Depistaggio Borsellino, Pg: "Apporto decisivo 007"

(Adnkronos) - (dall’inviata Elvira Terranova) – Parla di “apporto decisivo dei Servizi segreti” nel depistaggio sulla strage di via D’Amelio, ma anche del ruolo che il Sisde “ha svolto in tutti questi anni”. Arrivando a definire “il personale” dei “Servizi segreti” “il vero convitato di pietra di questo processo”. Il sostituto procuratore generale di Caltanissetta Gaetano Bono non usa giri di parole nel suo intervento alla prima udienza del processo sul depistaggio sulle indagini sulla strage costata la vita, il 19 luglio del 1992, al giudice Paolo Borsellino e cinque agenti della scorta. Depistaggio Borsellino e i servizi segreti Alla sbarra, ancora una volta, i tre poliziotti, Mario Bo, Michele Ribaudo e Fabrizio Mattei. Tutti accusati di concorso in calunnia aggravata dall’avere favorito Cosa nostra. Nella sentenza di primo grado, emessa il 12 luglio del 2022, era caduta l’aggravante mafiosa per due dei tre poliziotti imputati del processo. Per Bo e Mattei scattò quindi la prescrizione, mentre Michele Ribaudo era stato assolto. Sono tutti presenti, i poliziotti, seduti uno accanto all’altro sulla panca accanto all’ingresso dell’aula angusta, troppo piccola per contenere tutti i legali e i rappresentanti dell’accusa. “Quindi, anche gli odierni imputati, hanno agito sotto la gestione La Barbera”, l’ex Questore di Palermo nel frattempo deceduto ndr, che guidava il ‘Gruppo Falcone e Borsellino’. Per il giovane pg “non si può escludere il ruolo che il Sisde ha avuto negli anni”. E aggiunge: “Dopo 31 anni ci sono ancora zone d’ombra sulla strage di via D’Amelio e questo processo cercherà di dipanare alcune di queste zone d’ombra”. In prima fila, sul banco dell’accusa c’è anche il neo Procuratore generale di Caltanissetta Fabio D’Anna, insieme con il sostituto pg Antonino Patti e il pm Maurizio Bonaccorso, applicato dalla Procura per questo processo, che ha presentato l’accusa in primo grado, dopo l’addio di Stefano Luciani e Gabriele Paci, andati rispettivamente a Roma e Trapani. In aula anche due delle parti civili del processo di primo grado, Gaetano Murana e Giuseppe La Mattina, ingiustamente condannati all’ergastolo, dopo le accuse false dell’ex pentito Vincenzo Scarantino. Assenti, invece, i figli del giudice Borsellino, Lucia, Manfredi e Fiammetta. All’inizio dell’udienza la difesa del poliziotto Mario Bo ha depositato presso la Corte nuovi documenti con la richiesta di rinnovamento dell’istruttoria dibattimentale. Il pm Bonaccorso ha chiesto la deposizione del gip Montalto “Si tratta, in particolare, di motivi aggiunti depositati il ​​21 settembre, con nota del Ministero dell’Interno, quale prova sopravvenuta e un secondo deposito, avvenuto il 13 ottobre 2023, per l’acquisizione di due note della Dia di Caltanissetta”, spiega il Presidente della Corte d’appello Giovambattista Tona. Nel corso dell’udienza, il pm Bonaccorso ha chiesto alla Corte la deposizione del Presidente dei gip del Tribunale di Palermo Alfredo Montalto. Dovrebbe essere ascoltato in quanto l’8 settembre del 1992 aveva interrogato Salvatore Candura, dopo l’arresto. Candura è l’ex pentito che si autoaccusò del furto della 126 utilizzata come autobomba per la strage di via d’Amelio. Accuse e arresti Dopo essere stato arrestato il 5 settembre del ’92 per violenza sessuale -accusa dalla quale venne poi assolto- assieme a Roberto e a Luciano Valenti, zio e nipote, mentre era in cella con quest’ultimo, si autoaccusò del furto dell’utilitaria. Alla moglie però avrebbe detto di essere innocente, ”di non aver commesso alcuna violenza sessuale che era solo una scusa e che non sapeva niente della macchina”. In un secondo momento confidò alla donna anche di essere stato costretto ad autoaccusarsi di quel furto. Bonaccorso ha chiesto anche l’audizione dell’avvocato Giuseppe Gerbino, allora difensore di Candura e dell’ex questore Vincenzo Ricciardi. Nel corso dell’udienza ha preso la parola anche l’avvocato Fabio Trizzino, legale della famiglia Borsellino, nonché marito di Lucia Borsellino, figlia maggiore del giudice. “Questo è un processo che ha un rischio grossissimo di prescrizione. La famiglia Borsellino, che io rappresento, e noi chiediamo che questo processo abbia un percorso il più possibile veloce, perché non accetteremmo il rischio di una prescrizione. Ecco perché chiediamo alla Corte d’Appello di dare al processo una corsia preferenziale assoluta”. Immediata la replica dell’avvocato Giuseppe Panepinto, legale di Mario Bo: “Gli unici danneggiati dal processo allo stato sono gli imputati, che senza la prescrizione, avrebbero avuto una assoluzione completa”, ha detto. Depositata una relazione di un sopralluogo eseguito nel 1994 da Scarantino Il pm Maurizio Bonaccorso ha depositato, sempre oggi, una relazione di un sopralluogo effettuata nel mese di giugno del ’94 da Vincenzo Scarantino al quale avrebbe preso parte un agente di polizia, sempre della Squadra mobile, indagato dalla procura di Caltanissetta per false dichiarazioni al tribunale dopo il processo di primo grado. La relazione è stata trovata durante il trasloco degli uffici della Mobile di Palermo per dei lavori di ristrutturazione. Al termine di una camera di consiglio, il Presidente Giovambattista Tona ha accolto un termine di difesa richiesto dai legali fissando un rinvio al prossimo 28 novembre. La Corte ha sospeso i termini di prescrizione per una settimana, dal 21 al 28 novembre, perché un difensore è imputato in altro procedimento. Il Presidente della Corte d’Appello Giovambattista Tona ha, infine, reso noto il calendario delle successive udienze. Che si terranno il 5 dicembre, il 12 dicembre e il 19 dicembre. ---cronacawebinfo@adnkronos.com (Web Info) Read the full article

