PALERMO – “To conclude the controversy over the events of the ceremony in San Domenico for which I am very saddened, I think that the silver wedding of Boss Lo Presti with his wife celebrated in front of my brother’s tomb was an offense against both my brother Giovanni and the entire city of Palermo”.
Thus Maria Falcone, sister of the magistrate killed by the mafia, in a note released by the Falcone Foundation. “San Domenico – underlines Giovanni Falcone’s sister – is twice sacred, for the church and for the community because the most illustrious people of Palermo rest here and are an example for everyone. Mafiosi are murderers and ruthless criminals and if the bosses try with arrogance and bad taste to gain credibility in the eyes of the community, we will clearly respond with culture and commitment”.
“The religious of San Domenico – concludes Maria Falcone – they didn’t realize the mistake they were about to make. However, I always believe in the good faith of the Dominicans, who are very cultured and attentive to the value of memory. This very ugly page will close on May 23rd with a very crowded, beautiful and heartfelt religious function in San Domenico to remember the victims of the Capaci massacre and ideally all the victims of the mafia”.
