Mattarella pardoned Minetti, he should look to his conscience says Roggero

Mario Roggero, a 72-year-old

Piedmontese jeweler sentenced to 14 years and nine months in

jail for killing two fleeing robbers outside his shop near Cuneo

in 2021, on Friday said he deserved a presidential pardon saying

President Sergio Mattarella should "look to his conscience"

after he pardoned former Berlusconi bunga bunga pimp Nicole

Minetti and a migrant trafficker who had killed 30 people.

Speaking before entering Bollate Pirson near Milan, Roggero

implied he deserved a pardon more than Minetti, who was pardoned

for pimping and embezzlement in February so she could look after

a sick Uruguayan adopted boy, and the unnamed trafficker.

"President Mattarella pardoned a trafficker who killed 30

people, he pardoned Minetti, I think he should look to his

conscience," said the jeweler, who right-wing parties say acted

in legitimate self-defence and deserves to be pardoned.
