Massimo Ciancimino, but he did as a young man?

Marco Ottaviani

"Massimo Ciancimino that the legacy of his father has unreservedly accepted, guarding (abroad) the archive and enjoying a huge amount of money so the suspect and advise him to keep it hidden, can not (even in our devastated country) claim that this is considered alien to the father's sins. One of two things: either agree to be assessed in accordance with its heritage and this (although belatedly) waste in its entirety giving us the whole truth without tricks or winks and especially to return the stolen goods "
Michele Costa (son of the prosecutor Gaetano Costa , killed by the Mafia)
"The undeniable progress that characterizes very clearly accusatory statements on behalf of the accused can not irreparably affect in a very negative for the reliability and credibility of Massimo Ciancimino. The court strongly doubt the credibility and reliability of a person as Massimo Ciancimino so far proved on the basis of documents examined by the Court and with reference to reports on behalf of the 'accused, author of wavering statements that did not hesitate to correct or reverse in time with great ease "
Court of Appeal of Palermo (the conviction of Marcello Dell'Utri)

" Massimo Ciancimino? I get the impression that he is cultivating a thought of Provenzano "
sen. Luigi Li Gotti, (IDV, a former lawyer Buscetta, December 4, 2010)
"I understand the inconvenience any citizen than the ease with which Massimo Ciancimino use his statements, but what looks like a war between the courts of Palermo and Caltanissetta may actually be a sign of the limit of justice itself. Justice is in the position of having to consider the words of those elements but does not provide evidence, and behind these elements has a job to protect their interests "
Raffaele Cantone (aka magistrate anticamorra)
" When I hear on television, Fuck you "
Massimo Ciancimino (intercepted while it is negotiating the purchase of allowances dirty, November 2010) A model son


Massimo Ciancimino is the son of the famous mob boss Vito. Yes, we can call it that, after all, a boss, one that mattered, which receive and distribute power, money, control of territory. The large cement of Palermo and the Conca d'Oro, the speculator par excellence, who led the "Sack of Palermo" from Palace of the Eagles, that is gone, belatedly, in prison, the damage done in 1984 and the Supreme Court finally convicted for Mafia association: it was a mobster, to all intents and purposes. A criminal, then, that was both the Mafia and the state, being both a member of the Cosa Nostra, is a senior member of the DC (the ruling party for 60 years) and mayor of Palermo. Anything but negotiation: Vito Ciancimino was summary of the Mafia and the state.
Massimo Ciancimino, is that he tells it, he was beside her father while he did business with the most ferocious godparents. While managing the public affairs and what the mafia. He was present, was always there. In other words, went to lunch and dinner with Provenzano and all of the Corleone clan. He was with them and talked with them, growing with them. It was one of them.
For the strange laws of the Italian people, while the children are shown to have plagued Riina (the son was in prison, his daughter lives in semiclausura, all their belongings were confiscated, as indeed those of relatives of Provenzano) , our maximum, even after the arrest and sentencing of his father, continued to enjoy the immense revenues of the criminal underworld of Don Vito, it was bought princely houses in Italy and abroad (which has free today, and at which houses at will), luxury cars, and everything that makes show. But like a good
caruso, had also found a job at the time. And that did work, Massimo Ciancimino, son of the powerful political and powerful mafia? Strange to say: no one seems to know. The little man
gas.
Nobody in broadcast television which is kindly invited as a guest, or from the newspapers that have printed very broad spaces and virtual spaces through almost countless interviews and blogs, in short, no one has ever asked Massimo Ciancimino what his occupation. He says, well, is now working is a writer of books that exude truth. Ok, but before? What the hell did before?
No one knows, but it is public, I told him in an interview at the 2006 RAI News 24. He, sir, was the man of the gas. The one with the key counter, which opens and closes the pipe, which makes us pay the bill, that, although it is never mentioned in the files of Wikileaks, which speak only of Berlusconi and Putin, holding the fate of the European pipelines.
