In the Ceka and Matteotti's killing

Born as the son of Italian immigrants to the United States, Dumini returned to Florence and became active in the local fascio organized by partisans of Benito Mussolini, preffering to be referred to as "sicario del Duce" ("Il Duce's hitman").

Dumini was the leader of the group that carried out the killing of Giacomo Matteotti in the same year. Immediately after the action, he was abandoned by the Fascist leadership, with the exception of Roberto Farinacci, who defended him during his trial. While Farinacci declared himself "honored" by the task, he could not prevent Dumini from receiving a five-year prison sentence. Of these, he only served eleven months, benefitting from an amnesty ordered by Mussolini.

Once out of jail, he tried his hand at blackmailing the fascist leadership, trying to obtain rewards and the payment of his legal fees. Ostentatiously, he sought a meeting with Mussolini at the Italian Council of Ministers. He argued his reason for it as "I am here in order to wash Matteotti's blood off my hands". Arrested, he faced trial for "offending Il Duce", and was sentenced to eight years in prison - substantially more than for the previous crime.

Exiles and new prison terms

Freed in 1927, Amerigo Dumini left for Italian Somaliland, being awarded a large state pension (5,000 lire). Apparently, he was still viewed as troublesome, since he was detained and interned on the Tremiti Islands. Meanwhile, he warned General Emilio De Bono that he had filed a manuscript detailing Matteotti's murder with notaries in Texas. This claim led to his release, and he came to receive a pension as high as 50,000 lire. He left for the Italian colony of Libya, where his pension was further increased by 2,500 lire (together with a single payment of 125,000 lire).
