Early life and education
Trabucchi was born in Verona on 29 June 1904.[1] His family founded a law firm in Verona in 1875.[2] His brother, Alberto, was also a lawyer and would become the mayor of Illasi.[3] Their grandfather, Alessandro Trabucchi, was an officer in the Italian army during both world wars and a soldier of the partisan resistance in Piedmont after the signing of the armistice.[2]
He received a degree in law from the University of Padua.[2]
Career
Trabucchi served as the senator for the Christian Democracy in the 2nd and 3rd legislatures.[1] He was appointed minister of finance to the Tambroni cabinet in March 1960 and was in office until July 1960 when the term of the cabinet ended.[1] He also held the same office in the third and fourth cabinets of Amintore Fanfani (July 1960- February 1962 and in February 1962, respectively).[1]
In the mid-1960s Trabucchi was accused by public prosecutor of Rome of involving in two bribery incidents, but the parliamentary commission did not provide the necessary authorization to proceed.[4][5]
