Amanda Knox is having a new trial. If you are among those who believe she's guilty, you must also believe that an attractive young American student (shown here) with a handsome young Italian boyfriend and a wonderfully supportive family chose to murder her flatmate in Perugia, Italy, when said flatmate refused to engage in an orgy with a local loser. Yes, that seems like a good reason to toss your entire life away. The fact that the flamboyant and highly imaginative prosecutor has himself been accused of trying to railroad other persons shown to be innocent into prison adds to the absurdity. My belief, shared by many, is that Amanda Knox is innocent and that the true and sole murderer is Rudy Hermann Guede (shown here) who is now in prison. Interestingly despite his confession, he received a lighter sentence than Amanda and her boyfriend. Today I posted several comments on the Internet expressing my belief in this girl's innocence. While many agree, I was surprised at the vitriolic responses of those who didn't. What was most shocking to me was not that they believe she is guilty, but they seemed so desperately to want her to be guilty and truly gleeful that she may spend her life in prison.
