he changed his version at the trial

Was Giovanni Nacarlo was indicted for perjuryowner of the Agostino chalet, during the hearing for the death of Francesco Pio Maimone, the 18-year-old killed by a gunshot in Mergellina on the night between 19 and 20 March 2023: the Court of Assizes considered his behavior during the examination to be omissive; the hearing was suspended and a court-appointed lawyer was summoned to assist the witness.

The murder of Francesco Pio Maimone in Mergellina

The aspiring pizza chef was killed, the investigations reconstructed, during a quarrel that broke out between two groups, one from the western suburbs and the other from the eastern suburbs of Naples; the second group included Francesco Pio Valda, on trial for murder: he would have started the argument, and then would have shot wildly, because one of the other boys had involuntarily stepped on his foot, dirtying his expensive shoes. At that time Maimone was sitting with a friend in one of the chalets, he was not part of either group and was not involved in the argument.
