title: JOLANDA BERGAMO TELLS THE INTERROGATION

subject date: 2024-07-25

caption: Jolanda BERGAMO: ''And instead they did nothing but rage against me, for hours and hours,'' she tells the editor; she recently returned to work in the house where she works, after having unfairly been at the center of an investigation for a bad news case. The young, single mother in a period in which prejudices towards her condition were merciless, on the first holiday of her life was brought by fate to share a hotel room in Entrèves (AO) with Angela Cavallero, victim of an atrocious murder. Shocked, she returned before the expected deadline to the comfort of working for the family who loved her and taking care of her child; this had earned her the suspicion of guilt, her arrest and imprisonment for a week, during which popular public opinion had rallied en masse to her side, in solidarity with her story as a working-single-mother, moreover a child with physical problems that she courageously faced alone, also raising the social problem of stigma towards unmarried mothers and the lack of legislation to protect them and their children.
