That unprecedented and visionary project, born 14 years ago in the offices and classrooms of the Juvenile Court of Reggio Calabria, has come a long way. “Free to “Choose”, the protocol born from the intuition of Roberto Di Bella – the Messina magistrate who “decided” that being part of a criminal clan can be a choice but must never be a destiny – has been state law since yesterday. The hall of Palazzo Madama has in fact approved with a unanimous vote the bill which intends to protect minors and young people under 25, children of mafia families, and those parents who want to distance themselves from the context of organized crime. A historic vote, which closes a process started by a bipartisan proposal approved in the Chamber last July 1st. And a state “seal” that follows those already conferred on Judge Di Bella’s protocol by the regional laws passed by the Calabria Region and the Sicilian Regional Assembly.
