 27 February 2007 (UTC)
