[edit] Sacco-Vanzetti Revisited

Reading this article about a notorious murder makes me think of similarities to the Sacco-Vanzetti case in the USA in the 1920's when Sicilian immigrants (also anarchists or syndicalists) were scapegoated for a crime (which they probably did not commit) and executed. In the Italian case, it appears that the Italian magistrates were not swayed by public opinion to the extent that the framed Albanian immigrants were similarly dispatched. This is a truly interesting case and deserves further expansion. PeterHuntington 19:46, 27 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Name change

I changed the name of this article from "Novi Ligure Homicide" to "Novi Ligure Murder." It's called the "omicidio de Novi Ligure" in Italian, but "omicidio" translates to English as "murder" rather than "homicide" -- it's a false cognate. The English sources for this article call it the "Novi Ligure Murder." -Fagles 20:18, 13 April 2007 (UTC)
