I posted this on another site earlier today and decided since it's kinda slow here I'd post here. It's really long compared to what I have previously posted. Its just my opinion and why I think what I do.
Let me start by saying I am usually, almost always, pro-prosecution if the evidence presented is convincing. Secondly, I haven't really followed this case until the last couple of months so most of my opinions are based on the appeal/verification of the verdict that has been going on recently. I've tried to keep an open mind but a few things have convinced me that Amanda and RS were not present at the time of the murder.
Watching the video of the evidence collection combined with the evaluation of that evidence and collection process by the court appointed examiners has led me to disregard all evidence collected by ILE inside the apartment. Forensic evidence of Amanda inside the apartment alone wouldn't mean anything since she lived there. Normally I would lean towards LE collection and processing and not so much what the defense pays for but this evaluation was done by court appointed experts in the field of collection, processing and interpretation of dna. They had nothing to gain or lose no matter what they found/said. So I do value what they had to say. Someone commented how on the stand one admitted that something was possible. Well, anything is possible, the question should be is it probable. It's possible a UFO could land on the Eiffle tower, but is it probable? No, at least I doubt it.
The prosecution and guilters pound on Amanda's lies. I can understand that. But when the prosecution and witnesses also lie I don't hold much weight to what they say. Kettle calling the pot black as it were. It's one reason I am almost always pro prosecution. I've never seen one that lied so much.
The knife collected at RS's doesn't match the weapon mark found at the scene, and there was no blood found on it. It was supposedly cleaned well enough to remove the blood but not well enough to remove minute dna sample of the victems dna and bread starch. Can't have it both ways, sorry.
There really is no evidence that puts either Amanda or RS at the apartment the night of the murder, and I believe Rudy committed the crime alone.
I believe ILE and the prosecutor didn't like the way Amanda behaved, they were feeling pressure from the media and the public as soon as the murder became public knowledge to solve this horrible crime Amanda and RS became they're prime suspects from the beginning. Ego and pride refused to let any of them back off that initial assumption. Evidence collection techs looked like the key stone cops in the video, I was dumbstruck watching evidence collected without changing gloves. Passing around evidence with dirty gloves, including a hair on one. If they were that sloppy when the cameras were rolling, how sloppy were they when it wasn't.
A certain amount of character assasination is expected by the prosecuters in any court case, however there is generally evidence to back it up. The levels this proscecuter (and civil attorneys) went to without any evidence to back it up tells me more about them than it does about Amanda and RS.
Something in general that bugs me is that Amanda is supposedly such a good lover that she takes a virgin and in a week turns him into a sadistic homicidal rapist. Sorry, not buying that one either.
There is also no evidence that she is a witch, practises satanism, paganism, devil worship or BDSM (the whole dominatrix thing).
