About Mauro Del Giudice
- Mauro Del Giudice (20 May 1857 in Rodi Garganico – 14 February 1951 in Rome) was an Italian magistrate, jurist and writer. During the period of Fascism he was a great supporter of the independence of magistrates.
- In 1924, together with judge Umberto Tancredi, he was charged with the investigation into the murder of Giacomo Matteotti.
- Convinced of the guilt of the regime, he showed great tenacity in resisting bribes and external pressures during the conduct of the trial.
- However, this intransigence cost him his job, probably by a direct involvement of Mussolini, through a promotion that forced him to leave his office in Rome for Catania.
- Later, he was forcibly retired, and moved to Vieste with his brother Luigi. In the Florestano Vancini's film The Assassination of Matteotti (1973), Del Giudice is played by Vittorio De Sica.
