I didn't follow it in a lot of detail but the evidence against her didn't seem particularly convincing and they seemed to have used some questionable methods in questioning her. Although that said, it wouldn't surprise me if she were guilty, there were a few holes in her story if I remember rightly

Oh and, alleged murdering aside, she's pretty hot

Here's an interesting piece, giving 5 reasons as to why she might be guilty and 5 for why she might be innocent: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worl...asons-why.html

Got to say the 5 reasons for her being guilty seem more convincing to me

I'm not surprised, the accusations seemed a bit flimsy and I heard that the Italian police screwed up a lot during the investigation. It's what happens when you just aim to close a case instead of discovering the truth, innocent people will most likely suffer.

Sky News

A Bra clasp of Merideth's was analized 6 weeks after the Murder and found to have Rafaele Selechito's Blood on it. Cross contamination possible. And DNA evidence found to be unreliable.

If that's the Courts finding it's hard to argue i guess.

No, she was a foreign student in italy, I'm not sure what she was studying. She was accused of murdering a british girl with her boyfriend, they were meant to have helped a crazy guy do it.



Hayden Panettiere played her in a movie.

Its the right decision on the basis of the evidence but I'm not convinced shes innocent. No smoke without fire and all that.

If she is guilty then I guess the 4 years in prison and having her name dragged through the mud on a worldwide scale (not usually done in murder cases) is punishment enough. If she didn't do it then she can take consolation in the alleged big money deals coming her way. No doubt she'll be on ITV's This Morning at some point, they love stories like hers.

I see Rudy gadae has been convicted of killing Merideth Kartcher, Amanda Knox was convicted of helping Rudy Gadea. I did not know that.
