One day left - Do you think Knox is guilty?

[Usui Takumi 1,562]

IMO she is innocent simply because there is not once piece of evidence that conclusively connects her to the crime scene. I also do not believe the trial has been fair, evidence tampering, a judge facing charges, the fact that the jury can follow the news etc means that this trial will be suspect. In fact, I believe that if this was in the US the prosecution wouldn't even have enough evidence to hold the charges in court.

Guilty.

Yes.

I have no idea, but it sure is a weird story.

[Usui Takumi 1,562]

Knox as in Amanda Knox. At first when the evidence came forward I was like: yeah she's guilty. But i've been following this in the last 3 months or so and I can't see one thing that connects her. The knife with the victims dna on the tip doesn't match as the murder weapon. There is no evidence showing that Knox was in the place (except her early confession that was without A.a lawyer B. no translator. And at that time she spoke little Italian.

There is the bra, but again forensic experts can't agree regarding her dna on that. There is the shoe print that was supposed to be the boyfriend's...except its not close to matching his....

Then you have witnesses stating that the two really didn't know the convicted killer very well because he primarily was a friend of the victim. Plus I find it ironic that his dna was everywhere (including the sewer...not going into more detail there) but nothing connecting them?

Even the tabloid info at the beginning is stupid...like oh she went underwear shopping after the killing. If your effectively locked out of your house what do you need? Hmm toothpaste/toothbrush...oh maybe clean underwear.

I'm now very interested in the book "The Monster of Florence" which I should pick up.

Here is some info regarding the book:

I have half-azzed followed the case through the UW's student newspapers. She gives me the hibbie jibbies.

[Saddle Bronc 124]

No verdict yet.

[~krakatoa~ 27]

Based on the evidence, I'd say she's not guilty. But my hunch is telling me otherwise, not that it matters. lol

This is playing out as a great suspense novel. I'm curious to know how it plays out in the end.

Her hair is always greasy looking... she should be put away on that offence alone.

guilty

[Saddle Bronc 124]

That WAS the verdict

[Usui Takumi 1,562]

Yep so sad! Not sure why but for some reason I've taken this trial kinda personally...I don't know maybe because I was a student who lived 20 miles or so away from the crime scene when I was her age.
