Simone Pianetti
Simone Pianetti (7 February 1858 – unknown) was an Italian liberal and mass murderer. Biography Pianetti was born in Camerata Cornello, Lombardy, Austrian Empire. The area came under the control of Italian forces when he was still an infant and was made part of the Kingdom of Italy when it was formed in 1861.
