Parco Verde di Caivano, linking Paola Gaglione with Fortuna Loffredo

The Green Park of Caivano as Scampia, two parallel destinations. Two urban planning experiments that were born to improve housing situations of emergency and decay but that end up turning into the opposite, that is, a fortress from the underworld and horrifying news. The Green Park, where María Paola Gaglione and her brother lived, the same neighborhood that is the backdrop for the death of two children, Antonio Giglio and Fortuna Loffredo, victims of sexual abuse by adults, the child even thrown from the Balcony of one of the buildings that make up the neighborhood.

In Caivano the buildings of the Green Park were built immediately after the earthquake in Irpinia in November 1980: they served to host thousands of families from villages in the interior of Campania devastated by the earthquake, but they became a permanent agglomeration. The district now has about 6,000 inhabitants locked in tight, maintenance-free spaces, one of the largest squares in the Neapolitan shop, like Scampia. Also here, as in the Vele neighborhood, now destined for demolition, the Camorra dictates the law, which supervises the territory and the businesses derived from it through a network of sentinels (often minors who thus make their debut in illegality). but also thanks to a more advanced system made up of cameras, architectural barriers, railings, periodically dismantled by the police but which return to their place on time. In 2019 the Court of Accounts opened an investigation into all the mayors and municipal officials of Caivano who for years have tolerated unpaid rents for decades, occupied flats without title, tax damages for millions of euros.

Two news events are also linked to the name of the green park of Caivano recent rises to national fame that have targeted young children in the context of sexual crimes. The best known is about the horrible ending of Fortuna Loffredo: she was just 6 years old when she died on June 24, 2014 after being thrown from the eighth floor of a building. According to investigators, the little girl wanted to escape an attempted violence by her mother’s partner, Raimondo Caputo, who was sentenced to life imprisonment for these events. Even Caputo’s former partner, Marianna Fabozzi, was sentenced to 8 years. Marianna Fabozzi is also the mother of another child, Antonio Giglio, 4, who died under mysterious circumstances in 2013 but with a dynamic identical to the Fortuna Loffredo tragedy: he fell from the seventh floor of an apartment in Green Park. For the woman, the Naples investigating judge requested the forced accusation of murder.

Direct witness to the degradation of Green Park Don Maurizio Patriciello, parish priest of the church of San Paolo, in the heart of the neighborhood. Don Patriciello known for his fight against the devastation of the so-called land of fires but always at the forefront and alongside the families of Parque Verde. Even yesterday he was one of the few who came into contact with the family of Maria Paola Gaglione. Here at Green Park things will get worse and worse. On the other hand, the state decided at the table that this should remain a ghetto. What happens is only the direct consequence. There are no institutions here. Decent people leave and their houses are occupied by criminals. It’s useless, there is no future here, said the priest after the meeting.
