They did not hate anyone and did not raise their voices. They didn't attack the executioner JuliaNor did they take it out, as often happens with those in heaven or on earth. They surprised many, opening their hearts and reasoning in the midst of the storm. But the Cecchettin family did not only receive testimonies of affection and solidarity in return. But serious insults and threats. For this reason, the family of Giulia Cecchettin filed the first two complaints with the Mestre postal police about online insults against the student killed by her ex-boyfriend Filippo Turetta and for the threats received. Gino Cecchettin's lawyer, Stefano Tigani, filed a defamation complaint with the postal police on behalf of the girl's father. Gino Cecchettin, for the messages sent to Giulia over the Internet containing dozens of hateful phrases. A second defamation complaint was instead filed by Elena, Giulia's sister, against regional councilor and former Zaia list councilor Stefano Valdegamberi, who had written in a post that Giulia's sister “is playing an ideological game and to what extent it seems so.” “ is part of a satanic cult and the images of violence that appear on his profile are eloquent.”
Gino Cecchettin from Fazio, Che Tempo Che Fa against the haters: “You suck”
Criticism, insinuations, but above all insults and hate threats, including the death of the father, that have never stopped: there are hundreds of unspeakable punishments that the family has received. For this reason, Gino Cecchettin will file a new complaint with the postal police in the next few days. “Any defamatory and derogatory act against Cecchettin and his family will be promptly prosecuted,” warns the lawyer. For Tigani, “it is frightening to witness similar acts in a tragedy of this magnitude and in view of the pain that this family is experiencing, and therefore it is up to Mr. Cecchettin to take every initiative to do so.” Harsh attacks from the keyboard lions, those in the frightening and cruel shadow offered by the wide spectrum of the Internet, from social media to comments on media articles, that targeted poor Giulia and her family members.
Elena Cecchettin, who attacked the “patriarchy” and tried, together with her father, to expand the discussion to the too many victims of femicide so that there would be no more Julians to mourn, was confronted with insults and threats. Because of the look, the photos on social media, because of the Thrasher sweatshirt, one of the most famous skate magazines in the world based in San Francisco is accused of Satanism. Even Gino Cecchettin's participation in Fabio Fazio's show “Che Tempo Che Fa” triggered the “haters” so much that the editors of the show's websites were forced to remove and close the comments. “I'm not sure if you or him are more disgusting,” one follower wrote. The response from the show's social media manager was ready: “You.”
Calm and constructive as always, Gino Cecchettin, armed with a surprising gentleness, sent a dry, immediate message to men in the television interview: “Say I love you, I don't love you, to your wife.” But you have to do it now say, at this moment. And then: “In deep pain I tried to understand the causes that led me to live this terrible adventure in which I made a mistake.”
THE GOAL
Now he wants to support his daughter Elena's fight: “Give help to those who still have the opportunity to save themselves.” I find myself fighting a battle that I wasn't aware of before, I read about femicide, it I'm sorry, I'm moving on. But after experiencing another drama a year ago (the death of his wife), I have changed as a man. Monica introduced me to the essence of love, I am no longer the same. Since then, I have developed a different relationship with my children and told them I love you. As for the future: “We all have to do something,” Elena said clearly, she is a superior being in the family, as I jokingly call her. She got to the point when I heard her talking about patriarchy, I just knew the word, it threw me off. I will support them in their struggles, the idea is to set up a foundation, the problem is very serious and needs to be addressed in the most drastic way. Patriarchy means that there is a concept of obsession, expressions like “my wife” seem harmless, but no.” Start standing out from everyday life, Cecchettin urges, and pay attention to the expressions we use every day. We are parents, we educate, we give messages, we talk, we try to recognize their weaknesses.” His daughter will graduate in February, he announced. He then confessed: “A father feels certain things, I started crying on Sunday, Giulia.” Now she wants “to be like Giulia, so I got rid of hatred and anger.” Even today I want to love, I don't want to hate , it drains my energy. We will do everything we can to dance in the rain in his honor.
