Italy: End of the Marini Trial
On April 20th, 2004, the third and final degree of the Marini trial ended by confirming the sentences of the accused anarchists. Besides those already in prison, Angela Maria (Marina) Lo Vecchio, Alfredo Bonanno, Orlando Campo, and Carlo Tesseri have now been arrested and are in various jails across Italy.

The trial has gone on for years, and was part of an attempted frame-up by prosecutor Marini. The anarchists were accused of belonging to a fictional armed anarchist organization, but almost all were aquitted of "subversive association", and 13 were sentenced for "common crimes."

The sentences are as follows:
Angela Maria (Marina) Lo Vecchio - 15 years
Alfredo Bonanno - 6 years
Orlando Campo - 10 years
Carlo Tesseri - 3 years and 9 months

Alfredo Bonanno is imprisoned in Trieste. Angela Maria Lo Vecchio and Orlando Campo are in the Rebibbia prison in Rome. Carlo Tesseri is in the Dozza jail in Bologna.

Rose Ann Scrocco and Gregorian Garagin were both condemned to 30 years in prison, and Francesco Porcu was given a life sentence and 18 months of daily isolation. Fortunately, Rose is still a fugitive.
