I have been following this story since day one and this verdict made me so HAPPPPPY! Yay!!! She's a narcissistic little SOCIOPATH and she deserves to sit her rear end in a foreign prison for the rest of her life.

Anyone who turns cartwheels and slobbers all over her boyfriend in front of an audience just moments after learning that her roommate has been raped and brutally knifed to death is GUILTY (as well as a sociopath). Her parents must be so proud . . .

Her diaries were full of weird violent stuff and she wrote short stories that were also sexually violent and macabre. Sorry, just not normal in my view. It all adds up.

Given that Europe is so soft on crime in general, I suspect anti-American sentiment played into this verdict but that's okay -- in this instance, the end result was that justice was done.

I can only imagine the utter horror her poor roommate had to endure and hope parents will take more care in where they send their children and to whom they entrust them. It makes me sick that there are Americans standing behind this sociopath just because she's American. BS -- she is guilty as charged and I don't accept her as a countryman.

sure she did it. but here that has nothing to do with being found innocent.
its not like that here, here if you got a good lawyer-- you can kill your ex-- her lover- and walk (oj simpson) or probably soon --blow up NYC and walk (911 trial) but not like that in the old country.
saddam hussein was executed in a matter of days. justice is a mideastern thing, when we got rid of jesus we got rid of justice (he was from the mideast and i dont mean ohio).

do yuo think she did it ?

Evidently an Itallian jury thought she did it.

I'm quite sure if an Itallian girl got found guilty of a crime in the US, many Itallians would say she was innocent also.

She will be free at about age 50.
Still lots of her life ahead of her. Hope she has changed by then.

The Italian boyfriend goes on trial next...this verdict pretty much guarantees the same fate for him.




This is Amanda and the boyfriend at the crime scene the morning after the murder

Although Europe does not have the death penalty, most of it is very far from being "soft on crime" except for drugs. If you do crimes in Germany, I know from being there, that you WILL go to JAIL and for longer in many cases than you would get over here for the same crimes. The jails might be a bit more lax than US jails are but they are jails none the less.

The defence said that Ms Knox did not hate Ms Kercher and there was no convincing evidence putting Ms Knox at the scene of the crime. The prosecution claimed that Ms Knox cleaned the cottage after the murder because no fingerprints were found, even in her bedroom.


After a drug induced orgy? I don't know if she is guilty or not but that in and of itself just seems implausible.

OJ Simpson was not a case of a good lawyer as much as a bad prosecutor. A good prosecutor knows that most of the case is won or lost when the jury is picked and that prosecutor did a horrible job of ridding the jury of people that would be obviously prejudiced for the defense (mainly black women). And, no, it is not just a racial thing. If it were a famous good looking white man, I would not want any white women on the jury either.

I read some of the trial transcripts somewhere several months ago.....she's guilty. Her bloody footprints were discovered in the next room where they tried to stage a break-in. A knife with the dead girl's blood was found in the boyfriend's house with Amanda's DNA on it. When asked by police to explain ths knife she said perhaps her boyfriend placed the knife in her hand while she was asleep to get her fingerprints on it.
