The prosecution and the judgment
The Gavelio Magistrates
Identical twins of the judiciary and Gaio Sventura's recurring nightmare, the Gavelio brothers split the law evenly starting from their names. Nunzio, the Public Prosecutor, devotes his entire existence to serving notices of investigation and announcing apocalyptic charges; Giusto, the Judge, is the scale of the courtroom, though decidedly inflexible in practice. Together they form the perfect bureaucratic trap: depending on the case they swap chairs, or pass each other secret case files during Sunday family lunches. Nunzio investigates harshly, Giusto sentences severely.
