The multiple murderer Giuseppe Mastini is at large in Italy. The 60-year-old man used a free passage on Saturday to escape from his maximum security prison in Sardinia, as the ES Polizia police union announced on Monday.

It is not the first time that Mastini manages to escape. He had escaped from prison at least twice before.

Mastini, Born in 1960 in the carnival car of an illiterate Sinti family, he made a name for himself in the Roman underworld as a child: “Johnny the Gypsy,” as he was soon called, was extremely brutal and utterly unscrupulous. He struck and fired for the most trivial cause. And he became a person in contemporary Italian history.

Mastini committed his first murder at the age of 15. For a couple of lire and a watch he killed a tram driver. Mastini was captured, taken to juvenile prison, escaped with some friends, and moved on.

Thefts, car thefts and extortion alternated with prison sentences and escapes. She even escaped from the prison island of Pianosa, which is considered leak-proof and surrounded by miles of water.

Interest in Mastini grew even more when he found a girlfriend in the mid-1980s. Zaira Pochetti, 20-year-old Roman student. She became a gangster girlfriend. Both were quickly considered the Italian version of Bonnie and Clyde.

In the late 1980s, Mastini committed more robberies, killing one police officer, wounding another and taking a girl hostage.

In June 2017, Mastini also escaped after being released from a prison in northern Italy. At the time, that had caused violent outbursts of fear in certain circles. Because Mastini, it was said, still had many old accounts opened with former cronies.
