Former Rome Officials Sentenced for Corruption

Two years and 2 months of imprisonment for Daniele Ozzimo, former housing councilor of the Capitol, and two years and four months for Massimo Caprari, former municipal councilor of Centro Democratico. The sentences were established by the gup Alessandra Boffi who, in the same abbreviated trial, acquitted Ozzimo from a second charge of corruption - in this case for enslavement of function - as requested by the prosecution. Ozzimo, judged with an abbreviated trial, was released on December 24th. The release request was submitted by the lawyer Luca Petrucci after the charge of corruption for enslavement of function had fallen against him. Upon re-hearing, during the trial in the courtroom, of an interception of Salvatore Buzzi, the 'ras' of the coops, contrary to a first transcription, states that Ozzimo 'n pija soldi' (does not take money). Caprari, on the other hand, ended up on trial as part of the Mafia Capitale investigation together with Daniele Ozzimo, Gerardo and Tommaso Addeo, former collaborators of Luca Odevaine, and Paolo Solvi, former collaborator of the former president of the X municipality Andrea Tassone. The two Addeo will have to serve a sentence of 1 year and 10 months, while Solvi has been sentenced to 2 years and 2 months of imprisonment. The charge for everyone is corruption.
