A little DNA is all it takes IMO. I doubt they walked the streets with a knife dripping blood. There is evidence of a cleaning taking place in the bathroom in the cottage. I think the knife was at least rinsed.
The 'accurate clock' is the internet. I agree he should have been a little more specific about who checked it. Saying it is 'just hearsay' means he is lying? He is testifying under oath. Checking one clock and comparing it with another is a very simple thing to do. Why can't even the simplest...
It was proven that the CCTV was 10 minutes fast by a check with the internet time. You can't get any more accurate than that. This excludes the possibility that Meredith was on the CCTV images. This was mostly likely Knox arriving at the cottage IMO. I don't think the guy walking in the parking...
*Snipped*. Why not reason the other way around? Meredith's DNA on the knife proves that the knife was at the cottage and most likely involved in the murder. Of course, this is ridiculous. The whole murder is ridiculous. I don't understand this kind of reasoning where evidence is simply dismissed...
She guessed she heard such a loud scream that she had to cover her ears. She guessed a black guy was involved. She guessed RS had blood on his hands. She guessed she was in the cottage during the murder. All because the police was asking her why she lied about replying to a text from her boss...
The police is not the prosecution, and I take anything that comes from the Daily Mail with a grain of salt. Oh so now it is an open question? It was stated as fact that the medical staff was lying to her for some reason.
I doubt the Caribinieri decides what is admissible in an Italian court. They only talked about the testing of a new trace on the knife, and were not allowed to comment on any other testing on the knife.
Most of this is false. Any lawyer could have leaked that bathroom photo, AK did test positive for HIV and the meaning of that test was explained to her, the police has nothing to do with 'foxy knoxy'. There is a lot of that stuff that is just made up or misreported in the media. Sex orgy...
Judge also said that this analysis has nothing to do with the earlier testing of the knife. There is no 'rule' that a single test should be excluded. It is up to them of course to accept or exclude it, but it is not new that a double test is better than a single test. There was a reason for that...
Seems like they need a bit more time for the closing arguments than I had expected.
Nov 25 - closing arguments prosecution
Nov 26 - closing arguments civil
Dec 16 - closing arguments Sollectio
Dec 17 - closing arguments Knox
Jan 9 - rebuttals
Jan 10 - deliberation and verdict
Whoever expressed the idea that Meredith's DNA would be in this new trace? Certainly not the prosecution. It is only the defense who are trying to spin this test to deny there ever was Meredith's DNA at the tip of the knife. It is basically still the same old argument that failed in the first...
Well 'tiny' is a relative term. I just meant that usually you don't see touch DNA. For blood it is of course different.
I never understood how the 'improper handling' and 'late' (what does it matter if it is left behind locked doors?) collection of the bra clasp inside the bedroom, is...
DNA spots are usually tiny :) The reasoning the previous court upheld was that 'anything is possible' and therefore the DNA evidence didn't really count. That was rejected by the SC. Just to say 'something' could have happened doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me. It needs to be more...
Exactly, newspapers are merely reflecting the position of the defense lawyers since they are the ones that are talking. The judges will decide and although the C&V report is still part of the case, the conclusions from the Hellmann court were invalid. The SC gave some guidelines...
This link contains a picture of that trace that was tested. It was stored in a bag in a freezer. They never even touched the knife.

I don't see how different sides indicate that there is something wrong with the evidence or investigation. Especially when there is such a misleading PR campaign at work. Just an example is the current testing of a new trace on the knife. Reported as no trace of Meredith's DNA on the knife...