Colored sketch commission for AJ-The-Fox, featuring his character AJ, and Darkflame-wolf's character, Murana! :) This is a birthday gift for the latter, so happy b'day to them!

[fantroll-purgatory]

Hello mods, I hope you’re all doing wonderful! I’ve been a long time fan of this blog, and I’ve just made a troll based off of Ursula from the Little Mermaid films. I hope I’m doing this right!!

I LOVE URSULA WITH MY WHOLE BIG FAT GAY HEART THANK YOU FOR THIS GIFT 

Your name is MURANA VANTIA and you ARE A TEENAGE WITCH.

FIRST: Alternia or Beforus or some type of AU? Alternia

Name (preferably include how you came up with it and why): Murana Vantia. Murana comes from Muraenidae, the family of Moray eels. Vantia is from Vanitas, Latin for vanity, emptiness, and worthlessness.

Man the reasoning for all this is so tight. Given that Ursula has not once, but TWICE gone undercover, you may want to also give her a go-to alias besides her FLARP name. Perhaps based on Divine and just as shamelessly transparent? Maybe EIVIND?

Age: 6 sweeps (about 14 years)

Strife Specibus: tomekind? I’m kind of stumped, maybe she just whacks people around with her tomes, and her ancestor’s journal.

I think 2x3tridentkind works fine here since she does get ahold of it from time to time. A large part of her quest could actually be the pursuit of the weapon just to fill her specibus. As a backup…hmmm. We’ve seen Void players with fistkind before, representing an absence of weaponry. Given Murana’s theme, how about screechkind? Can easily be “upgraded” using others’ voices and accessories such as megaphones, but stands well on its own.

Fetch Modus: Cauldron Modus. Murana can easily captchalogue items, it seperates them into their basic components and places them in bottles on a'shelf’. Murana has to pour the right bottles into a cauldron, making a potion. It can take a bit of time to find all the required ingredients, and is a bit of guesswork most of the time.

I love it! It’s basically a more complex version of Jane’s recipe modus. It would also be interesting to see how the cauldron modus might break up the component parts of, for example, a voice.

Blood color: Violet #7C0072 (in reference to Vanessa’s eye colour in the movies, and also because sea witch & not ruler of the sea)

Also her skin is literally purple! I love it!

Symbol and meaning: A Trident, Ursula pursues Triton’s trident in the film, and is ultimately killed by it

Trolltag: charmedGibbet

Quirk: 3- Doesn’t change much, speaks properly and clearly. Calls trolls ‘sweetcakes’ and other nicknames like that. Ends all her sentences with 3-. Her laugh is like AHAHAHAHA!

Special Abilities (if any): None, except for her highblood strength

I mean I think the nature of Murana’s character is such that she inherently *does* have abilities that exceed that of a normal seadweller. You could even convincingly argue that that’s why she’s exiled; a wary empress would have to get Gl’bgolyb to kill off a significant amount of the population before her screech reached the psychic anomaly, so it would be more expedient to get her out of the way via exile than to kill her off.

Lusus: Two headed moray eel. Murana and her lusus get along brilliantly. The two heads are meant to represent both flotsam and jetsam, Ursula’s lackeys, and her two-faced nature. Murana cares for her lusus, and witnessing her death sends her into a rage unlike any other.

Hive: Murana lives within the bones of a dead creature known as a leviathan. Her room is built into a massive bone. The only point of entry is a large hole in the floor.

I know that this is pulled from canon but given her lusus lemme spin this for you: Murana is living in her lusus’s massive corpse after its death. This gives her both a creepy lair AND a visual symbol for her unwillingness to move on from the trauma of her lusus’s demise.

