I hear that Miss Knox changed planes in London
Someone dropped the ball She is accused of murdering a British national in many people's eyes. Why could our British police have not arrested her here in London? Even if it happens abroad, I always thought you could be tried for the murder of a British national here in the UK?

They should put their efforts into finding the real killer instead of punsihing innocent parties just so they can close the case quickly. Going after Knox now is a waste of time and resources. |

Amanda is seen as innocent in America. She's safe.
Guede was caught leaving the country after she was killed. The guy is as guilty as the day is long. Britain just hates Amanda because she's American. Anyone who has studied the case knows that there is no way she did it. Many have read salacious material that was debunked years ago. She was interrogated for 54 hours straight, with no lawyer, and by police who weren't fluent in English, and they wouldn't allow her anything to drink for hours. Britain better be careful, because if they even attempt going after this girl, it's going to backfire, and America will act accordingly. |

Matt has gone a bit far there but generally I think he's quite good as a chat show host

I feel so sad for Meredith's family.....to have to face what happened to her......and that the person/people responsible will probably never be caught and punished.

In respect of the Media coverage, here we have 2 people
Knox & Sollecito both convicted of the same crime, receiving the same sentence Knox 26yrs Sollecito 25yrs, freed by the same court on the same day, yet all the media coverage in the UK has been on Knox. I just find that a bit wrong! |

Some US citizens just don't like "heroes" and select them as "targets" .....

Yeah but she's gonna have so much money, she'll fade into the background after she sets herself up for life.

On a few levels really.
A. Isn't the Media suppose to be imparcial, so as to best deliver the truth. I mean Knox is a good looking chick is British Media doing a "C5 Big Brother Edit" and concentrating on delivering an "interesting" story rather than delivering us facts B. If the Italian Media was as bad how could the 2, actually yes Knox..... possibly get a fair trial in the first place given italian Juries are not required to be isolated from the Media and are allowed to watch anything they like.

People with "so much money" never "fade into the background" - they just want more money and more fame - after the media rights have been settled, Knox plans to set up an Amnesty International-style organisation fighting for wrongly convicted prisoners - that's hardly going 'low-profile' ..... no doubt she'll be 'hob-nobbing' with the likes of Annie Lennox, Elton John, Bono, Brad Pitt, Bill Clinton, Angelina Jolie, George Clooney and Scarlett Johansson .....

What about the barman who Amanda Knox unfairly accused of being involved? He went through hell and had his life turned upside down because of that woman. Turned out he was just a random bloke she dragged in to save her own skin. Whether she's innocent or not she's proven herself throughout the trial to be one hell of a compulsive liar. Something does not add up with her. To an extent I agree with this. With all these kinds of cases I always get the feeling (in this case the Italians) the country involved just think sod it, and don't give it their full attention because the people involved aren't natives.

On the few occasions I've watched the show, Matthew Wright irritates me beyond belief. At first it was his sense of humour and how he went on and on and on about a joke if he thought it was funny. But then I saw his petty and arrogant streak when he'd cut callers off the phone if he didn't agree with their opinion.
