“	My excitement is based on this devious and humiliating mechanism: possession. The knowledge that she is prey, at your total mercy, weak and submissive, a slave to your will. Total possession. Yes, it is true, in a rape the sexual satisfaction is small, it is the rest that dominates. The full control of her body, the sense of omnipotence, the sadistic outburst of an unsteady instinct, the psychological torture, her suffering, her anguish, her submissiveness. Everything enters a perverse game aimed at the annulment of her will. The woman who is dominated, bondage, submission, the pursuit of your only pleasure.	„

Biography

Early life

Izzo was born on the 23th August 1955 and he is the first of four children. From the earliest years he led a comfortable life: his family lived in Trieste-Salario, a district of the middle-upper Roman bourgeoisie bordering the Parioli, and he was enrolled in the San Leone Magno institute. During his school years he prefers to devote himself to sports (horse riding, sailing and water skiing) rather than studying, demonstrating an early propensity for contact sports, martial arts and rugby. Soon, his passion for politics began to arise in him and at the age of thirteen he joined the Young Italy, a student association of the then Italian Social Movement, an neo-fascist party. At the end of 1969 he was expelled from the group together with Andrea Ghira, accused of using the internal courtyard of the Trieste-Salario missina section to hide stolen mopeds.

He was also enrolled in the Faculty of Medicine and Surgery, but he didn't always go to school and he preferred to go to bars and participate in parties organized in the homes of other young right-wing extremists in which political ideology, drugs and violence against women were mixed. Furthermore, he already had raped two women receiving a he was sentenced of two and a half years.

The massacre of the Circeo

On the 29th September 1975, Izzo, Guido and Ghira met at 4:00 p.m. with Donatella Colasanti and Rosaria Lopez, two girls who had met a few days earlier through a mutual friend. The two were invited to Circeo, in the villa of Ghira, in the locality of "Punta Rossa".

Once they reached their destination, they were raped, drugged, tortured and massacred for a total of thirty-five hours. Lopez was eventually taken to the bathroom on the first floor of the villa, where she was beaten and drowned in the bathtub, while Colasanti was nearly strangled with a belt and savagely beaten. The two girls were then hidden in the trunk of the car of Guido's father and then went to have dinner. The lamentations of Colasanti, a survivor of the violence, attracted the attention of a night watchman who gave the alarm: Izzo and Guido were arrested within a few hours while Ghira went into hiding.

On the 29th July 1976, all three were sentenced to life imprisonment in the first degree. The sentence was also confirmed in the subsequent degrees of trial for Izzo and Ghira, while Guido was granted the general extenuating circumstances on appeal, thus reducing the sentence to thirty years.

Attempted evasions

After being detetend, Izzo tried several times to escape. In January 1977, he tried to escape from Latina prison together with Guido, taking the warrant officer of the prison guards hostage, but the attempt was unsuccessful. In January 1986, he was credited with an attempt to escape from the Paliano super prison. On the 25th August 1993, he left the prison in Alexandria and managed to expatriate to France. He was then captured in Paris in mid-September and extradited to Italy.

Semirelease and the massacre of Ferrazzano

In December 2004, he obtained semi-release from the Campobasso prison, at the behest of the Palermo judges, to go to work in the "Città futura" cooperative.

On the 28th April 2005, Izzo killed Maria Carmela and Valentina Maiorano, at the time under protection in Ferrazzano and respectively wife and daughter of Giovanni Maiorano, former affiliate of the Sacra Corona Unita, whom Izzo met in prison . The crime was revealed on the 30th April by Guido Palladino and Luca Palaia, initially arrested for illicit arms trafficking. The granting of semi-release was the cause of a controversy between the Surveillance Courts of Campobasso and Palermo, which accused each other of the paternity of this decision. Then, Izzo was sentenced to life imprisonment again, with a sentence confirmed in the two successive stages of trial.

Other trials realating to the massacre of Ferrazano were made. The first trial was based on a libel complaint filed by Giovanni Maiorano, with whom Izzo claimed that he had had sexual relations. Izzo was sentenced in the first instance to pay 2,300 euros, but on the 29th September 2011 he was acquitted "because the fact does not constitute a crime". The second trial concerned alleged false attestations, relating to the employment relationship that allowed Izzo to leave prison on a semi-release basis: the first degree trial ended with a sentence of one year and six months of imprisonment, but was acquitted on appeal, together with the then director of the cooperative Dario Saccomani.

Marriage with Donatella Papi

In November 2009, the journalist Donatella Papi declared that she wanted to marry Izzo and to fight for the reopening of the two trials that led him to life imprisonment. The two married on the 10th March 2010 in the Velletri prison. The relationship seemed to have ended after about a year: the journalist said that Izzo had confided to her that he was responsible "for other very serious facts for our Republic", adding that "I stop here, because I don't want to be an accomplice to things that I don't agree with". However, on the occasion of the acquittal in the libel trial of the two Ferrazzano victims, Papi declared that the crisis between the two had subsided.
