if she's not guilty of killing her roommate, she should be freed. she's been held long enough without charges.

"She needs a fair trial and a proper accusation before being in jail." Having charges been filed?

Why is all that crap so expensive? Are the proceeds going to Knoxy's legal defense, or is someone just trying to profit from her misadventures?

Either way, the Free Amanda beer stein is totally calling my name.

Why are they for sale? Shouldn't everyone get one and have the government pick up the tab?

Save the trucker hat for me!

Keep up the great coverage of the story too. It may be the subject of your next movie unless the made-for-TV rights have already been taken.

But what if you're freeing a murderer? And yes, she has been charged with murder, among many many other formal charges. According to Newsweek: "They were also charged with sexual assault, which carries a sentence of 6 to 12 years, and with theft�punishable by a prison sentence of 1 to 6 years. In addition, Knox and Sollecito face charges for the "simulation of a crime", for which they face one to three years incarceration, and for the "detention and transportation of a weapon" which carries a sentence of 1 to 12 months. Additionally, Knox has been charged with slander for her allegedly false accusation against a nightclub owner called Patrick Lumumba�a crime that carries a sentence of 6 to 20 years."

I think she's guilty. What do I base that on? The same thing Charles bases her innocence on... her looks.

I am astonished at the arrogance Americans have displayed in this case. Italy is not a 3rd world country, run by a junta & kangaroo courts. They have an established legal system and law enforcement. We should let their courts decide who is a criminal in Italy and who is not.

We gripe when some other country wants us to just give up some known murderer, saying they are "meddling". What are we doing in Knox's case? Meddling in stuff we know nothing about.

Good job Mudede.

So when's the Mudede/Knox double suicide taking place?

Wow, Charles. I'm starting to think you might have a creepy-ass, stalkerish interest in this girl.
