Crime The Amanda Knox Documentary Is Very Kind to Seattle's Appearance
Posted by Charles Mudede on Tue, Nov 24, 2009 at 11:52 AM
Here it is, LA7's documentary on the Amanda Knox/Meredith Kercher story...
LA7, which is "considered to be the third major network in Italy," filmed the Seattle section during our sunny summer. The soundtrack for Seattle is packed with American rock (for example, Jimi Hendrix's "Foxy Lady" is played on Amanda's image—no subtly there), and the city seems big and very busy. (Yes, I'm in the documentary, but so is Paul Constant's back and the left side of Kelly O's seated body.)

I love it when they play Hendrix in association with Seattle, a city he left for good in 1961 when he was nineteen.

Fnarf: Yeah, they're dumb. Why are they even linking Amanda Knox to Seattle? She left for good when she was 19 too.

@4, A lot of the Hendrix family still lives here. I wonder if they are still battling over his estate.

#7: excellent! Let's get a local medium-grade DJ from the War room to get on that!

I wish Amanda the best. No way did she do it. The Italian court is a travesty.
Thanks for the link, Charles. Your Italian is pretty good!

when the fuck are they going to finish the fucking trial? they've robbed this girl of 2 years of her life on catholic paranoia.

Nicely shot and edited long-form piece. But Jimi Hendrix and The Doors? And hey Charles, you're not just a journalist, you're a Giornalista!

I hear they associate Seattle with that guy who blew his brains out with a shotgun too.
He wasn't too old either.

9 - OJ was innocent. I'm sure after Amanda is acquitted she'll help find the "real killers". After all the DNA evidence, a faked break-in, false accusations against a black man, lying about her alibi, and changing stories.... she's innocent!

10 - Amanda took away the rest of Merideth's life. In about 30 years the angel of death will be able to continue living hers.

Meredith Kercher was robbed of all of the years of her life. I'd like to to see the text messages produced in court that defense lawyers claim that Amanda and Meredith swapped in the weeks leading up to the murder. Edda Mellas' claims that Amanda and Meredith were good friends while the Italian women who also shared the house in Perugia with two students claim that Amanda and Meredith's relationship had deteriorated in October, with Meredith opting to hang out more with her English friends while Amanda started bringing home Perugian lowlifes.

I haven't followed this trial completely, however, what I can say is this: Every time I saw this woman walking to and from court, to and from jail, etc., she had this smirk/smile on her face; was laughing and/or joking with someone, etc. It would seem to me that someone falsly accused of a heinous murder would behave in quite an opposite way. I don't want to believe this young woman killed another woman, however, something just doesn't seem right. What am I missing?
