D. Ignazio Pizzuto was a priest, he was mentioned as "sacerdote", that means "priest" in Italian.
D. is a contraction for Don, that is also a contraction for the Latin word "dominus", that means "Mister/Sir": Don is still today a honorific title given for priests in Italian-speaking world.
Don Ignazio Pizzuto was the landowner of the land where Raimondo Di Mauro died.
