At very int'll dinner with journos frm italy, US, UK & #amandaknox verdict consensus is could go either way.
Yes, I have been annoyed by those supporting them who have been saying for the past 2 months, "Acquittal is a sure thing." This is not a sure thing at all, and Amanda must be terrified.Truly I will be surprised if they let them out anytime in the next 10 yrs. Appeals are generally harder and they are at every disadvantage since this case has been so sensational.
Thank you all for the warm welcome. The arguments for innoscence seem pretty cut adn dry, guilt is a little harder to wade though because it appears the forensic evidence is useless to me.... I'm tying to concentrate on the timeline to make sence on things. So here are some questions and thoughts I have:
Did MK have mushrooms in her digestive tract?
Seems like the forensics regarding the footprints, knife, dna show innocence as there was no MK dna on knife blade or proven blood, no MK dna in the bloody footprints, and the knife didn't even seem to be the murder weapon (no match for the print on the pillowcase). Soooo, AK and RS said they were home all night..... That seems to be untrue per computer records, phone calls, and eyewitnesses. I'm left with "why lie"?? Am I missing something? So if the store owner saw AK at 7:30 am the morning MK was found dead perhaps she could have cleaned up, but could she get rid of all DNA? Ditto on the wet mop bucket at RS house, could they have gotten it all up? Also, MK door was locked, I read the window had large shards of glass left in it, how did they all get out that window without leaving DNA or breaking the glass, was there a lot found outside? Whose fingerprints were found on MK phone from which the call was made for an account balance? I'm also foggy on the phone call made from MK to her mother, the time in Italy it was made and the relevence!!
Anyone out there that can clear any of this up??
If Meredith's friends memory of her dinner is accurate, Meredith likely died before 10pm. There was food still lodged in her esophagus, but no one knows for sure what it was because it wasn't analyzed. If Meredith snacked through the movie, then she could've died as late as 1 am.
At 10pm, Meredith's phone attempted to make a phone call to her bank. It was near or in the cottage at this time.
Only problem is, there was just as little at the first trial. But with the independent experts, and Hellman at the helm, let us hope that yes, acquittal is pending...

PERUGIA -- Meredith Kercher would have been 25. The British student would have finished her degree at Leeds University and perhaps been preparing for another Halloween, a day she loved.
Instead, her family awaits an appeals verdict expected Monday against former roommate Amanda Knox, of Seattle, who was convicted along with her Italian ex-boyfriend of murdering Kercher in 2007.
:tears::tears:I simply must state something here.
I can understand being cautious when dealing with any jury and how we feel they will see things. I also understand that the Italian judicial system is different. I understand that there are as well cultural differences.
It is my belief that the prosecution did not prove this case thus my opinion they are not guilty. Was I disappointed in the ruling of the trial of the first instance yes. Was I surprised no. Will I be disappointed if they do not correct what I consider to be a wrong yes. Am I emotionally invested no. We will simply move on to the next stage.
I believe though that we also must understand that not all Italians feel the way the prosecution does. While it is argued that there is a rush for aquittal I feel in some there is also a rush not to give this judge and jury some credit.
When the verdict is announced we will all progress from that point till then I will continue to base my opinion on a lack of evidence
http://truejustice.org/ee/index.php“Million Dollar Campaign” To Try To Influence The Jury Is Being Widely Reported To A Startled Italy
It looks like a perfect storm is flaring up in Italy for the hapless Knox PR campaign. Just about every media outlet in Italy seems to be running a variation of this report.
Next Monday will see delivered the verdict against the girl in prison since 2007 on charges of murder of her British roommate Meredith Kercher. The decision was confirmed today by a judge of the court in Perugia.
Meanwhile there transpires shocking news: The Amanda Knox clan has spent a million dollars to change her image and influence the jury. This is one of the allegations made by the prosecutor during the summations of the appeal of Amanda Knox.
“Have you ever seen a defendant who takes on a large public relations firm?” asked the prosecutor Giuliano Mignini, which the people on the benches behind the lawyers deny. “Behind her was a communication campaign for a million dollars.”
The much touted executive jet waiting at the airport to whisk her home gets considerable mention in a very negative way, as does the fact that a freed Knox stands to make many millions.
:great:It's a blog. Nobody cares. I think most people can see through Mignini by now.
So if she decides to go home once she is cleared of the charges, she's "fleeing"? Are the jury that gullible?
Adding this quote, too: from Telegraph piece cited above:
Truly I will be surprised if they let them out anytime in the next 10 yrs. Appeals are generally harder and they are at every disadvantage since this case has been so sensational.
But Massei decided Meredith was lying on her bed all that time, not reading, not phoning her mother, not studying, just lying there playing with her phone and making a call or calls that didn't connect.
In a cold house with no heating on, maybe that's why she hadn't taken off her outdoor things, do you think?
That's all she did for the last two hours and more of her life, before her friends showed up to rape and kill her.
Who was is who mentioned fairy-stories?
