I believe Amanda Knox and her boyfriend are guilty. I looked at the transcripts for the original court case and the following examples of evidence / information was put forward ( there are lots more, this is just a sample)
- the burglary was definitely staged
I don't think so. The evidence shows that the rock that was used to break the window was thrown from the outside as it damanged the shutters on the inside of the window. There is also the possibilty that the 'ransacked' room was actually the room of a messy inhabitent. Point being, this room was never properly investigated by the police to prove without doubt there was a staged break-in. RG likely moved stuff around looking for items (money etc) and would have therefore moved around glass etc, but again not properly investigated. He has however commited a similar burgulary type crime by entering through a window similar to the situation in this case.
Two police officers entered the house the morning after the murder, they were not there to answer a 911/999 call about the burglary. They were investigating the two mobile phones belonging to Meredith that had been thrown into the garden of someones house. Upon arriving, they assessed the scene and verified, under oath that the burglary was staged and glass was found on top of items strewn around the floor. Lap tops, TV, items of value in the other roommates room (where the burglary took place) were not stolen, this and forensic evidence was submitted in court.
- According to Amanda knox, she entered the house in the morning, door was open, Merediths door shut, there was blood in the bathroom ( if you have seen pictures of that bathroom, its obvious that it was a crime scene) she then took a shower in this bathroom
Bathroom crime scene has been debunked.
Amanda Knox claimed she took a shower the morning of the murder, without checking a) why the front door (which could only be locked with a key) was wide open when she entered the house and b) Meredith's door was shut also (when she knew, as others have testified) that this was not a usual practice from Meredith. No calling out to her, no checking, she just has a shower. The room, she says had what she perceived to have menstrual blood 'spattered' around (make your own assumptions on that one! ) Evidence provided and officers at the scene saw a 'blood soaked' bathroom mat on the floor. Amanda claimed that because there wasn't any towels in the bathroom, she used this 'blood soaked' bathroom mat to dry her feet on / shuffle on (hence she claims why her bloody footprints were found leading from Meredith's room to the bathroom). Bloody footprints identified as Rudy Guede were found leading from Meredith's room to the front door.
- Irrefutable proof on Merediths body and crime scene that more than one person killed her / was involved
Not really. The injuries sustained by Meredith could have been caused by a large person inflicting a violent attack. Her hair was pull to restain her, and a pathologist seperate of the investigation has stated the injuries could have been cause by an individual. Rudy Guede carried out this attack, his bloody hand print (with DNA and merediths blood) was found....this is damning evidence.
Forensics stated under oath that Meredith had been restrained by other people whilst another carried out the attack. This was the first part of damning evidence in this case that was rock solid - otherwise why on earth would there even be a case against Amanda Knox and Rafaelle in the first place? If they can't even prove that there was more than one person at the crime scene or that Meredith was restrained then they should not have had two other suspects at all. This is where the evidence is strongest.
There is no concrete evidence to link AK and RS to the murder, and a guilty plea needs to be beyond all reasonable doubt. HOW they were found guilty without the evidence shows the sheer lack of professioanlism by the Italian Police who wanted to interrogate and break down AK, which they did with her confession of the landlord being present. She was interrogated for 43 hours over 5 days (your working week), they tried there best to break her into pieces by talking in a forgein language to someone who was scared.
I don't think she's (or RS) guilty, I think the Italian police have done a really shit job. Rudy Guede is guilty of murder and is behind bars.
Just my two cents
I have followed the case from the start, it's interested me quite a bit and I like reading it. But I do believe Guede is guilty, and acted alone, and is serving his time. I think the Italian Police are trying to cover there backsides for some seriously shoddy work.
