The mafia massacred Graziella Campagna at just 17 years old, without any mercy, with five gunshot wounds just because she was an “inconvenient witness”. It was December 12, 1985. Cruelty destroyed his body, but his memory will remain indelible in everyone’s hearts. Earthly injustice will not extinguish the memory of his pure and special soul.
