The chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee, Filippo Berselli (PDL), presented the bill S.623, "Amendments to Law 26 July 1975, No. 354, and the Code of Criminal Procedure, relating to permits and premium alternatives to detention."
If the text that will come down to us, the changes tend to reduce the possibility of alternative measures and reduction of sentences stating the laudable intention of ensuring the effectiveness and certainty of punishment.
But the bill hidden aspects to be highlighted:
among the measures proposed, there is a revision of the minimum age for home detention, to bring 70 to 75 years. In practice, the law called ex Cirielli desired by the center only in November 2005 has included in the rule of law Gozzini home for those over seventy but less than three years after their party colleague Berselli realizes that life is lengthened (the motivation invoked) and wants to raise the limit to 75. Meanwhile, note, of subsidy has exercised Cesare Previti. In short, more on a personal than that!
in the report of the PDL, Berson complains that textually "... The judges imposing prison sentences almost always the smallest and extenuating circumstances do not negate almost anything, given the further diminishing of summary proceedings or settlement (not to mention the perverse effects of the recent pardon )...". But it should be noted that the pardon him well liked and voted for Forza Italy and during the previous Berlusconi government has been introduced as a settlement expanded!
In short, the damage and insult, of course, always the sign of a strong justice to the weak and weak with the strong cloaked with demagogic purposes.
