Okay, first I apologize that I've hardly been here, just been really busy. But did anyone watch the Amanda Knox Movie last night?? I wanna talk about it! Here is what I think:
I think the movie made her seem guilty but the show "Beyond the Headlines" that came on afterwrads made her seem innocent.
There was a retired FBI agent whose wife made him look into it further just to prove his wife wrong (wife thought she was innocent, agent thought she was guilty) as he looked further into it he concluded that both Amanda and Rafaella had nothing to do with the case.
Some of his comments were that the knife didn't fit the physically wound on Meredith's neck. The DNA sample that they got was so low that it should've have been admissible. The DNA could only be tested once which means during that testing it could have been contaminated... numerous things could have happened. It also isn't conclusive because it was so low you're basically saying we have DNA of a female who has blue eyes and brown hair which could be anyone. Having a higher amount of DNA allows you to pin point it to an individual.
The agent also said that there was no way that Amanda and Raefella could have selectively cleaned up their mess. (no DNA was found of theirs in the room except for Rudy, the 3rd guy). Also Raefella's DNA was on Meredith's bra clasp was really low and they didn't collect until 6 weeks later.
I also think that just because their behavior wasn't "normal" (aka they weren't mourning) doesn't mean they are guilty. People react differently to situations.
I don't know if she's guilty or innocent, I just don't think she got a fair trial. Those were my 2 cents
Re: Amanda Knox Movie
I saw the movie (recorded on DVR) but I only saw a part of the Beyond the Headlines one. I got mixed feeling from the movie, and want to see the Beyond the Headlines show.
They did say that they didn't find Amanda's or Rafaella's DNA at the crime scene. I found that odd. As bloody as the crime scene was, you would think there would be some speck of evidence?
Then the Rudy guy confessed to killing her and said that the other two weren't involved. I don't know, but I need to do more research before I come to my decision on guilt or innocence.
I recorded it and beyond the headlines on DVR and am going to watch it tonight. I was watching the bachelor instead. haha
I didn't watch it...no cable. But I've been hearing a lot about the movie and whatnot on the E board and also on MSN and Yahoo.
for anyone who is interested I found this website that has articles written by Steve Moore who is an ex-FBI agent and why he believes she's innocent.
