Salvatore Giuliano, an Italian bandit and criminal, was assassinated on July 5, 1950, in Castelvetrano, on the western tip of Sicily, Italy. He became an outlaw in World War II, attacking only the wealthy with more money. Because of Sicily's bloody mafia tradition, the local peasants became Giuliano's co-conspirators.
Salvaturi Giulianu was a Sicilian bandit who went dark in World War II after the Allied invasion of Sicily from July 10, 1943. in September 1943, about 70% of Sicily's food supply came from the black market. When he smuggled food into the black market, he shot and killed a police officer who tried to arrest him. Giuliano became an outlaw and led a band of outlaws for most of his life. He became a flamboyant and high-profile criminal, attacking the police at least as often as he was called upon to make arrests. In addition, he became a mastermind of local power in Sicilian politics from 1945 to 1948, including a role in the nominal propaganda of Sicily's separatist movement. He and his bandits were legally responsible for such events as the Portella d'Essi Sinestre massacre. Responsibility for the crimes for the large number of deaths that occurred remained questionable.
Extensive international coverage left him perplexed by the Italian government. He became the first person to be reported in real time by the modern mass media. Up to about 2,000 police and soldiers were deployed throughout his banditry. He was betrayed by his own people and assassinated on July 5, 1950. This was the last of Robin Hood, the hero of the bandits. He was said to have robbed the rich and given to the poor. Bandits are a criminal group that attacks and loots by violence. However, bandits never loot their relatives in the blood region within their territory, and they strictly punish their relatives according to the blood code. When the kinship society was converted to a modern society, banditry disappeared from local communities. However, when poverty caused by the Great Depression and other factors led to the spread of needy people and the collapse of local communities, violent bandit groups would inevitably arise again. The threat of war leads to the emergence of war-attacking groups for self-defense.
