The Sun will probably be next on Mignini's list of defamation lawsuits. (He's already sued several other journalists covering this case.) I assume the SUN recorded their interview with him.

A CONFESSION said to have been dragged out of Knox after nearly 52 hours of intense police interrogation was "half fact, half fiction", Italian prosecutor Giuliano Mignini has admitted to The Sun.
He even said he chose to go with the parts of the testimony that suited his case.
The Sun has also discovered that both the police and prosecutor failed to follow strict Italian legal rules.
They require cops to record all interviews with suspects, to provide non-Italian speakers with a translator and to have a lawyer present. Knox was arrested just a few weeks after she had arrived in Italy and could not speak Italian.
According to the article, Mignini also offered up an entirely new theory of the case to explain why there was no evidence of Amanda at the crime scene: he said that she could have directed the crime from outside of the room! (As opposed to actually wielding the knife herself, which is what she was accused of.)
Finally, he asked the SUN reporter that the details of the interview remain "in his office." Right. He must be used to that sort of treatment.
