Knox Escapes
Amanda Knox was in court in Perugia today, protesting her innocence over the killing of Meredith Kercher. She was in tears, speaking in fluent Italian.
Verdict?
Sexy
And so Foxy Knoxy walks free from an Italian court having been acquitted of murdering the person she now seems not to have murdered. TheEye reckons it is now a One-All score draw and is waiting for the penalty shoot-out. But for now, for legal reasons, we have to pretend to believe her.
This year’s winner of ‘I’m A Celebrity, Get Me Out Of Here’,
She was found guilty (again) of being a liar and still nobody knows what she was really doing that night – she claims not to remember. Alcohol is her defence, rather than blood-splattered convenient amnesia.
She accused somebody else falsely of stabby things and was found to have slandered him. That’ll now cost her a few Euros, but to be honest she only has to hold on for a few weeks until the Greek (and Eurozone) economy is carried out in a bucket and the Euro will be worth less than tissue paper.
The fact is that if she wasn’t so damn attractive, nobody would ever have noticed or cared. The thought of her in handcuffs is, basically, not too shabby at all as an image.
This story will run and run. Half of the space in tomorrows Dead Tree Press will be dedicated to the trial because the Eyeties cunningly delivered the verdict in good time for the first editions. It will also take the Conservative Party conference off the national headlines which may not be such a bad thing. And it will be covered elsewhere at such enormous length that TheEye isn’t going to bother raking over the evidence of her complicity here.
Within the hour she will be on a plane to the US and beyond the feeble extradition arrangements with the Italians …. which is ignored and not respected. The appeals process will be pointless.
She might be ‘innocent’ now, but she’ll never get another flatmate….
Knox, Knox…
“Who’s there?…”
“It’s Amanda. They believed me…let me out!”
I honestly have no idea who this person is, one of the blessings of turning off the TV.
She’ll end up starting in the film – she’s such a good actress.
I’m happy she is FREE, it was that psycho looking african guy who did it (not obumbles), I’m serious, that drifter they also nabbed! Hurray for Amanda!
I have no dog in this fight but wish the press on both sides of the Atlantic would give more attention to the victim Meredith Kercher and her family.
The American press did the same last week (and for years actually) in a death penalty case focusing all on the murderer and little to nothing on his victim or his family let alone the relevant evidence for which he was convicted in the first place.
Knox being an American makes no difference to me in cases such as this but I pray the Italians got it right because if it is wrong someone else down the road will certainly die. The latter scenario is bound to play out in the recent Casey Anthony case in Florida and the jurors in that case will have to live with that.
I also wish my sincerest condolences to the Kercher family and pray that they may find peace,,,one day.
Miss Knox is entirely innocent of everything and extremely unattractive — not that that has anything whatsoever to do with anything at all.
The cardiovascular healing properties of red wine have told me this.
So it is true.
I’ve been bored with this story ever since it appeared; just another humdrim murder between dropouts.
I’ve not bought a paper since the verdict and have avoided clicking on any related link on line (except yours Mr Eye)
