Amanda Knox should surrender to Italian authorities, The EVIDENCE Is Clear Enough- SHE DID IT.

220. Because his other ruling is linked to actual EVIDENCE -- and the lack thereof.

He ruled correctly that there was no evidence to support a guilty verdict. And there wasn't.

The murder room was most certainly the crime scene. Amanda lived in the cottage, so finding her DNA in her own bathroom was meaningless. The lack of any evidence of Amanda in the murder room or on the victims body, OTOH, was critical.

The police didn't collect much evidence from other parts of the cottage. But they did find evidence of the burglar Guede's DNA on Meredith's purse -- evidence that tied him to the stolen rent money, but that the prosecution chose not to pursue.

The police didn't look for Amanda's DNA in her own room because that would have been a ridiculous waste of time. Are you really that uninformed or do you just think other people are?

Guede wouldn't have gotten his fast track trial and his reduced sentence UNLESS he agreed to the prosecution's stipulations -- so yes, his LIES did directly lead to his reduced sentence. The fast track trial required the stipulations, i.e., the lies.

What is particularly ugly about their system is the way they used a trial in which Amanda and Raffaele did not participate -- Rudy Guede's fast track trial -- to produce "truths" that were then used against them in their appeals trial. "Truths" they were not allowed to dispute and that the appeals judge was required to incorporate into his motivation.

This wasn't a modern trial. It was a 14th century inquisition.
