However, the Carabinieri clarified that the incident occurred approximately nine years ago. This highlights the potential pitfalls of sharing unverified information on social media, especially by public figures.

A summit between the Italian secret services and a boss of the Neapolitan Camorra, Raffaele Stolder, was allegedly held in a seaside restaurant in Salerno, as narrated by the informant Maurizio Ferraiuolo, Stolder's nephew. The meeting, which supposedly took place in 2007, was described as an attempt by the state representatives to have Stolder control illicit activities in central Naples without causing deaths or injuries. Ferraiuolo, considered reliable by investigators, claimed that Stolder refused any pact or collaboration, stating he was no longer a Camorra boss and wished to return to thievery as in his youth.

Questions arise about the credibility of Maurizio Avola, a former Cosa Nostra hitman and informant, who self-implicated in the Via D'Amelio massacre that killed Judge Borsellino. His credibility is challenged by the Dda of Caltanissetta, and further doubts are raised by Vincenzo Cavallaro, a significant Calabrian informant, who testifies that Avola approached him in prison to retract accusations against Luigi Giuseppe Cirillo. The Salerno prosecutor's office opened an investigation in 2015 into Avola's alleged attempt to suborn Cavallaro. Meanwhile, journalist Michele Santoro's book, which relies on Avola's account, faces scrutiny as it contradicts the established narrative by key informant Gaspare Spatuzza, who is considered reliable and has helped correct miscarriages of justice in the past.
