Ottaviano Del Turkish, then President of the Abruzzo region, was arrested July 15, 2008 on charges of extortion. The magistrates of Pescara say that there is no evidence against him overwhelming, but subsequent investigations did not allow you to find one suspect in euro accounts in Italian or foreign. On the other hand, the objections raised in Del Turkish rely basically on the words of "regret" Vincenzo Angelini, who have documented the moment by moment, the whole procedure of "bestowal" of money without the record, however, 'the time of delivery and the identity of the benefit; and without that there is only one interception accusing Turkish. Then, two significant events: a report of the police which stated that Del Turkish would cut funds for 43ml to € clinics of his accuser as a result of fraud made by him, and finally, the same Angelini was arrested. And this makes it even more fragile against the prosecution's Turkish. Which was one of the "founders" of the Democratic Party, and now complains of being abandoned by what he regarded as his party and criticized the formula, so prevalent on the left, "let the courts work." It says: "When certain decisions weigh very heavily, it borders on complicity. In
Indeed, the "case of the Turkish" is so paradigmatic to lend itself to an interesting "exercise guaranteed." It graphically to highlight three of the handicap itself, ensure, so heavy as to constitute actual syndromes. 1): dell'Antipatico syndrome, or of the Turkish coach is not pleasant. But aside from the obvious considerations (as we are not very nice?), This should make it clear just of the guarantor. It is, worth double if strictly applied to those who do not particularly like it or not (from the President of the Council). In the case of Del Turkish, then, the "no sympathy" has an additional motivation of political reform has been a trade unionist and continues to be called socialist. Two badges are not particularly appreciated by many left (and not beloved by the writer), 2): The syndrome of the freezer, or of Turkish does not warm the hearts. The former governor has his own attitude, only marginal, anti-rhetoric and has set the entire defense in legal terms only, with meticulous attention, addresses all forms of intransigence protection and guarantees and totally focused on compliance procedural rules. A defense that the plot never cried and never emphasized its status as a "victim". This management "cold", not "throw in the politics," Del Turkish abducting even the most slender grounds of consent: and for a storiaccia bribes to shelters and can not be hearing a lot of emotional involvement, 3): The syndrome steer, or of the work leaves the Turkish judiciary. It is an invitation apparently wise but in fact dangerous. The criminal trial is still living a state of inequality between the parties, especially earlier in the trial. Therefore, that phrase ("let the courts work") expresses respect for the judiciary and shows sensitivity to the separation of powers, but could hypocrisy. It can be mistaken for indifference and subservience to a decision which, like all human choices, are fallible and therefore objectionable, and that, in cases like this can have very painful consequences. Thus, while fully respecting the responsibilities of each, the discussion on the individual acts of the judiciary must be allowed to develop freely, when it is expressed as an insult, attack, discredit. Indeed, the criticism can be useful in a modern rule of law, no institution should be considered not subject to public scrutiny and even less has become a totem in a sanctuary inaccessible or intangible.
If these warnings had been observed in the small "case of the Turkish" and other similar cases would have had a clearer financial guarantees and a more rigorous protection of suspects. That would benefit, first, the judiciary itself. And instead, the vast majority of the left and the Democratic Party has ignored all this: not to be worried lapped and compromised by a court of another member of his great prestige, the only left. Doing so has not only damaged Del Turkish: contributed to lower standards of protection of individual rights in criminal proceedings and to reduce the space of freedom for all.
