Confessione di un commissario di polizia al procuratore della repubblica (Confessions of a Police Ca Page #5

---

so it's not like I would have had him released!

Imagine:
I'd forgotten he even existed.

You can be sure that after me,

he was going to go for you:

the name on the court document

that committed him, six years ago.

You encouraged me.

Have you forgotten that?

That's all over with anyway.

There's no point dragging the past back up again.

Well, all right, we'll forget It

What's on your mind?

What did you want to meet me for?

You have to go to Cleveland, to see

your relatives. I will pay.

Why?

Because there are people

who are out to get me,

and they may come after you,

thinking they can use you to get to me.

But what help would I be to them?

There are many ways for them

to get what they want.

Let's just say it's safer if you go.

And when you return,

I'll see that you get a new apartment,

on Via Le Strasburg, or by the sea;

whatever you want.

A promise, dear Ferdinando, that I

can add to the collection.

Oh, don't be like that.

We need to find a way to understand

each other again, Serena.

We need to rekindle that thin we used

to have for each other.

If you're willing to give It a try,

we'll go to our old restaurant, in Mondello,

and we'll talk the whole thing over.

I swear, you have nothing to worry about.

Sony I had to make you walk,

but I couldn't park any closer.

- Ferdinando, you want to klll me, don'! you?

- Will you cut it out? Come on.

Yes.. it's true! You want to kill me!

Come here. What's the matter?

Callisto, Callisto, hold it!

You want us to go over to her place?

No, she knows better than to go there.

We must find her, no matter what.

The Chairman of the Anti-Mafia Commission

has stated...

that the lengthy Investigations Into

the connections between

the mafia and the political world

will shortly be concluded.

The report will be sent to Parliament

as soon as possible.

An Important member of the

Commission commented:

"We will not be taking any

action before the report is issued

This is better than a comedy.

They're saying the same things

as they were when we met.

"The people expect us to be

as thorough as possible. "

Oh, erm... this Is Michele Cammino.

Miss Lina Paladino.

- I'm very pleased to meet you.

- Likewise.

- Excuse me.

- Sure.

Nothing to smile about, Cammino.

So...

The life, death and miracles of

District Attorney Mr. Traini!

He must be a mummy's boy;

he calls his mother in Switzerland constantly.

She's in a hospital, but we don't know why.

A kid called and asked him for an appointment.

- A boy?

- You think he could be a f*ggot?

You're talking about an Important person -

the least you can do is call him a homosexual!

- Are you going?

- Well, it's getting late.

Well, until tomorrow

- Bye.

Let's get back to your weak allegations...

A say. eh?

No, I doubt it. Go on.

He called Judge Malta,

to tell him he'd met Lomunno.

Lomunno accused his competitors of

having had LiPuma released.

And did he say anything about me?

Bonavia is a neurotic...

"He pursues Lomunno out of envy,

but Lomunno doesn't consider him dangerous.

Malta authorized Traini to Investigate

Bonavia's private life.

He urged him however, to be very discrete,

because Bonavia is a public official,

and thus a representative of the state. "

What else?

Malta authorized Traini to tap your phone.

Unfortunately, their surveillance center Is

even more effective than ours.

Well, we had the idea first:

they don't know that they must watch what

they say on the phone. We do.

Was there anything else?

Schiro called Traini.

Schiro?

Why?

He asked Traini to meet him where

the shooting took place.

- Good old Schiro!

- He is a piece of sh*t!

What's Schiro got against me anyway?

He's never forgiven you for your report,

which stopped him getting promoted.

What report?

When he roughed up that student,

during the riot at the university.

- Oh... I'd completely forgotten about that.

- I'll make that bastard talk.

You don't do anything, understand?

"Please note:
on March 7th, 1962, the sum of

"Bonavia withdrew the money

the following day. "

- Thank you.

- You're welcome, sir.

Follow me, please.

An ideal place for a crime, isn't it?

Well, if you say so.

Have you heard of Gianpaolo Rlzzo,

the trade union activist?

No.

Well, he wasn't my brother, nor a relative -

he wasn't even my friend.

He was more than that to me.

He was a young man that I admired.

When I left the village to join

the police force,

he remained here to help

the vulnerable people.

Do you know what It means to be a

union activist around here?

There is a law that guarantees you

a regular, set wage. All of you!

Lomunno Is cheating you all.

This can't continue. Why are you afraid?

The sheep are afraid, but that does not

save them from the wolves.

The more fear you have, the more likely It ls

that you'll be eaten by the wolf.

$0 why do you hide In your houses,

behind the windows?

I know you all, even if you hide.

And I know that you're all with me.

Lomunno robs the workers,

and gets rich from our sweat.

He who gives us bread ls

our father, we say.

But he throws us crumbs!

And what kind of a father ls It

who brings us hunger,

and uses his power to fire us,

whenever he wants to?

He can't do this according to the law.

What law is this then?

If he says we must work for 14 hours a day,

then we must work for 14 hours.

If he says children will get 1000 lire a week,

then they get exactly 1000 lire.

He says "I'm firing you",

and that is that.

You feed his power with your fear.

If we don't demand our rights,

who's going to give them to us? Him?

Here he ls:

Don Ferdinando Lomunno,

here to try to make me shut up.

He thinks he will chase me away.

Listen well to what I say: we will make

him be the one that shakes in his boots.

Don't work on his construction sites

Friends, go out on strike now!

No one must go back to work until

he comes to terms with us.

The contracts must comply with the law.

Who are you trying to convert?

You're trying to fill these decent

people's heads with your stupid ideas.

You talk like a criminal!

And I'm not finished yet!

If one spits Into the air,

the spit will fall back into one's face.

You exploit the poor people,

who have nothing to eat.

You're the real criminals here!

Stick a finger In his belly

and see what comes out - sh*t!

What are you waiting for'?

Arrest the shooter!

The first to leave the square would lose face.

Rizzo knew that.

So he stayed there, lying on the ground

in the square for hours,

even at the risk of bleeding to death.

That episode made Rlzzo a hero,

but being a hero isn't always an asset.

If we hold together, we'll make 'em run,

like scared rabbits.

Ah, here's an old friend who has

dropped by to congratulate me.

But he is also a policeman, and since my call for

a strike was not legally authorized,

he's come to arrest me.

Isn't that right, Giacomo?

I have to take you to Palermo.

The judge will let you off with a warning.
