<p>Does it mean that that that uber-moron and abject twit that goes by the name Nancy Grace will reopen “her case” again? </p>
<p>WHAT??? Mikemac, your scenario is bizarre beyond words.</p>
<p>The whole thing is bizarre but if I were Amanda Knox I would not step foot out of the United States for the rest of my life. </p>
<p>Well, Mikemac, your theory has just as much basis in facts as the Italian prosecutor’s case, so at least you have that. Would you want to have a justice system that sends someone to jail for 30 years based on a theory you pulled out of thin air?</p>
<p>This case is all about Italians hating Americans. It just goes to show the backwardness of the Italian judicial system.</p>
<p>Which is why they went after the Italian, too? </p>
<p>Mikemac, you’re out of your mind.</p>
<p>I wonder what the Italian man in the street thinks about all this. Does anyone know?</p>
<p>She will never be able to go to Europe again if Italy’s Supreme Court upholds this verdict. Italy will simply issue a European arrest warrant. Personally I think she is guilty but I don’t think anyone will ever truly know what happened that night.</p>
<p>I am curious as to what Rudy Guedes’ side of the story is. I must have missed this, but is he accepting full responsibility for this crime or does he contend the other 2 were involved as well? I mean he was there. Anyone know what he said transpired that evening? And if he is not talking, why not?</p>
<p>And where is the ex-boyfriend? I think I would have high tailed it to a country without extradition! Now it goes again to some high court? What kind of crazy system is this? Just keep trying a case until you find someone to agree with you?</p>
<p>So, nordicblue, you believe that the guy that broke in, raped her, stabbed her, left his bloody footprints and fingerprints, stole her keys, phone, and credit card, then left the country is the wrong guy?</p>
<p>Does everyone forget that the guy confessed to doing it alone, along with providing all of the details? It was only after Mignini convinced Guede that he would only have to serve the minimum sentence if he testified against the two college students that they were brought back into the scenario.</p>
<p>Actually I don’t remember all the details. I do remember that there didn’t seem to be any evidence against the two of them, but that she acted strangely enough to raise eyebrows. But then again, who knows who was telling the truth as the prosecutor wasn’t exactly above board either. </p>
<p>Actually, Rudy Guede was not the thug that most people think he was. After his biological father moved back to his home country, a VERY wealthy Itlalian family “adopted” him - I think his biological father was a trusted employee of this family. He was sent to very good private schools, and I believe lived in the guests quarters of their villa. He was not treated as an employee but as a son. He started dabbling in recreational drugs and got in with the party crowd. But I believe prior to this fiasco his digressions were relatively minor.</p>
<p>Also, he was scheduled to leave the country before this crime was committed.</p>
<p>No, I didn’t say Guede was innocent, him being guilty doesn’t mean Konx must be innocent. I’d rather not get into a debate about this because the truth is we are both biased and neither of us are privy to all the facts.</p>
<br>
<br>
<p>The Italian public generally believes she is guilty. There was widespread outrage after her previous acquittal that she had gotten away with murder. </p>
<p>Thanks, coureur. I didn’t know that. </p>
<p>Mikemac…</p>
<p>I hardly doubt that Amanda would arrange for her roomie to be raped just because she didn’t like her. Wasn’t Amanda there for a Study Abroad or something? Amanda would have to be certifiable to do something like that. </p>
<p>I don’t know what happened, but your story is just too “out there.”</p>
<p>I don’t know what to think. On one hand, I’ve actually seen a lot of fairly compelling evidence that suggests Knox was involved. The boyfriend first said the two of them spent the night together, then said that she left the house for hours, then recanted. A knife with both women’s DNA was found at Sollecito’s house, and he offered a silly explanation about Kercher cutting herself while the three of them were cooking to explainit. Knox apparently bought or moved a mop, and came up with an equally convenient story about spilling something on Sollecito’s floor. I’ve seen some people questioning how true her story of abuse at the hands of investigators was, and how much she had to be prompted before accusing an innocent man - and even under duress, some of her statements seem more like bet-hedging than confusion and fear. There’s evidence that multiple killers were involved. The window was broken from the inside, suggesting someone in the house let Guede in. Knox admits to having met Guede before the night of the murder (although to be fair, so had Kercher, I believe). Knox tried to get investigators not to open Kercher’s locked door, saying that there was nothing out of the ordinary in that, until the roommates contradicted her. Unless we assume the police were just fabricating evidence right and left, there’s a lot there.</p>
<p>On the other hand, no one has provided a remotely plausible scenario for why a 20 year old exchange student and her new boyfriend, neither with any prior history of violence, would decide to rape and murder her roommate on a lark. I wonder if the two of them are actually guilty of a cover-up rather than the crime itself - perhaps they had let in the murderers and feared being implicated, and then dug themselves in deeper and deeper. </p>
<p>
</p>
<p>It suggests that the window was broken in some kind of a struggle, period. I don’t see why it suggests anything at all about Guede’s means of ingress.</p>
<p>The broken window wasn’t, IIRC, in the room with the body; it was in one of the other girls’ room. The police were initially called because of evidence of a break-in - window broken, room ransacked, etc. They didn’t open the locked door and find Meredith Kercher until later. So if the window was broken from the inside, it does suggest some attempt at staging the room to look like a break-in. </p>
