Actually this is not true.

The Italian system enables the independence of prosecutors, which then enables the possibility to sentence financial and political elite.
Bare in mind that a person with financial and political power and connections of Berlusconi (and public support, he can still win 30% with some tv propaganda!!!) in most other countries would never get charged... Italy is one of rare remaining countries that manages to prosecute its elite...

If a judge is corrupt (or simply makes a mistake) there is a way to repeat the trial after the prosecution appeal... This is not necessarily a bad feature. On the contrary, in Italy it is one of the crucial instruments in a fight against mafias, since those often tend to corrupt judges.

You think Obama stays in office or out of prison if they found him having bunga bunga parties with underage prostitutes at Camp David? You're out of your mind. Burlosconi on the other hand remained president, laughed and gesticulated his way through those trials - I seen those photos. If it weren't such a sh1tty system with, as you said, so many corrupt judges and constant "mistakes", you wouldn't need constant repeat trials. That is, it exist because a really shytty system requires it as a safeguard against so much sh1ttyness. Granted, by third world standards, it may be a really good system.

Berlusconi has problems with the law besides the sex scandal, he is convicted for tax envasion with Mediaset.
The prosecutors and judges are chosen from the same group, and it is a good system not by third world standards...
