The two, uncensored, would first have joined the usury activity of her husband and father, a drug offender, ill, then replacing him, once he died in 2021, taking over the reins of the ‘loans’.
“The measure stems from the investigations launched in May 2021 by the Corsico company following the receipt of a lawsuit filed by a building contractor who, due to the serious state of economic difficulty, in the two months of September / October 2020 had obtained from the deceased husband and father of two suspects (to whom he had also turned in 2017 for a loan of 35 thousand euros, subsequently extinguished) a further donation of 22 thousand euros at usurious conditions, at a monthly interest rate of 10%.
