I'm a bit confused about this. Although I would usually think of "defence of the criminal act", but the fact that the words "vera e propria" come before the term and that this document is definitely biased against those who committed the crime, I wonder if there is something more appropriate. Here's the sentence:
"si vede la doucmentazione del processo per la strage del Diana, caratterizzato dal deciso intervento di Mussolini contro la vera e propria apologia di reato che si svolgeva durante le sedute."
Just to give you a bit more background this is from a description of a Fascist exhibition in 1932, written by the Fascists themselves.

Comment: "I used "apology of crimes" in the end, which is much more common on the Internet, although I think Sarah's "apologia of crimes" is another possibility and the one I first thought of... thank you Rafaella, Sarah and everyone else."

When the resolution was first created, Dennis Hastert had promised several prominent Armenian-American political groups that, if the resolution passed out of committee, he personally would guarantee its discussion on the House floor. Since he reversed his position and violated a public promise, Hastert issued a press release to explain his actions, following a traditional pattern of apologia. What made this case so unique, however, was that Hastert issued the statement via the Internet before any criticisms materialized. In effect, Hastert employed a preemptive apologetic strategy, turning a traditionally defensive rhetorical posture into an offensive rhetorical move. But his justifications and the motives underlying those justifications were so suspect that ultimately the strategy failed. Since Hastert's decision to pull the resolution from the agenda and his application of apologia in a preemptive manner were both so unusual, both merit further consideration.
