Yikes confrontational. Ok.
I merely asked if you also grieved for the Kercher loss. Nothing confrontational about it, simply a question.

Drifterwood's opening post in his thread states the above which certainly does not appear to reflect your sentiments regarding Miss Knox.
Yoohoo- I didn't say his statements in the opening post were reflective of my thoughts. I merely pointed out an earlier thread on this topic. I thought perhaps keeping the entire Knox story in one thread would avoid the confusion which takes place when 3 or 4 threads go on about the same topic.

Yes I'm sorry for the Kercher's loss but the Kerchers are not the topic of discussion in my thread. Beyond that Rudy Guede was already tried and found guilty of the crime. The site of the murder was rife with his DNA. His blood smeared fingerprints were all over the walls of the crime scene.
The Kercher family
is part of the discussion as they are the ones who are seeking justice for their Meredith who was so savagely destroyed.
Stronzo said:
Where are you getting your info? There was no physical evidence tying either Knox or her then-boyfriend to the murder other than a fingerprint on a household knife that two forensic experts stated could not have been the murder weapon.
I get my information from various sources.
Say what? No physical evidence and then a fingerprint which you then say is not the murder weapon? Then why mention the print? Besides which any half baked killer knows to wipe down the scene and dispose of the weapon of choice. If Knox had but one print in a place where she spent a great amount of time, it becomes clear, things were cleaned up before the people began their survey of the place.

Again. I'm not speaking of the Kirchers. I'm appalled they were "satisfied with the verdict" since the trial was such a sham. I find it hard to rally great sympathy at this time for the Kirchers. But that's another discussion for another topic.
No respect for the K
Erecher family either; apparently, as you failed twice in one paragraph to correctly spell their name.
And be appalled all you want. Ms.Knox has been convicted and it will be a few years before she heads back into the courts if her appeal for a new trial is even granted. I was not appalled by how the Kirchers reacted, I was both surprised and touched and warmed the cockles of my heart, that they were willing to accept that Ms.Knox would only be sent away for 26 years when it could have been a much longer time according to Italian law.
The Kercher family also noted that there are no winners here- has anybody from the Knox side ever said that?
Stronzo said:
I'm only interested in what you have to say based on your own view and opinion you can back up with real hard evidence. Beyond that let's take the confrontational posturing down a notch or two shall we?
Thanks.
I'm not being confrontational, if you think I am, then that is your choice. I state my beliefs and often do so forcefully, perhaps it appears confrontational, it is not.
Stronzo said:
The Italian judicial system is as preposterous as the Italian government. Knox's conviction (and in Italy not necessary to be unanimous jury concensus) was a great big middle finger to the United States government. The entire thing's political.
If it is truly all political as you seem to think, then why aren't government officials from D.C. more involved? Why aren't they, haven't they, made negotiation pleas with Italy? Perhaps they've viewed the evidence and also believe Ms.Knox to be guilty.
At any rate, you feel the verdict was wrong, I, like so many, do not. Only Ms.Knox, others (if there were any) involved with the murder, the eternal soul of Meredith Kercher and God/Yahweh/Abba(The Father, not the band) or whatever you may call a divine leader know the truth. We mortals still wandering the Earth can only guess at what really happened.
