Amanda Knoxx retrial

lolJason2.

Although there's no denying it's a great mystery. It really frustrates me as there seems to be a compelling case for both sides of the argument, and the thought of the authorities having made the wrong choice is almost too unbearable to think about.

They have an extradition treaty with the US although US Double Jeopardy laws may make this tough to enforce.

Not even the Italian Authorities think there is a realistic chance of Amanda Knox returning to Italy either for the trial or to serve any sentence should she be found guilty. The perception is that Italy will not even request her extradition to avoid a messy international incident and more international criticism and scrutiny on its judicial system, which is why this decision to retry has come as something as a surprise, not only to the defendants, but to Italians themselves.

It wasn't, Gary McKinnon is a recent example.

In his case he had serious mental issues and was extremely likely to top himself if sent over there. Which amounts to pretty much the same thing. If an extradition will result in the persons death etc.

He had very recently diagnosed Aspergers and clinical depression.

The problem with the McKinnion case is the one sided extradition treaty itself rather than his attempts to avoid answering for breaking US law.
 
She is quite hot.


If I were a betting man, I would probably put money on her being a liar. There is something psychologically 'off' about her, just the occasional smile or smirk has me thinking I've been duped, and that she has quite a hedonistic, cruel and immature outlook. I can't remember whether I've seen her crying either.

I'm no behavioural analyst however, so that could all be naivity and coping strategy for shock.


Absence of evidence is also not evidence of absence. The problems highlighted with the conduct of the police just smacks to me of clever and well paid lawyers trying to get someone off on a technicality too.

It's really not good to even speculate about such things. People cope with stress in a variety of ways. She could be cackling like a deranged bond villain, and I would still reserve judgement until the outcome of the trial.

Nah, I don't think there's any harm in me speculating. You make the exact same judgements in every interaction you have with another person. Otherwise you'd trust everyone you met.
 
based on the evidence i saw at the last trial she is no way guilty.
And i doubt the US would extradite to italian 'justice' - their legal system is a joke.

Thats why the justice system scares me. If you look the wrong way or dont behave how your peers expect then you could be screwed.

Thats basically why the real sociopaths usually get far, they can act like how other people expect.
 
Personally, I've always thought she's a bit of a physcopath. It's just the expression she gives off. Like it's all a game. I could be wrong, but my view is still valid.

I don't care what anyone says, she at least know something. I'm going at a step further to say she is the murderer. At no point during the trial did she protest her innocence. And everytime I saw her she look cold and detached.

Answer me this, why would an innocent person change their stories several times, and then try and pin the blame on a completely innocent person? Seems way too fishy to me.
