Naples TikToker Rita De Crescenzo Causes Uproar as Son is Returned to Foster Home

One of the three sons of Rita De Crescenzo, a controversial and popular Neapolitan TikToker, was brought back to his foster home, causing an uproar among about fifty relatives, friends, and followers outside a local police station in Naples. De Crescenzo, known for her colorful and noisy performances, once again shouted and railed, all live on social media. She called the situation a 'scandal', a 'disgrace', supported by the people present, adding that her son, who is in the eighth grade and will now be returned to his foster home, was treated like a criminal. Francesco Emilio Borrelli, deputy of the Green-Left Alliance, who over the years has repeatedly censored De Crescenzo's behavior, also cried scandal: 'This is the worst part of Naples,' he says. It was Borrelli himself who reposted some of the TikToker's videos on his social profiles and reconstructed the story, explaining that the woman's son was stopped by the local police while driving a scooter on the Naples seafront, despite never having obtained a license. He was therefore fined, but subsequent checks revealed that there was a trace request for him, having fled from the foster home to which he had been entrusted 'because he did not attend school and was not well followed by his parents'. The boy was therefore taken to the offices of the local police of Santa Maria del Pianto, where shortly after 'about fifty people' arrived, led by the TikToker mother, who outside the police station began to shout and rail, posting videos of the protest. Borrelli commented, 'This is the worst part of our city, splashed out in full view on all social networks. Videos in which De Crescenzo shouts 'shame' against our men and women of the law enforcement who are just doing their duty or in which she tells lies about the case involving her son. Videos in which Rosario, another son of the TikToker, threatens to go and get his brother wherever they take him or in which he dedicates a 'flame' to me and to all the people who are dealing with this case. Videos that have even been sponsored for a fee to spread to as many people as possible lies, falsehoods, insults, threats, and accusations against institutions, law enforcement and the judiciary.' According to the deputy, 'the TikTok platform has completely lost its sense of proportion in allowing these videos to be sponsored, when they should only be removed'. 'These people do not represent us and will never represent us', he adds, recalling that 'De Crescenzo has already been involved in the past in very serious facts and links with a clan, another son was taken from her because he was used to deal drugs' and now 'she shows up with 50 people outside a police station, with the intention of obstructing and putting pressure on the work of the agents. A real aggression - he concludes - that the law enforcement had to endure and keep at bay.'
