He is known for his closeness to the anti-vax community, active and explicit on social media; instead she has a clean profile: they are the two people who, according to Digos, directed by Dante Cosentino, defaced the façade of the Prefecture exactly three months ago. A long and careful investigation which led to the search of the two’s homes, within which various useful elements were found to consolidate and continue the investigative work. The man is 47 years old, she is 36, they both live in the city: they would be included, together with other people, in the Guerrieri ViVi group. The charges against them are criminal conspiracy, damage and littering. This is a group born in the midst of the Covid emergency and rooted in various cities, including Pescara. It is characterized by open anti-vax and no green pass positions, together with proselytizing activities against electronic payment and digital identity systems. Alongside propaganda, the action developed through the damage and defacement of schools, party headquarters, trade unions, newspaper editorial offices, offices and hospitals with the symbol of the double V inscribed in a circle. All of this was claimed via social media.

THE CHAIN
The last two events, in Pescara, are those in January: the first with writings inside the hospital. The second, the following day, aimed at the Government Palace: the steps, the door, as well as the central facade, smeared with large writings and symbols, traced with red paint, “signed” ViVi. A disaster, also from a historical point of view (it is a listed building) on which Digos, with the coordination of Public Prosecutor Anna Benigni, immediately began working. The first responses came from video surveillance systems which recorded part of the incursion, but also the movements of cars and people. The investigations thus quickly focused on the couple, also through work on the edge of technology: social profiles, contacts and activity were examined. In addition to a series of checks on movements through the analysis of telephone users and connected cells. And it was thus possible to define the operating methods: in the hospital the man would have acted alone, the following day, however, the woman would have accompanied him by car in the most impactful operation on the facade of the Prefecture, on which large stains of red paint. The geolocation carried out through the telephones placed both the man and the woman in the area of the Prefecture at the time of the blitz. The woman then turns out to be the owner of a car identical to the one seen by cameras in the area. A home-made lance was used to deface the matter and, during the search, was found in the man’s home. As well as two empty cans of red paint and stencils with the ViVi Warriors logo, which were also used extensively to paint symbols and slogans of the movement in the activist’s area of residence, at the stadium. Instructions for building the sprayer can be found on the no vax reference channels. During the searches, Digos agents recovered other useful material. Smartphones, computers and tablets were also seized, on which further investigations will be carried out, also to look for traces of other people involved in the movement’s enterprises, starting with the attack on the CGIL headquarters in via Benedetto Croce.
