Ursicio Di Placidio

Ursicio Di Placidio (died 1503) was a Papal magistrate. Di Placidio was loyal to the House of Borgia, and he was used as a tool to persecute enemies of the family. In 1503, he bore false witness against Ezio Auditore da Firenze, so Auditore assassinated him with his hidden blades; in doing so, he decreased his notoriety by removing a "witness".
