The title places this picture at a trial of Camorra prisoners being taken to court. The Camorra was a loosely organized criminal network based in Naples and the surrounding region, known for extortion, smuggling and violence, and its trials drew wide newspaper attention in Italy and abroad in the early twentieth century. The picture comes from the George Grantham Bain Collection, made by the Bain News Service, a New York agency that sold news photographs to newspapers. The record gives no date or specific trial, and the title comes from caption data that has not been verified.
