Vendetta: The Mafia, Judge Falcone, and the Quest for Justice

Vendetta: The Mafia, Judge Falcone, and the Quest for Justice

John Follain
4/5 ( ratings)
Vendetta tells the story of the Mafia murders that stunned Italy and how the killers were brought to justice.

On 23 May 1992, the Mafia murdered its 'Number One Enemy', prosecutor Judge Falcone, with a motorway bomb that also killed his wife and three bodyguards. Fifty-seven days later, the Mafia also murdered Falcone's friend and colleague, Judge Borsellino, with a car bomb outside his mother's home that also killed five bodyguards. These murders changed forever the way that Italy views the Mafia.

Based on interviews and the testimony of investigators, Mafia super grasses, survivors, relatives and friends, Vendetta recounts how the Mafiosi planned and carried out the murders and the police hunted them down.
