“The Executive Board of the ANM Lazio expresses its deep concern for the attack of which its colleague was the victim Chiara Trapuzzanojudge of the Court of Latina, at the end of a criminal hearing in the early afternoon of March 26″. This is what we read in a note. Trapuzzano, 34 years old, has been in force at the Latina court since September 2021
“As soon as she left the chamber, she read a sentence concerning a defendant present who first ironically applauded – continues the ANM – and then approached her dangerously and threatened her with death, adding that he would reach her. in her home and that he shot her in the head.”
For the magistrates’ association “this is yet another episode that highlights the alarming and more current issue than ever of the individual safety of the individual magistrate and the collective safety within the judicial offices. In fact, about a month has passed since the attack suffered by the colleague of the Civil Court of Rome and perhaps it is not even entirely coincidental that similar acts are always carried out to the detriment of young women, as manifestations of a social reality distorted compared to the judicial reality, which views the female component of the judiciary with annoyance”.
These behaviors “are based on the constant process of devaluation of the judicial function which is certainly not helped by the recent announcement to subject individual aspiring magistrates to a psychological evaluation.
All our solidarity goes to my colleague Trapuzzano, with the hope that the issue of safety in courthouses, which must be ensured for all users of the service, becomes a central issue that can no longer be avoided”, concludes the note.