Personality: Murana is a cunning and merciless woman, she fears nothing! Her lusus taught her all the essentials of survival, and how to get a good deal. Anything she wants she can get. Murana has a burning desire to be heiress, she thinks it was her rightful place to usurp the empress. She sees herself as merciful, generous to poor lowbloods.

Sounds great! A good touchstone is Pat Carrol’s own perception of Ursula, which is “part Shakespearean actress, with all the flair, flamboyance and theatricality, and part used-car salesman with a touch of con artist.”

Interests: Dark magic, FLARPing(as her witchy character Arsulu), Troll Sabrina the Teenage Witch (she owns a box set, she’s not messing around), Tending to her potted coral. Murana posesses a crystal ball and cauldron. She also possesses a book from her ancestor, which she reads religiously, and a necklace which she refuses to wear. She also likes to do her makeup, she has to look very good for her guests.

Hmmm. Why does Murana refuse to wear the necklace?

Title: Thief of Hope

…I mean I can DEFINITELY see how it works but after hint upon hint upon hint you’re not gonna make her a Witch? Witch of Hope still fits very, very well with what she does.

I think you could go a step further and maybe have her be a thief of hope PRETENDING to be a witch of hope? Using her magic to disguise herself after realizing her true nature. -CD

Land: The Land of Castles and Changes, LOCAC. Murana’s quest is simple, she must become the Queen of the yellow ladder snake consorts by defeating Aite, the denizen, and restore hope.

Hmmm. SBURB generally likes to challenge and even antagonize its players rather than feed their existing personality. This is almost too heroic a quest for Murana, I feel. Até also means the hubristic action taken by the hero that ultimately leads to their death. This is a troll who believes herself to be great, and one that SBURB would likely want to bring down a peg! Consider: Land of Uprisings and Downfalls (LOUAD), which is meant to lead Murana to believe that her quest is to overthrow Aite, uncomprehending of the fact that the planet requires her own downfall for the denizen to restore hope. Despite being an active class, this is a quest that would demand an inward change to advance the narrative.

Dream Planet: Derse

Ancestor: The Faustian Overseer. (FUCK I love this name!) A beautiful witch to help those poor unfortunate souls. Her primary target was those on land, as their blood was so low they surely had little luck. Notably, she could make it possible to walk if you couldn’t, see if you were blind. But she always expected pay, and not in the way one expected. The Overseer left behind three objects. Her crystal ball, her journal, and her necklace.

Dancestor: Morcan Vantia Based off of Ursula’s sister Morgana. She was never quite good with magic…

thank you to whoever reviews this!! <3 i hope you have a wonderful rest of the day

I am already having a wonderful freaking day for seeing this submission. Boy howdy! Let’s go to the fucking redesign!!!!

Horns – aside from the note that she doesn’t wear her necklace, there really weren’t a lot of nods to what’s considered Ursula’s most iconic accessory, so I resprited her horns to resemble the nautilus shape. With that said, I do like her original horns since there’s a fan theory that the ordinary, curved horns we see on robots and movie posted are the societal ideal.

Hair – it’s not that you have to have the same hair as a character after which they’re themed but with this character??? With that iconíque widow’s peak??? It’s just got so much personality.

Face – I mostly kept it the same but I made her lipstick a little duller to match the rustblood range, which is presumably the class with which she professes solidarity to lure them into Faustian bargains.

Body – I noticed that you stuck a couple of fan-troll’s outfits together to create a sweetheart neckline, so I went one step further and used fan-troll’s more chesty lingerie template to really emphasize her curves. I feel like this is a character where her weight is exceptionally important, so I also tried to give her a bit of a belly.

Skirt – I always feel like this particular fan-troll template looks a little awkward because you can’t see how the skirt falls. This is edited from dixieko’s fancy Prospit/Derse dress, though I edited it so much that it maybe doesn’t even resemble the original product anymore? Whatever. Credit where credit is due.

Shoes – I could easily make up (pun intended) a reason for the lipstick color that was canon compliant, but not so much for the blue shoes. Since you put such an emphasis on her being fancy, I decided to just go with heels in her blood color. It also contributes to her imposing figure.

So that’s about it! All in all, I really feel like you did your research and made a troll that did justice to my favorite, favorite, FAVORITE villain.

Links to a few bead and bead jewelry information sites...

There is something fascinating about beads, about imagining the stories they may tell. The oldest known bead dates from around 100,000 BCE. Beads are a part of our human cultural heritage — as adornment, social class indicators, a form of currancy, or an aid to meditation or prayer.

Among the beads I'm most drawn to are those that were made to be used in the mid-century costume jewelry industry. I'm not nostalgic for the late-1950s and early/mid-1960s, but they were the days of my childhood. Perhaps something of what implied glamour in the eyes of my mother and her contemporaries imprinted on me. Trying to find the history of mid-century glass beads is an ongoing project. Who were these craftsmen/women who created the charming, sometimes elegant, sometimes quirky beads in a post-war world? I've read that Cherry Brand beads were the piecework of individual Japanese rice farmers who created lampwork beads in the evenings when their field work was done...
