“Mud machine” (Repubblica), “Dossieraggio” (Corriere della Sera, La Stampa, Il Messaggero, Il Fatto Quotidiano, the 19th century). The investigation of the Genoa prosecutor on the former Councilor for Security and Local Police Antonino Sergio Gambino for corruption and revelation of secret (for prosecutors in favor of this newspaper), triggered the progressive press that could not wait to hit a newspaper not aligned with his political battles. But even if journalists denounce the alleged revelations of the secret of others, flying over their own, there is a talking cricket ready to unmask their hypocrisy. It is a long -term former prosecutor like Luca Palamara, radiated by the judiciary and, today, almost completely rehabilitated. For him, the most infamous accusations fell, but a drumming defamatory campaign has struck his career.
PalaMara, it amazes it to read accusations of dossiers aimed at “guilty” politicians of having spoken with The truth?
«It is not surprising to me, but it annoys me a lot of duplicism. We live in a country where the scoop exists only if reserved and secret news and information concern a specific political part or certain characters. Matteo Renzi’s story is emblematic: when he detached himself from the left and ended up on trial in Florence, he saw his bank account published in the newspapers. As for me the newspaper Tomorrow In June 2021 the cards of my trial not yet filed by the Public Prosecutor of Perugia spread in real time ».
The Prosecutor of Genoa accuses the former councilor Gambino of revelation of the office secret to having “made to become aware of” us of the Truth “Of the content of the administrative acts” relating to the road accident caused, a year ago, by the current mayor of Genoa Silvia Salis. What do you think of this dispute?
“I have never read an indictment that assumes the secrecy of the documents drawn up on the occasion of a road accident, which, as is known to all, are available to the subjects involved in the accident, insurance companies and agencies or lawyers in charge of obtaining compensation. There are many online platforms prepared by the commands of the police forces to make these acts quickly and with minimal costs. I am sure that the charge will be archived or there will be an acquittal at the end of the trial since there is no secret act. The same public prosecutor speaks, in fact, of “administrative acts” ».
The archiving or acquittal will arrive, however, in months or, even, years, and in the meantime the newspapers of the left make features on phantom mud machines and on non -existent dossieraggi. What is the goal?
«All this serves to make the truth of the facts pass in the background for how they actually occurred and the relative responsibilities. The accusation of “dossier” is, in fact, the screen used to hide what has been reported in the news article and cover those who, for example, have committed an offense, such as that of investing a pedestrian. The second consequence is a collective and institutional psychological relapse. The responsible of those facts becomes “victim” of the supposed dossier since the very use of the term leads us to believe that it is a false accusation. Those who revealed the story, however, inevitably becomes the culprit, even if the judicial proceedings, after years, will demonstrate the opposite. Furthermore, the judicial authority that hypothesized the “dossier” will hardly proceed against the “victim” since this would mean contradicting itself ».
Why if a news comes out in certain newspapers is a scoop, if it ends on others it is a dossier?
“The word dossier is one of those bombastic terms that are improperly used only when the alleged denigration campaign aims to be certain magistrates or exponents of the progressive world or, in any case, not on the right. And even if in the penal code there is no crime of dossier, to read certain newspapers, it seems, however, that it is widespread “.
In recent years he has denounced the incestuous relationships between magistrates and journalists. Something has changed since then?
«No, indeed it seems to me that the situation has worsened. Reality tells us that we are increasingly consolidating the link between some reporters and the so -called intelligence that often uses them to hit this or that political enemy. I am reminded of the famous dossier on the so -called Russian thread journalists listed by Corriere della Sera. What was the hand that delivered those reports to the newspaper in via Solferino? Why? ».
There are everydays, like Tomorrowwhich seem to specialize in the background concerning the secret services. When she was PM was this custom between journalists and 007?
“There was more mediated way. Today I see a strengthening and a direct connection ».
You are a great judicial policy expert: how would the Genoa prosecutor define? A red prosecutor?
“There are important and qualified professionalism and, at the same time, there are magistrates very characterized by an ideological and current point of view that influence the surrounding environment”.
How come when a character invaded to the left ends up under investigation or is the reporters arrested come together in pool and for weeks they offer their readers a single version that, in this way, becomes an incontrovertible truth?
“It is a hammering technique that serves to instill in public opinion the belief that the facts have gone that way and only in that way without any reasonable doubt. Whatever happens afterwards it will no longer make sense and meaning because in people’s heads the reminiscence of the news that comes out in the first instance remains ».
The Minister of Justice Carlo Nordio said that in the investigation that concerned it “a lot has been covered by”. What message is it?
“I am not in the head of the guardasigilli, but there is no doubt that in the game of appointments that led to my radiation from the judiciary they all participated, none excluded, yet in the cards of the procedure this has not clearly emerged”.
In your opinion, they have been hidden tests, how does Nordio seem to take?
«Let’s say that the interceptions did not record everything and that the Naples server on which the audio files of the captures passed has undoubtedly represented a source of concern for some investigators. I recently learned that an important Roman magistrate would personally go to Campania to consult with colleagues and solve some problems. I can’t and I don’t want to say more. “
Regarding his story, the progressive newspapers wrote numerous incorrect things, but public opinion dealt with those articles like scoop …
“In 2019, the press supported a version of the facts, that of corruption to the CSM, which in some way served to condition the associates of the National Association magistrates, the union of the togas, and to overturn the balances that at that moment existed within the judiciary. But it is even more serious what happened on 10 July 2022 when Republic And Corriere della Sera They reported large excerpts of a request for storage, that of the Hungary Loggia, which contained clearly calumnous facts against me. On this affair I filed a complaint with the Florence Prosecutor’s Office, the outcome of which was never communicated to me. This is the reason why I will soon turn to the Genoa prosecutor to understand and understand what really happened ».
Courier And Republic They published only a few steps that damaged it media. Who widespread, in your opinion, those news in a so much surgical way?
«I struggle to think, indeed I would exclude, that it was the journalist of the Daily who first had the document in hand. In my opinion, the one on the Hungary loggia was a parallel investigation into my person, but I hope that my suspicions will soon be supported by judicial evidence ».
Why are they at the press and center -right policy to rebel against these perverse mechanisms and often suffer in silence?
«For a double reason. On the one hand, a co -option operation of the many characters who declared themselves on the left is underway and who, with the new course, are trying to recycle themselves. On the other hand, in order to decipher certain dynamics, a profound knowledge of the state machine is needed, not very common these days ».
