Italian Police Open a Mobster's Vatican-Owned Tomb in Search of a Missing Girl

Searching for the remains of a teenager missing for three decades, Italian police opened the Vatican-owned tomb of mobster Enrico De Pedis, but the boxes of bones they found interred with his corpse only deepen the mystery, Barbie Latza Nadeau reports.

Well since no one is responding I will put more of the news article in to try to generate a little
interest about this strange scenario.


The smell of death wafted through the 7th-century courtyard of Vatican-owned Sant’Apollinare church in central Rome on Monday as bricklayers pried open the tomb of notorious mobster Enrico “Renatino” De Pedis. Police scientists and criminal investigators at the scene quickly identified De Pedis first by sight and then by taking a fingerprint from his remarkably well-preserved hand. His dark blue suit and black tie were as pristine as the day he was buried.


Mobsters and the Vatican ? What?

But when investigators opened the mobster’s tomb on Monday, it was not to look for answers as to why such a man was interred in a church owned by the Vatican. Instead they were searching for the remains of 15-year-old Emanuela Orlandi, who has been missing for three decades and who has been rumored to have been buried in DePedis’s tomb.


How does a teen girl fit in with the Italian mob and the Church ?

Did De Pedis’s have something on the Vatican or someone who was a high ranking priest?

e Pedis died of gunshot wounds in 1990 and his body was interred in the Vatican-owned church sometime before 1997, when an investigative journalist discovered the tomb’s existence among those of important prelates. De Pedis’s was the only crypt with the last name written in diamonds. Why such a notorious mobster with an undisputed affiliation with the Banda della Magliana criminal gang was buried in the company of bishops, cardinals, and popes in a Vatican church has been a question that has dogged the Holy See for the last 15 years.


Diamonds Really?

I don't know but the police scientists thought it was unusual for him to by that well preserved.

By the way there were "dozens of boxes of human remains" discovered in his tomb
"and the bones found in the De Pedis crypt may be hundreds of years old."

Interesting. Far-fetched, but interesting. I don't see how cloning people is a means to eternal life however. A clone is a clone. Now transferring the consciousness of one into a clone body--well, that's where it all turns into SF...

Hi LJB,


Thanks for the comments. Yes, you're right, science fiction is fiction until science catches up with fiction. When it is established that certain groups retain knowledge and technology from others for their exclusive use, then we will see a technological gap. To some this is called "Competitive Advantage". What this means is that groups are in competition with one another. For this reason, for many centuries and even thousands of years groups have kept knowledge SECRET.


It has been called "Hermetic Knowledge" because it is kept hermetically sealed from the minds of others. Information is encrypted, encoded, transmitted through special initiation, it relies upon blood oaths associated with death threats for any who might leak information. Its modern corollary is through the "Secret" Service and Intelligence Agencies. They also have blood oaths and non disclosure associated with "extreme prejudice" which means death by torture for whomever speaks out.


Knowledge, and hence science and technology, have been kept out of our reach for eons. This might be one reason that the Library of Alexandria was burned down. It is possibly why many secret societies have kept their "lore" veiled in the deepest secrecy, with only morsels revealed slowly and bit by bit to the highest members and with certain top level members tasked with guarding from all others the keys to knowledge. This is also why much has been compartimentalized, on a need to know basis, to ensure that all anyone can see is a part of a fragmented puzzle, destructured in such a way as to prevent anyone from understanding what it amounts to.


Here is where the Vatican comes in. For it has taken charge of all the Secrets of Ancient Rome, of each and every one of its Colonies, of those gathered and assembled by its members from the many noble families of Europe and initiates turned Catholic from elsewhere. It has absorbed many peoples and organizations, it has coopted knowledgeable people from all walks of life, it has transacted information whenever useful and thus gained access to whatever might be useful, it has set up a network of Jesuits who were the first organized global secret service since the 16th century, it has used the confessional and deathbed confessions to increase intelligence gathering, and it has kept aside all data in secret air tight vacuum vaults in the Vatican Library.


If anyone has "advanced technology" so far beyond our own to be called Sci-Fi, then it is more likely that it might be the Vatican rather than the US Military Intelligence Black Ops? Just throwing that idea out there. I'd imagine that they would be - more than anyone due to their field of endeavor - most interested in the Human Soul and ways in which it might be injected into a Cloned body. Also this is just speculation on my part, since I have no access to the vast amounts of highly protected Secret Data kept locked up in the Vatican Library said to contain the knowledge of Humanity plus much more...

And secret knowledge has been passed on across generations through secret societies which date back to the "mystery schools" of Egypt and beyond. Hiding and encoding it in metaphorical passages usually incorporated into holy writ and "out in the open" sources which the uninitiated would miss...

I know all this. At least the theories behind it. The thing is, it's mostly theory mixed with some fantasies, if not plain disinformation to distract people. And what "knowledge" was originally planted therein would be so terribly distorted across the ages as to be worthless to people, even people in the know. Science fiction remains science fiction up to a point, but even well-described it won't become science unless certain breakthroughs are made. A good example is this cloning theory. Clones would still take a lifetime to grow just like any other human being, regardless of instilling them with an established consciousness from another human being, which is probably the farthest fetched bit of all. Yeah, some time ago I also read about secret government experiments and the so-called Soul Chip (which sounds like something borrowed from a discarded movie script). I think it's all too much trouble than it's worth. The same category of weirdness brings us theories like a Jesus being cloned from DNA extracted from the Shroud of Turin. Come to think of it, I think there was a (new) Outer Limits episode just about that...

You have to just take a step back and separate truth from fantasy sooner or later...otherwise you could find yourself going off the deep end. I think that's what happened to David Icke (unless it was all the money and publicity he exponentially made on his books which did it!).

This is my information about the Jesuits, coming from a leaked Ill manual...

The Illuminati infiltrated the Catholic Church. Ignatius of Loyola, the founder of the Jesuits, was also a member of the illuminati. He assembled ostensibly orthodox Catholic intellectuals working on the inside to act as a Trojan Horse to gradually erode and discredit the Church. The Vatican began to suspect the Jesuits and suppressed the Order from 1773 and 1814. When the Jesuit Order was reinstated, it was under much tighter Vatican control, and the illuminati lost their influence over it.

FWIW

Vatican-owned Sant’Apollinare church

Interesting.
The Mafia stems from a Spanish secret society called La Garduña.

Tradition says that a holy man named Apollinario from Cordoba, had a vision of the Virgin Mary. In this vision he was told he would be the savior of Spain and drive out the Moors. He claimed that the Virgin Mary had given him a button which she said had been taken from the robe of Christ. (The mafia soldiers are also called ‘Buttons’, it could be that is where the term originates, its religious sense)

Maybe that's why the mobster was buried in the Sant'Apollinare (Apollinario) cemetary.
Just to add to the pandoras box.