To summarize in a few lines: Junior was the mediator between the Russian energy giant Gazprom and gas distribution companies in Europe. ENI including, of course. The son
the Mafia don Vito, the son of the boss finally arrested and convicted, the heir to the immense real estate and securities accumulated over many decades of ill repute, it has been for a long time, brought to that role by who knows who and who knows how and for some reason, the link between all of our energy needs and the Siberian gas producers.
When his father was still alive (we are in the early months of 2002) had "always had a ball of methane, together with a friend, Professor Lapis (attorney Don Vito), you shall contact Gazprom. Gianni Lapis has a small distribution network methane in Sicily (land elsewhere where the activities are very often public property strictly private), then the member is right. The hook this up with Russia and Kazakhstan is the first through common acquaintances with former Soviet republics rich people on vacation at the Hotel Cristallo in Cortina (where Ciancimino goes well deserved vacation), then by Ottavio Angotti, now disappeared, but who was the vice president of the Bank of America, responsible for the University of the Caucasus, and, incidentally, a companion of the daughter of former President of Communist China, Deng Xiao Ping.
In short, the contacts are there and the deal begins to run well. Lapis, Ciancimino, Angotti, more Tronci Romano, another entrepreneur with a thousand contacts, manage to sneak in the Moscow salons and ENI in the machine, and then again in metanifere those of Ukrainian society, and in those of half of Europe. Ciancimino is part of millions of cubic meters of natural gas, without spending a single penny, as it has in that interview, but betting and making money on the difference in price of gas bought and sold in Kazakhstan and Siberia, through the national companies, we Europeans, who were paying the difference in the bill. A bargain
all based on triangulation bank in Switzerland, France, Hong Kong, and all built on the future performance resulted from different rates of departure and arrival times, and therefore did not require any substantial capital: "the gas is paid with the money of customers . Do not pay with their own. Because it takes too many. "
Votes gained far-fetched, at that time, Ciancimino and associates. For a single supply of natural gas to British Gas, to supply 1 billion cubic meters, have grossed in 2004, over 10 billion dollars.
How and why European companies rely on someone like him as the sole conduit for contacts with Gazprom Putin, it would be nice to know. But we'll never know if nobody asks him.
All was well for Massimino, until one day he and his partner, friend and business consultant, Dr.. Lapis, would not "make the wonderful" by investing a very big sum of money in a charity. And what was this institution? Incredibly, the Centre Paolo Borsellino, wanted by the family of Judge killed in via D'Amelio and "managed", but, practically, by a priest, Giuseppe Bucaro, which seems to occupy the entire administration. Lapis
Ciancimino and then send money, lots of money, the Center Borsellino, for the purchase of benches for kindergartens and things like that, he says, and together with the priest manages, in fact, the Center.
Too much money, too many moves, too many steps, too many accounts. Pm at the request of the DDA, Roberta Buzzolani, Lia Sava and Michele Prestipino, coordinated by Deputy Prosecutors Giuseppe Pignatone and Sergio Lari, Ciancimino, his attorney and Gianni Lapis Ghiron are investigated and indicted.
Meanwhile, because of all this, the Centre Borsellino is dissolved, in liquidation dismantled.
opens the process for money laundering against Junior. Process in which the measure pariziale jumps out, but not the exact amount of its capital offense: in fact the goods are seized for 50 million euro. It is a process that, talking about the legacy of Vito Ciancimino could rebuild a good part of the political-economic history of admixture between Cosa Nostra, the business community and business in Sicily, and DC.
But this is not a case that is designed to attract the media circus, not a show trial, the DC no longer interested in any of the great newspapers and great reporters, in fact, we tend to forget it, or to restore her virginity a historical unlikely but not entirely unattainable. The debate is sober, almost a whisper, and focuses not only the origin but that Massimo makes use of that money-laundering. The process ends with an indictment, and sentenced to five years and eight months imprisonment. With him, also condemned the mother, Lapis, and Ghion.
