Knox Appeal

Post by goonersid »

Anyone else been fascinated by this case? A jury is now due to give it's verdict. I personally think she and her boyfriend are guilty but they may well be cleared.
If they are innocent then it has been a terrible miscarriage of justice.

Its cases like this that are really scarey. I dont know all the inner details, but it seems as if there is real doubt.

Apparently there is no forensic evidence to say she was there, but they found part of merediths bra, and a knife which they say was the murder weapon at knox' boyfriends house.

There seems something really odd about her and her boyfriend, but maybe that a perception i've got from what i've heard in the media.

Both equitted.

Rossie, there has already been a tv movie about it with the cheerleader from hero's got loads of stick in the media.

And yes there is talk about a movie. Amanda Knox will be a millionare by the end of the month i reckon.

Merediths family are totally justified in being disgusted with movie companies thrying to make money oout of the story of their daughters death.

the verdict could be overturned in appeal, something doesnt seem right to me but the yanks wont extradite her as we know they dont really care about laws in other countries

Well she and her boyfriend were found innocent. Still can't shake the feeling that they have got away with murder there. Something not right about the way they acted following the murder. Of course if they were innocent then its a terrible ordeal.

Had a feeling this would happen, I suppose the only people who know the truth are those who were there or not there as the case may be.

So the only bloke found guilty and in prison is... the black bloke. Italian justice, huh? :roll: :banghead:

I agree there is something off about Knox and her boyfriend. The videos of them outside the house the morning after - they both looked scared, stoned and like 2 school kids outside the headmaster's office, but they didn' loook sad or grieving... of course you can't jail people on a feeling but I reckon they killed her.

I always felt they were guilty. Feel so sorry for the murdered girls family, even more so now

Italian justice? The bloke admitted it I thought, and there wasn't sufficient evidence IMO to do the other two.

While I agree that the pair of them are odd it doen't make them murderers.

I totally agree however that if anyone has any dignity that a film of this sorry tale will be blocked. Sure let Knox tell her story but a film is just too far.

The whole case has been a fuck up from start to finish and if the Italian old bill had sone their job properly in the first plave this would have all been over and done with over four years ago whatever the outcome.

I too think something odd about the pair and something odd and unsettling about the whole trial, not sure the bloke found guilty was involved.

Oh he was definitely involved...he hasn't admitted to involvement in the murder as someone suggested, but there is no doubt he is one of the culprits if not the culprit...
There was a multitude of evidence putting him at the scene, his dna was on her and he left a shit in the toilet..so he couldn't deny he was there..So he made up a story that she invited him back, he had some sexual contact with her, went to the toilet and when he was in the toilet she was murdered by an unknown assailant :roll: ...

The only question is did he break in to the house on his own and do it all himself or did Knox and Sollecito bring him back there...

I think they brought him back there and were involved with what happened, for me it's the only thing that explains all the lies that were told by knox and Sollecito from the very start, and of course the strange behaviour didn't exactly make them look innocent...

I think their acquittal is just another example of American style justice at work, just temporarily imported to Italy.. Throw lots of money, resources and propaganda at the case, blackening and discreditting the judge, the prosecution, the witnesses ..Relentlessly portray the accused as some sort of angel and everyone opposing her as scum and liars and just pretend anything that taints her that they can't disprove or discredit doesn't exist and voila not guilty it is .....
