How far can the sense of the macabre be pushed? There seems to be no limit, at least according to the story that arrived this morning before the judge of the Court of Oristano Paola Bussu. A young man from Bolotana, Mirco Campus, is on trial for contempt for having taken some selfies next to the body of an elderly man and having placed a bottle of beer inside the coffin. In another case the young man was immortalized next to the body of an elderly woman with a cigarette in his mouth.

The young man worked on behalf of a company to which the Municipality had entrusted the task of exhuming the bodies of past years in 2018 due to the need to recover space in the cemetery. Those photos circulated in the town until they reached the then councilor for cemetery services who, without wasting time, reported everything to the police. Having started the investigation, the military then denounced Campus, who ended up on trial for contempt.

This morning the trial opened and, answering the questions of the prosecutor Daniela Muntoni, the then councilor Stefano Nieddu and the Carabinieri marshal who started the investigations were heard. The trial was then adjourned until November 3.
