Well, looks like Italy is *no* party place.
1. She gets a kangaroo court trial by a known crooked prosecutor.
2. She is maybe disrespectful of the system over there, thinking it's all a big mistake and will become clear that she is innocent.
2A. Major mistake, but what could she do anyway???
3. Should serve as a warning to anyone interested in visitin Italy.
4. Too bad the State departments hands are tied!?
...
Well, that's how I see this one.
Party animals not welcome in Italy!!!

I try not to travel too far from home. I came to NZ but still wonder sometimes if I've been routed into The Village.

At least she didn't wind up on Summer Isle.

That proves that "Justice" is blind.

She's an American accused of murdering her roommate in Italy.

Accused of but not proven to have. It would make sense that she's on trial for it.

I think if I did anything stupid over here they would deport me directly back to America and in the hands of the authority over there.

It was proven in court. She's appealing her sentence. She also accused Italian police of beating a confession out of her. As a result she's being sued for defamation by the officers involved

There's a lot of things I've seen that the evidence was corrupt etc.

I'll see if I can find things, I saw some of it in a magazine article and some on TV. Sure there'll be something on google.

Yes. There will be. The defence claimed everything under the sun. First they tried to claim the evidence was contaminated and failed to prove it. Then they tried to defame the DNA analyst's character. When a lawyer starts calling you a liar and a fraud, it's a clear sign of lack of evidence

"Yet there is no forensic evidence directly linking Knox to the crime scene. Traces of Sollecito's DNA was found on Kercher's bra clip. But it was not found by police until long after the killing, and the defence claims it was contaminated."

There was also something in the article I read about the knife they found didn't match the bloody knife print on the bed. There was more which I will try to find.

I think the claim was about the murder wounds. They had two pathologists up, one saying the knife was consistant the other that it might have been a different knife. There was also an argument about blood on the knife. The sample was incredibly small and she had to work to bring up anything usable from it. Me and Tino had this argument already a while back

Yeah, sorry, my mistake, it was the wounds, although I'm sure I did read something about the blood stain.
