Chi si ferma è perduto! Sosta del santo sotto casa del boss e turbatio sacrorum: un caso inedito di tutela giudiziaria del sentimento religioso

This paper provides a critical analysis of a recent ruling in which the Supreme Court considered the stopping of a religious procession under the house of a well-known Mob boss to be criminally punishable for the crime of disturbance of a religious function. The Author then draws inspiration from this to make a more general reflection on the issue of criminal protection of sentiments.
