In video veritas. A curious story concluded in recent days in court in Sassari, which had as evidence a video filmed during a baptism.
It all started in 2022 when a non-EU citizen was stopped in the capital of Turritano and searched by the police. In his pocket he had 4 thousand euros in cash and 650 dollars, a sum that raised more than one suspicion. Especially because the Nigerian had a criminal record for drug dealing and it was believed that the money was the result of a drug sale.
This is how the proceedings are held before the preliminary hearing judge and the prosecutor Erica Angioni requests that the defendant be sent to trial. Who defends himself in this way: that money is the donations for my daughter's baptism. And the defense lawyer, Giuseppe Onorato, shows the star evidence, the video of the party dedicated to the little girl. Where the guests are seen offering sums of money as gifts and, even, one of them throwing some banknotes in the air as a supreme demonstration of generosity.
For this reason the lawyer claims that his client is innocent. And the preliminary hearing judge Sergio De Luca orders the dismissal.
