Is this or is this not the conclusion of the report re: the knife:

ITEM 36 (KNIFE)

Relative to the genetic analysis performed on trace A (handle of the knife), we agree with the conclusion reached by the Technical Consultant regarding the attribution of the genetic profile obtained from these samples to Amanda Marie Knox.

Relative to trace B (blade of the knife) we find that the technical analyses performed are not reliable for the following reasons:

1. There does not exist evidence which scientifically confirms that trace B (blade of knife) is the product of blood.

2. The electrophoretic profiles exhibited reveal that the sample indicated by the letter B (blade of knife) was a Low Copy Number (LCN) sample, and, as such, all of the precautions indicated by the international scientific community should have been applied.

3. Taking into account that none of the recommendations of the international scientific community relative to the treatment of Low Copy Number (LCN) samples were followed, we do not accept the conclusions regarding the certain attribution of the profile found on trace B (blade of knife) to the victim Meredith Susanna Cara Kercher, since the genetic profile, as obtained, appears unreliable insofar as it is not supported by scientifically validated analysis;

4. International protocols of inspection, collection, and sampling were not followed;

5. It cannot be ruled out that the result obtained from sample B (blade of knife) derives from contamination in some phase of the collection and/or handling and/or analyses performed.

Having read that conclusion are you going to continue to insist that the knife was the murder weapon???

Uncle Chip, are you the blogger who runs the “Injustice in Perugia” website? Just wondering.

Anyway, the report you posted was made by defense witnesses. Other experts who testified disagreed with C & V.

Try this website. But scroll down to the photo of the knife for an argument that this was the murder weapon:

The more I read, the more they come across as guilty. Your theory is that Guede acted alone, but then who cleaned up (or tried to) and staged a break-in after he ran out the door?
