My mind-reading skills are down today.

Crystal ball yields no results.

Don't feel like googling it.

Background?

I paid little attention to this, but I did see a recent interview with Knox. My gut feeling was that she is guilty.

OK, thanks for the link.

she had a publicity machine that was pretty good. i thinks shes not only guilty but she tried to hang it on her boss . he was lucky he could prove his innocence. and she admits to wrongfully naming him"cause she was scared"

Zero extradition. U.S. won't on any grounds or trials that are unconstitutional. This one being simple double-jeopardy.

I feel bad for Kercher's family, but frankly, the kangaroo court third world freakshow that is "Italian Justice", the alternately three stooges then abusive police, and incompetent amateur-hour mistakes in basic scientific procedure and chain of custody in evidence by the forensics people is the much larger issue now. Italy's criminal justice system is an embarrassment to Italy, Europe, and Western Civ in general.

Even if she did do it, Italy essentially went to court with what amounts to a frame job to convict her.

I wouldn't turn *expletive deleted*ing Charles Manson over to them.

This is the same Italy that convicted a scientist because he failed to predict an earthquake-

The Italian court system is weird, even by US standards.

What he said.

She could be guilty as sin or innocent as a bird, I really don't care.
The soap opera aspect is as annoying as hell and the Italian court is koo koo for co co puffs.
Hell, actual soap opera's are better scripted, researched and acted out, which is really saying something.

Thank you! I was trying to remember that one.

Any bets on Obama's "justice" dept. finding a way to give her to Italy?

Only if she becomes a conservative activist... and somehow I doubt that happening.

Her biggest cheerleader has been the American media. As the American media is rarely ever right on anything, my first notion was that she must be guilty.

Bummer.

I thought she was kinda cute.

That's Anna Chapman. Russian Spy.

Not Amanda Knox, convicted (by a kangaroo court!) murderess.

This is Amanda Knox

Great. Now the local news will be all Amanda Knox all the time for 2 weeks.

Since Amanda lives here in Seattle, suffice it to say that her story has gotten media coverage here up the wazoo for years. The State Department has a pretty defined process for considering requests for extradition. We have had a mutual extradition treaty with Italy for decades. If the Italians want her back, and we ever want to ask Italy to send a criminal convicted in American courts back, that is something that State takes into consideration: not just that case, but potential future cases. The only real exception is that Italy, along with many other First World nations, will not extradite someone who faces the death penalty back in the country that wants them.

As for all the media attention, I think this is another case of cute middle class white girl rallies the troops to fight for her rights in a foreign land. Italy has had a well-functioning court system for centuries before the USA did, and there are many aspects of the American justice system as practiced throughout the country that I would have a hard time defending to foreigners.
