Illegal loans with usury rates in Castelbuono, final conviction

Article summary: The appeal was deemed inadmissible and the sentence (double conforming, meaning the same in first and second instance) became final: usury in Castelbuono, where two men allegedly granted loans with very high repayment rates; now for Santi Mazzola, 74 years old, the three-year and six-month sentence becomes res judicata. This decision was made by the second section of the Cassation Court, presided over by Sergio Beltrani, alongside Antonio Saraco. The appeal was all about the facts and the accusation, represented in the first instance by the Public Prosecutor’s Office of Termini Imerese, was difficult to challenge. It was already considered well-founded by both the Termini tribunal on June 6, 2020, and the Court of Appeal on June 15 last year.
