...victims of extreme leftists who terrorized Italy during the 1970s and 1980s weren't outraged enough by Sarkozy's climb-down on Petrella, their fury was presumably further stoked at learning the back story of the move: Sarkozy's Italian-born wife, Carla Bruni, and her sister, Valeria Bruni-Tedeschi, had lobbied the President not to extradite the gravely ill Petrella to Rome - it even fell to the sisters to personally break the news of that reprieve to the former terrorist. "We could not let this woman die," Bruni told the daily Libération Monday in explaining her intervention...
...While that may be laudable in humanitarian terms, Bruni's defense of a convicted Red Brigade terrorist struck some as the summit of hypocrisy and indecency. As a child in the 1970s, Bruni fled Italy with her wealthy industrialist Bruni-Tedeschi family to take haven in France in fear they might be selected as targets by leftist terrorists during Italy's "years of lead." Roberto Della Rocca, who survived seven shots fired at him in 1980 by the Genovese faction of the Red Brigades, would not comment on the First Lady's role, saying that it is Sarkozy who must...

And prison isn't the ideal place for that". The following month, Bruni's older sister, actress Valeria Bruni Tedeschi, visited Petrella in prison and expressed deep concern for "someone who is seriously ill".

See also Tedeschi v. Reardon, 5 F.Supp.2d 40, 42 n. 3 (D.Mass.1998); Sheriff of Middlesex County v. International Bhd. of Correctional Officers, Local R1-193, 62 Mass.App.Ct. 830, 831-832 (2005). A deputy sheriff has authority to take actions that a private person would not have in similar circumstances. A deputy sheriff...
...most airplay of any current rock band." The audience responded ecstatically. The irreligious ones gave a lively performance; their head-banging antics and the booming speakers would have made Gang Starr proud. Less interesting was Donna Summer's belting out of a forgettable techno-laced, Cher-esque number. Susan Tedeschi (Winner, Outstanding Blues Act, Single of the Year on an Indie Label), Angry Salad, and the Push Stars (Winner, Debut Rock Band on a Major Label) gave solid performances that the audience did not entirely ignore. Less attention...
