I have scoured the available information for irrefutable solid evidence that would allow one to conclude that Amanda Knox is guilty of the crimes for which she has now been found guilty. I am unable to find anything that I can declare concrete proof. What I have discovered is Mignini and a very active imagination. He should consider a new career in fiction writing. Maybe one day he will find the time to excercise his mental fabrications when he lands himself in a jail cell. Somehow he has a divine ability to know what words Amanda uttered to Meredith right before she stabbed her. Is there an audio recording that exists that I am unaware of? I mean really, this guy Mignini reeks of professional misconduct and has no business in the courtroom unless he is the one on trial. I want to voice one more thing, Meredith's inappropriate behavior in the days following the discovery of Meredith Kercher's body. Her display of cartwheels and handstands in the police department etc. I am reminded of a time when I was young and a teacher that I was very fond of died suddenly and unexpectedly (she suffered a heart attack). I told my parents that I wanted to attend her funeral. At the funeral home I walked up to where her body lay in the casket. My reaction was completely inconsistent with my emotions and to this day I still feel guilt when I think of that day. I laughed and giggled. I couldn't stop laughing. I had to run outside because I couldn't control myself. I felt terrible, embarrassed and confused. I felt like an awful human being and later cried about the event and my appalling behavior.
I believe it is very possible that a similiar scenario happened with Amanda. I believe she lacked the maturity and ability to cope emotionally with the horror and shock of discovering her roomate murdered. Inappropriate? Absolutely. Evidence that she is a murderer? Not a chance. At the time of the murder Amanda Knox was 22 years old, and from what I can gather, still very immature.
After all my readings on this case, the translated diaries, the court transcripts, the “evidence”, I am still uncertain of who is responsible for the heinous, cruel crime that tragically took the life of Meredith Kercher. I think it is clear that the Italian authorities botched the investigation and have made it impossible to determine concretely who killed Meredith Kercher using physical and scientific evidence. It is utterly wrong to send a young girl to jail for 26 years based purely on speculation, fairy tales, and her inappropriate reactions to a horrific event. Logically, the fact the she was performing cartwheels in the police station suggests her innocence more than it does her guilt. It doesn't compute that a person would brutally murder someone and then do cartwheels in the police station. That person would try to drum up a convincing performance of “playing the distraught, tearful, heartbroken friend, not doing cartwheels that would attract suspicion and land you in the electric chair. Do you see my point here? It is plain wrong to send a girl to jail because she may not live her life according to certain “proper” and acceptable social standards (although I fear that sex, drugs and amoral behavior are more the norm and quite acceptable in our world today). Many young single twenty- something girls have sex, experiment with drugs, and behave foolishly. You the reader may have fit that mold once upon a time too.
