The tragic end of Clara Petacci is one of the most dramatic and grim episodes in the history of World War II. It happened on April 28, 1945, near the village of Giulino di Mezzegra at Lake Como in Northern Italy. Benito Mussolini and Clara Petacci were captured by Italian partisans as they attempted to flee to Switzerland. Their capture followed a period of waning power for Mussolini, who had been rescued from imprisonment just two years prior, largely due to Petacci's behind-the-scenes influence.
