"Portobello": Italy's historic miscarriage of justice revisited in audio account
Original: AUDIO "Portobello": account of a historic miscarriage of justice in Italy
A new audio account revisits the Portobello affair, one of Italy's most notorious miscarriages of justice. Television host Enzo Tortora, famous for the show Portobello, was convicted of drug trafficking and association with the Camorra in the 1980s before being fully acquitted on appeal in 1987 after years in prison. The case remains a symbol of media-driven injustice in Italy, and the retelling is drawing renewed attention to how public opinion and courts failed him.
Why now: Interest in historic judicial errors has been revived by this new audio account of the Tortora case
