How can one be so quick to judge? The majority of the comments on here seem to be sardonic and jocular judgements, which have no basis in logic or reason. Yes, she behaved a little strangely during the initial investigation, but that doesn't necessarily mean we should dunk her in water and see if she floats... (for lack of a better idiom). There seems to be quite a bit of hysteria surrounding this case; allegations of satanic rituals, jealousy, drug induced rape... I smell a witch hunt.

She and her BF were not involved. Rudy Guede is the sole perpetrator of this rape/murder.

My reasoning is in this post:

If she were in America she would have gotten a fair trial. She is free and hopefully they are flying home within hours.

I would get the hell out of Italy as they do not have Double Jeopardy.

They can turn right around and convict you.

America isn't perfect, but it beats the Italian justice system.

Good for her and her family to never give up hope of being freed.

The prosecution reminds me of Jose Baez, throwing any number of "could be's" at the wall and see what sticks:

1. Knox was jealous of Kercher
2. Kercher was raped
3. Sex game gone wrong
4. Drug money issues
5. Satanic ritual
6. Kercher was a victim of reefer madness at the hands of Knox

Agreed. I'm not convinced by their 'evidence' and I'm glad she has been set free.

There was never enough evidence and the judge and prosecutor were corrupt.
