Special: Anti-Judaism in Medieval Italy - The case of Simonino da Trento with Lorenzo Paluan
We explore a tragic travesty of justice as we look into the anti-jewish case of Simonino da Trento, a young boy who was found dead in 1475 and whose murder was blamed on the local Jewish community with no tangible proof, leading to their very rapid trial and execution.
