Rionero, settembre 1943. Una strage, nessun colpevole
by Giovanni Marino, Pasquale Libutti
Description
On September 26, 1943, Canadian troops liberate Rionero in Vulture, in
Basilicata, Italy, while the Nazi-Fascist troops retreat further north. The
first soldiers who enter the town discover a massacre of innocent civilians,
which took place two days earlier. It is the first time that the Allies
are able to document a war crime in Europe: the reports and images
of the massacre will be published in countless newspapers in Canada,
England and the United States. The trial on Rionero’s bloodshed in
1943 will be held in 1951, without identifying any culprit. This research
reconstructs the events of Rionero, where in two separate episodes 18
people were killed and others lost their lives due to war, or in any case
remained obscure. Other documentation concerns events that took
place in nearby Atella, where two civilians and a German soldier die in
unclear circumstances.
