The 17-year-old who shot the 24-year-old musician Giovanbattista Cutolo, killed last August 31st in Naples, has been sentenced to 20 years in prison. This decision was made by the judge of the juvenile court in Naples, accepting the request made by the prosecutor. This is the maximum sentence considering the abbreviated trial. Cutolo's mother expressed satisfaction: "Justice is done, all of Italy wanted this verdict." Tension arose outside the courthouse, where some relatives of the convicted 17-year-old shouted at the friends and family of the slain young man.
