Plus, lookit at the courtroom, the Italians have comfortable couches for people to sit in, instead of hard wooded pews like we do.
Well yeah, she was already convicted of the murder. To overturn that conviction requires an affirmative defence proving she didn't do it.
So you know Amanda Knox and her boyfriend are not guilty?
Perhaps... but the prosecution's still got to make its case.
She’s going to probably do like OJ,, and commision a search for the real killers/
Hoping justice is served and she’s released. I don’t believe for one second she or her boyfriend did this.
Seems that all those reports have been pretty well discredited.
I don’t trust the Italian police because how good a job can they do if they are always trying to keep their hats from falling off???
“Personally, what I have learned out of this is that Italian justice can be anything but just. Some of the facts that have come out of the news coverage regarding the Italian police methods of interrogation, the lawsuits filed by police and prosecutors over statements by Knox and her parents, have shown me that I really never want my liberty to be in the hands of an Italian judicial system.
I have no opinion as to whether she is guilty or not guilty, but I do have an opinion on how corrupt the Italian legal/justice system is.”
If you go to Italy and don’t break their laws, you have nothing to worry about.
In an Italian court - yes she does. The courts have the presumption of guilt, and the defendent has to prove they are innocent. Opposite of the U.S. Or so I have read. I warned my son about this when he visited there this summer.
I lean that she is innocent. But I REALLY lean to the idea that this is a kangaroo system.
Partially overturned....
Overturned!
Because innocent people are never arrested.
Immediate Release!!!!!
It would be nice if it always worked that way, wouldn't it?
OVERTURNED....RELEASED
IMHO, there's plenty of evidence. Ann Coulter provided much of it in her recent column - Amanda Knox: The New Mumia!
Wow!
