Hmm... don't know the facts to judge, but seems to me like PR has won this.

It seems wrong because justice cannot be blind when it's played out in the media.

I read around the trial a short while after the original verdict and felt like it was a very tenous conviction.

Well, even if she was/is guilty the way the italians handled the evidence was pretty fucking appauling tbh. I guess she can enjoy christmas with her parents now, shame about Meredith's tho they must be going through hell right now.

Tbh I'm glad she's been cleared and I hope she sues the arse off the Italian justice department. Not because I think she's innocent, I don't and likely never will know that but because of the shoddy way the evidence was processed in the first place.

I feel for Merediths family because as Blood said they must be going through hell. However at the same time I feel for Knox because she shouldn't have been convicted in the first place.

Knox and Meredith's family should both sue the italians, knox because of how it was handled and meredith's family because the italians have let a potential killer walk free because of it ultimately defiling meredith's memory.

They already convicted someone else of Kerchers murder. Why they didn't stand trial together we'll never know, but the whole thing was a giant media circus, glad she got out, and my sympathies for anyone ever caught in the Italian legal system.

In comparison, if that had been in the US, it would never had made trial.

Wait, seriously? The Fail actually published that? There goes any credibility they've got left!

That's nearly as good as their fallout 3 = terrorism story. I do wonder how they stay in business.

I don't. There will be yokels in the pubs back home (Norfolk) sat infront of the news at 10 tonight, telling people that the BBC have got it wrong and that she was guilty and sent back to prison. The Mail is like their bible.

In the US they probably wouldnt have messed up collecting the dna evidence and then it could have gone either way.

And how do you go about sueing a foreign justice department? Not to mention the fact that the moment she steps back into the country she's going to be put back in prison for the appeal appeal.

If money is involved she'll find a way, that said she'll be making millions now off the back of a poor lasses murder, regardless of who killed her.

If she does make money, then I hope it's off the back of an Italian justice system that took four years of her life based on very suspect evidence.

she doesnt need to go back to italy tho, once in america only way they can get her back is thro extradition, there is a treaty between the two countries but its never been used

Considering the amount of debt her family have had to take on in legal fees, a bit of money from books and interviews doesn't sound too bad.

Maybe she didn't do it. But you know the score: spoilt brat from a very wealthy family decides to do the European tour thing, goes to Italy, meets a guy, has wierd tiesy-upsy sex games with her flat mate, it goes wrong, spoilt bitch freaks out, throws a hissy fit & cuts her throat. The family pays the Mafia to rig the legal process, she does 4 years of showtime, and she's out making her millions. Film & book deals galore to follow. Bored of hearing about her TBH. Its the poor Kircher family I feel sorry for.

You should send that in to the Fail. They'd print it as gospel! Pretty far fetched Lamp...

My sympathies are with the poor family of the murdered girl. TBH I really couldn't give two shits about Knox. At least she's alive. The Kirchers have a life sentence the day their daughter was killed.
