So an old whore-monger that got the mafia to give him protection (see the Dell’Utri judgment), that has bought judges via an intermediary (Vittorio Metta) and who has just been confirmed guilty at a definitive level with the prohibition on holding public office, can continue to be a burden on the public accounts (taking a salary, having messengers, having the protection of the security forces, or for example paying only 1% of the turnover for the TV frequency concessions) even without ever going to the Senate.
