Timeline

1946

Francesco Pazienza (born in 1946, Monteparano) is an Italian businessman, and former officer of the Italian military intelligence agency, SISMI.

1970

He worked as a business consultant in France during the 1970s.

1979

In 1979 he was hired into SISMI, and became an assistant to SISMI director, General Giuseppe Santovito.

1980

The Banco Ambrosiano scandal, Roberto Calvi's "suicide," and charges of mishandling state secrets concerned with the 1980 Bologna bombing, made Pazienza a fugitive from Italian law.

Eventually, Pazienza ended up in the United States.

Pazienza later claimed that these Customs agents had told him that Stefano Delle Chiaie had been seen in Miami, Florida, with an unidentified Turk, and repeated his position during the time he was on trial on charges stemming from the 1980 Bologna bombing.

It is unclear if this Turk was Oral Çelik or Abdullah Çatlı.

1981

Pazienza left the intelligence agency in wake of the Propaganda Due scandal that rocked the Italian political scene in 1981.

During the trial of Mehmet Ali Ağca's 1981 assassination attempt on Pope John Paul II, Ağca claimed to have been visited by Pazienza in his prison cell at Rome's Ascoli Piceno (this came just after the presiding judge called for pazienza in the court room ).

That Pazienza visited Ağca was also claimed by a former camorrista turned pentiti, Giovanni Pandico.

From his New York prison, Pazienza denied ever having visited Ağca; Pazienza was question on this issue by Italian investigative judge, Ilario Martella, in New York.

A short time later, Martella dropped the charges of Agca being "coached" by supposed elements from the Italian military intelligence.

When Pazienza was still a fugitive, he was questioned in the United States by Customs agents regarding financial fraud charges brought in Italy that had grown out of the disappearance of funds, about $3 million, from the Banco Ambrosiano.

1984

A first extradition request from Italy was handed to the U.S. government in 1984, but Pazienza was not yet arrested.

1985

His arrest come only on March 4, 1985.

1985 Wall Street Journal investigation suggested that a series of Billygate articles written by Michael Ledeen and published in The New Republic in October 1980 were part of a disinformation campaign intended to influence the outcome of that year's presidential election.

According to the reporting, Francesco Pazienza alleged that Ledeen was paid $120,000 for his work on Billygate and other projects.

Pazienza was later tried and convicted in absentia for using "extortion and fraud to obtain embarrassing facts about Billy Carter".

1986

Extradition procedures ensued, and a judge order him to stand trial in Italy, an appeal process did not change that, and Pazienza was handed over to the Italian government in June 1986.

1988

Pazienza was sentenced in 1988 for trying to divert the investigation into the 1980 bombing of the Bologna train station, on charges relating the planting of similar explosive materials in a train in 1981, leading a trail away from the actual perpetrators.

1990

In 1990, his conviction was reversed on appeals, but a retrial resulted in a definitive prison term handed out in 1995.

2007

As of April 2007, he has been paroled to the community of Lerici, after serving many years in prison, including a 1993 conviction due to his role in the Banco Ambrosiano scandal, and a 1982 conviction for mishandling state secrets.

Pazienza holds a degree in medicine from the University of Rome.
