Ansa Live at 3 pm (ANSA)

Not having to proceed because the fact does not exist: the lieutenant star of the famous’ ballet ‘staged last summer in the non-commissioned officers’ school of Taranto by young volunteers who had just taken the oath was acquitted with a broad formula by the military gup of Naples . The video showing the recruits had made it to the web and in a few days it had gone viral. Against the woman and a non-commissioned officer, who had assisted her, her accusation was that of “complicity in continuous pluriaggravata disobedience”. The prosecutor today asked for the indictment, while the defense lawyers of the accused, the lawyers Giorgio Carta and Floriana De Donno the acquittal.

Ballet sailors viral on the web, the lieutenant faces a serious penalty

“I remain of the idea – says the lawyer Carta to ANSA – that the young officer should have been rewarded by the Navy. Instead she was subjected to disciplinary and criminal proceedings. The latter closed today already in the preliminary hearing, subject to appeal The disciplinary one, on the other hand, had been suspended pending the criminal trial. I trust that the Navy wants to archive and definitively close this unnecessarily traumatizing affair for a young mother commander and enthusiastic about her work “.

Satisfaction is also expressed by the defender of the non-commissioned officer: “Distracting himself from the media hype of the ‘ballet’, the judge has been cutting, the crime does not exist. No order, no disobedience”, said the lawyer. De Donno. The story, which dates back to the summer of 2020, is well known. In the video that you have depopulated on the web you can see the recruits framed in platoons in the forecourt of the barracks. Then the commander enters the scene – in her white uniform, saber and blue scarf – and, to the notes of Jerusalema, the hugely popular Tik Tok era hit – she begins to dance. The lieutenant sets the pace and everyone soon follows her.

The final effect is funny, but the uproar aroused by the footage is immediate and the Navy didn’t like it. A few days later, disciplinary proceedings are initiated against the officer for having violated the “image” of the Armed Force with his behavior. The military prosecutor of Naples, territorially competent, then opened a criminal case for ‘Disobedience’: According to the accusation, he did not obey the orders of the department commander, relating to service and discipline. But today the acquittal has arrived.
