“Not recognizing stalking is a lack of respect for the victim’s family. And it is yet another confirmation that the institutions don’t care about women.” Elena Cecchettin, Giulia’s sister, returns to talk on social media.

She is a tiny woman, but she alone explains an entire neighborhood to you. There is a woman in La Latina who, once a week, goes out to scrub the piece of sidewalk in front of her doorway. Theirs is a virtually infinite task, since scrubbing the street is the urban version of putting up doors to the countryside. Once you start on the first cobblestone it is difficult to find the last one. Where do you stop? When you reach the zebra crossing? When the sidewalk ends at the first vacant lot? On the sign that tells you that…

The Mossos d’Esquadra have declared themselves unable to find out who spied on the pro-independence leaders with the Pegasus program.
