Luca Traini, a rightwing militant who
shot and woundred six African migrants in a drive-by 'revenge'
shooting in Macerata in 2018, has been released from jail,
sources said on Tuesday.
The 35-year-old said he went on the drive-by rampage in
'revenge' for the rape, murder and dismemberment days before of
18-year-old Roman woman Pamela Mastropietro outside Macerata in
Marche by a Nigerian drug pusher.
Traini's targets had nothing to do with Mastropietro's murder.
He was given a 12-year jail term.
A court has allowed him to do what remains of his sentence by
doing community work on the grounds that Traini has understood
the gravity of what he did and the pain caused.
He has found a job and wants to compensate his victims, sources
said.
The lawyer representing Mastropietro's family, Marco Valerio
Verni, said on their behalf that if a court had granted Traini's
request for parole "all the requirements were met".
"Everything, even the worst of crimes, must be settled in a
court of law, never by following other paths that would open the
way to a do-it-yourself justice that does not belong, nor should
belong, to the rule of law," Verni added.
