Is anyone else as tired of seeing this woman all over the newspapers, talk shows, and cable news networks as I am? There are hundreds of murders that happen every month right here in the USA. What about the dozens of school children that are murdered each year in Chicago? What about the people who murdered them? Why are we hearing about this bitch all day and night instead of them?

Because she's a little bit cute and she's an American being tried overseas so there is going to be this big fit over whether she is getting a fair trial or not. She may not have been the one who put the knife into the girl but she was there when it happened. If you're in the car when someone does a drive-by, you are culpable if they kill someone. Knox is in the same fix.

I think there was a point during the trial where she went into this long discussion about using her vibrator or something to that effect.

GUILTY
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/8394750.stm
American student Amanda Knox and her former boyfriend have been found guilty by an Italian court of the murder of British student Meredith Kercher.
Knox was jailed for 26 years after a jury found her and Italian Raffaele Sollecito, 25, guilty of murder and sexual violence in Perugia in 2007.
Miss Kercher, 21, a Leeds University exchange student from Coulsdon, Surrey, was found with her throat slit.
Knox, 22, had denied killing Miss Kercher during a sex game.
The verdict of the jury, who included two judges, was confirmed by the trial judge.

Doing cartwheels through the hallways of the Police Station while your roommates body is still warm must not have helped her case.

I'm sure she was just in shock.

She reminds me of that beautiful young teacher that masterminded her husband's murder by her students. You would never imagine her capable. They look normal from the outside, but something is missing on the inside.

I just saw the story of this case from Canada from the 90's of a woman involved in "sex murders":
http://www.cbc.ca/news/background/bernardo/
This woman was beautiful, the guy seemed "normal" and look what they did. This woman was very much involved in the rape and murders. You just NEVER know.

Or the devious smiles in the courtroom. Seems like a narcissist to me.

And someone actually married her after her release from prison and she is now a mother with a child of her own. Unbelievable!

I know! I was just reminded of this story on something I was watching yesterday!! UNBELIEVABLE!! And they said had they found the video tapes sooner, she would not have gotten the plea bargain to testify against him that allowed that freedom. SO WRONG

The Amanda Knox story is on Dateline now. It's an old show, I think.

An older article but with information from someone who the American media didn't even mention, Knox's ex-room mate.
http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2009/fe ... trial-knox
The former flatmate of Amanda Knox yesterday told a court trying the American student for murder that she was bewildered by the woman's behaviour on the morning that the crime was discovered.
Blonde, bespectacled Filomena Romanelli also posed a string of problems for the defence. She said that when she returned to the house they shared on 2 November 2007 the washing machine was warm. She later identified most of the clothes inside as those of the victim, Meredith Kercher, a student at Leeds University.
Romanelli also raised an important question mark over a defence claim - that there was a break-in on the night of the killing. And she contradicted Knox on whether Kercher was in the habit of locking herself in her room.
The legal assistant, who spent the night of 1-2 November with her boyfriend, said she and a friend had decided to go to a market in the morning. They were about to arrive there when she received a call from Knox. "There's something strange at the house," she quoted the young American as saying. "I go, 'Ciao, Amanda. What's happened? In what sense?' [She said,] 'I arrived and the door was open.' "
Knox explained to Romanelli that she was going back to the flat of her Italian boyfriend, Raffaele Sollecito. She quoted Knox as saying: "I've taken a shower. Then at Raffaele's place I'll get him to come over. There's blood there, I think."
Romanelli replied: "But Amanda. I don't understand. Explain to me, because there's something odd. The door's open. You take a shower. There's blood. But where's Meredith?"
After Romanelli reached the house, her boyfriend kicked in the door to Kercher's bedroom, where her body was found on the floor in a pool of blood. Other witnesses have testified that Knox earlier told those present that it was not unusual for Kercher to lock her room. But Romanelli said: "Meredith always left her door unlocked."
She said that, knowing by then that the window of her bedroom had been smashed, her first instinct on returning to the flat had been to go to her room. What she saw was "a disaster". Her clothes were on the floor and her cupboard was open. But none of her jewellery was missing, nor her designer sunglasses and handbags. Her laptop was among the clothes. She said there was glass on top of the pile of clothes: "I remember that in lifting the computer I realised that I was picking up bits of glass because there were bits of glass on top and it was all covered with glass."
The prosecution maintains that Knox and her boyfriend faked a burglary. If the glass was on top of the clothes, it suggests the window was broken after the room was rifled.
But Romanelli also reinforced the defence case. She said a police officer entered Kercher's room after the door was broken down. That could mean he left footprints the prosecution have maintained belonged to Sollecito, who is standing trial alongside Knox for the murder.
Kercher died after her throat was slashed. A young drifter, Ivory Coast-born Rudy Guede, has already been convicted of her murder.
Last October he was given a 30-year sentence after opting for a fast-track trial. But the prosecution maintains that Knox and Sollecito took part in the killing.

The fact is that the police and the prosecution did such a horrible miserable job on this that we will never know what happened.
The main piece of "evidence" she was convicted on was an animation the prosecutors made based on what they "thought" happened and then showed to the jury.
They compromised the evidence, have been caught in several lies... and threatened the defendant's parents. This doesn't exactly fill me with confidence that they are telling the truth about anything.