Since then, we are in March 2007, Max begins a race against time to achieve a single objective: to save himself from jail.
wait a few months, then starts to leak rumors, says he wants to talk about important facts, made it known that pricked the conscience.
Ciancimino word "collaborate" he says, says at least be able to do so. Is heard. The move has happened, because in the appeals process are recognized extenuating circumstances in virtue of his cooperation, and the penalty is reduced to three years and four months. It's the end of 2009. More or less since then, Ciancimino is a river in flood: there is no fact or circumstance criminal, political or investigative happened in the last thirty years in which he did not have anything to say, to reveal, to be discovered. Prosecutors, indicates, hints, suggests to know, send signals, data and sipping names, carefully designed with patience.
And so begins his unusual and highly original new life as a "protected witness" (a figure court which seems to have been designed especially for him. Perhaps it has a history, but we can not remember which), the co-defendant (employee coimputato! not!) In various trials of suspected mobsters, and guest star media-political apparatus represented by Year Zero, the daily and a number of initiatives election (elettorali!!) and celebrations of party IDV, PD, even in the SEL.
In this role, absolutely free, despite the criminal convictions, from driving the country and even abroad, and, being accused, not having an obligation to tell the truth (the rewrite: being accused, when he talks about the processes, has no obligation to tell the truth, it can lie with impunity), began to churn, serials, in a crescendo of plot twists, copies (not originals: mere photocopies) of [alleged] documents bomb, and to reveal, in fits and starts and how and when it seems to him, [the alleged ] glaring truth, finding wide application of his utterances, as if they were absolute and unquestionable truth. Not being a collaborator with justice, not neanchel'obbligo to say everything they know in 180 days, as state law, and may, as mentioned, of his property if it were a real contrast to the recognized employee, a so-called "sorry", those were all the goods seized.
not waste the chance to whine that they are life-threatening, to be targeted as "revealing". Travel with the escort, at our expense, and sails from a television studio and a presentation of his book. Although it has combined what they have done in the Centre Borsellino, enjoy the amazing friendship Salvatore Borsellino, friendship raises some scandal in effect.
The stories he tells, yet totally without evidence, of "Mr. Frank" and "monster face" of politicians old and new are interwoven, in the words of Junior, with the story of the "negotiation", but a story full of inconsistencies, contradictions, absurdities of space-time. This is not the place to talk about in detail. But next time we will.
include a photocopy and another, between a piece of recovered memory and the other, Massimo Ciancimino starts to be considered much more reliable, at least some prosecutors. Latest in chronological order, that of Caltanissetta, and Florence. The first has also investigated for slander against De Gennaro. The second rejected a request to hear the new trial on the massacres of '93 for the following reasons: "Ciancimino from the statements made in court, appear as dilated and Spaziante on a very broad view of criminal, general, hearsay evidence and declined in largely relating to different facts or state do not appear riconottersi with those judges. "
short, to believe in Our little man is only Ingroia gas, and the prosecutor in Palermo, despite strong affirmation of the Court of Appeal of that city in the judgment Dell'Utri, and brought back to head to this article. But perhaps this can be explained, there will be explained with a clever strategy investigation. Remains unexplained but the total trust of certain organs of the press and opionion makers against a searing character whose past seems not to count, while the far more neutral than others, perhaps intended as political opponents, however, makes them hold up as "mold and worms "to public ridicule.
Recently, speaking last October, the same PM had to Palermo, after its word of their witness, who recounted close acquaintances and continue with Riina and Provenzano, proceed against him, and I have looked for "open competition", the mildest of offenses related to organized crime.
And even more recently, Massimo Ciancimino was taken out of the stock, as has been shown to be able to comfortably do without, when he plans to go and attend to business unclear.
This redrawing a figure as a bit 'different from those who wanted and still want to let us go to the Saviour of the Fatherland.
