During the Second World War, Italy and Germany were united under the Axis Alliance. Benito Mussolini, the Fascist Dictator of Italy and Adolf Hitler were very close friends and they met a number of times during the conflict to discuss their joint war effort. But Mussolini rose to power years before Hitler did within Germany, but there was a dirty secret the Italian Dictator had with regards to the fact he was technically a bigamist. These claims could have caused him to lose a great deal of favour during his early days as Prime Minister of Italy, but his treatment of his first wife and also his first son was disgusting. It's alleged that Mussolini organised the killing of his wife and also his son.
Ida Dalser and Mussolini met in Milan and Dalser owned a beauty salon in the city, but she eventually sold it to fund Mussolini's new enterprise, a newspaper that he was writing. She fell head over heels for him and gave him lots of money, and they did marry around 1914. Dalser, (Mussolini's first wife) then became pregnant and gave birth to a son which was named after his father, Benito Albino Mussolini. However before the son was born, Mussolini had already left Dalser was then married Rachele Guidi. This meant he had two marriages, and Mussolini left his son and had nothing to do with the boy named after him.
But when Mussolini rose to power in Italy, it was dangerous for him to have any scandal. He tried to silence his first wife and also his son. His son, Benito Albino Mussolini was a member of the Italian Navy, and he told many people who his father was. His mother Dalser was silenced as she was locked up inside of a mental hospital before she died in 1937, but Benito Mussolini Junior also suffered a horrific fate. As he continued to tell people who his father was, he was arrested and placed inside a mental institution, but it was here where in 1942 he died. It's believed that upon the orders of his father, Mussolini Junior was murdered using a lethal injection, or was killed by electric shock therapy. With this it's easy to link the fact Mussolini wanted to silence his son and the killing of him, and it draws parallels to an organised execution. The story of Ida Dalser and Benito Mussolini Junior are incredibly sad.
