Three Times Nope

The Court of Cassation rejected a defense request for the release of University of Washington student Amanda Knox of Seattle; her Italian ex-boyfriend Raffaele Sollecito and Ivory Coast national Rudy Hermann Guede.

“All three requests have been rejected,” said Marco Brusco, a lawyer for Sollecito.

The war in Italy is at the end of the day a PR war. Amanda has failed to win any sympathy in the country that has imprisoned her for a crime that is belted by a thick fog. Her PR there and here is not producing the desired results: outrage, fellow feeling, and freedom.

PR? Uh no, it's about guilty or not guilty, and apparently they think there is reason to believe she is guilty. Changing your story several times will do that to ya.

Something very, very dark is always just below the surface in those that wear wacky hats.
