The Amanda Knox Appreciation Thread

[quote=“The Runt”]The paths for the images don’t seem to be right.

She wore a controversial t-shirt at one stage during the trial as well. Can’t remember what it was though?[/quote]

She wore a “ALL YOU NEED IS LOVE” t-shirt one day.

I hate the Beatles and I wasn’t happy with that.

:eek:

A spoilt, oversexed, murderous bitch. If it was a bloke everyone would be delighted at the verdict. Lex dura, sed lex.

Justice has been done.

Raffaele is not getting much of a look in.

:rolleyes:

Documentary about her trial on More 4 now.

This is just finishing up now.

Barely any evidence to convict her in particular. Crazy.

Didn’t see the programme but you’d have to wonder about agendas in things like this. Not disputing the facts of the case but there were sections of the media that just couldn’t wait to row in behind the lass locked up in an Italian jail and subjected to the horrors of the Italian justice system.

I’d want to know an awful lot about the makers of the programme before I drew too many conclusions from it.

And she’s hot.

What a waste.

I would agree with that but just look at the stone cold evidence convicting Knox.

DNA found on the handle of a knife located in the kitchen drawer of her Italian bloke’s gaff. A miniscule amount of DNA (not an amount to be enough according to the programme) of the victim found on the blade. That knife could not have inflicted all the wounds so the prosecutors said there must have been two. The second has never been found.

Enough? I don’t think so.

Maybe not.

She obviously didn’t help herself with changing her story and things.

I’d need to read more about it but kind of lost faith with some of Channel 4’s documentaries after that Great Global Warming Swindle thing last year. Released it in a blaze of publicity and apologised for the errors and for distorting the facts and the views of scientists afterwards.

Now Amanda Knox faces slander charge

CONVICTED murderer Amanda Knox appeared in court sporting a boyish new look yesterday as she faced accusations of slandering Italian police while on trial for the murder of British student Meredith Kercher.

Knox claimed she was twice hit by a police officer during interrogation in Perugia.

Along with her Italian former boyfriend, Raffaele Sollecito, she was found guilty of killing Ms Kercher in December.

Knox, 22, made her first public appearance since she was led away in tears after the verdict. The American student – who once called herself “Foxy Knoxy” – returned to court yesterday with cropped hair, after doing away with the long locks she had at her trial. She wore a plain, low-cut yellow T-shirt during the brief, private preliminary hearing in Perugia, largely devoted to technicalities.

Ms Kercher, 21, from Coulsdon, Surrey, was found dead in her bedroom in the Umbrian hilltop town on 2 November, 2007, in the house she shared with Knox and others on her year abroad. Her throat was slit and her semi-naked body partially covered by a duvet.

During her trial Knox claimed she had been subjected to violent treatment during questioning by Italian police. Police have denied misconduct and filed slander charges against her. But her lawyer said any such defendant should have the right to defend herself in court without risk of facing slander charges.

Some Mafia fella is claiming it was his brother that killed Meredith Kercher.

:rolleyes: Give it up you murderous bitch.

Knox claims innocence at appeal

Amanda Knox, the American jailed in Italy for the murder of her British flatmate, insisted at the second hearing of her appeal trial this morning that she was innocent, and said it was a mistake to keep her in prison.

Knox was sentenced to 26 years in prison in December 2009 for her part in the killing of 21-year-old Meredith Kercher after what judges said was a frenzied sex game that spiralled out of control.

Her then boyfriend, Raffaele Sollecito, and another man, Rudy Guede, were also convicted for their roles in the murder.

“I and Raffaele are paying with our lives for a crime we did not commit,” an emotional Knox told the court on Saturday. “It’s unjust that I have spent three years in prison. It was all a mistake,” she added, speaking in Italian.

Knox, 23, appeared in court in a grey sweater for the second hearing in her appeal, which began on Nov. 24. She broke down in tears as she sympathised with Kercher’s family.

“I am very sorry that she is not here any more, I also have younger sisters and the thought of losing them terrifies me,” she said.

Kercher died in November 2007. Her half-naked body was found locked in her blood-splattered bedroom in the house she shared with Knox and two other students in the university town of Perugia.

She had a deep stab wound in the throat.

Prosecutors accused Knox of persuading Guede and Sollecito to take part in an extreme sex game involving Kercher, which turned violent. They said Knox was furious at Kercher for criticising her for promiscuity and a lack of cleanliness.

Knox, whose case drew huge interest around the world, said a false image had been painted of her. “I am not a mean, devilish, uncaring or violent person, I have never
been that girl,” she said.

Family and friends of Knox, and some US media, have said her conviction was a miscarriage of justice.

Further hearings in the appeal trial are scheduled for December 18th and January 15th.

Carriage of misjustice.

One of the all time great TFK phrases.

Amanda is improving a little bit again recently:
