    British student murdered in Perugia, 3 suspects

    A second post-mortem will not be carried out on the body of murdered British student Meredith Kercher. Italian lawyers and experts decided there was enough information from the first post-mortem to establish the time and cause of death on 1 November. The decision, sent to lawyers concerned...

    British student murdered in Perugia, 3 suspects

    As far as i remember i think that was the Janet (or Janice) Chandler case wasnt it?? I agree i think this situation stemmed from AK's jealousy of Meredith. Im interested to hear what further information Sollecito has, but im less inclined to think he will try to help AK, i remember that he...

    Saudi girl sentenced to 200 lashes + jail sentence for being gang raped

    Thats very disappointing news, although im not particularly surprised. Im very sad for her, i think she is a very heroic person to have spoken to the media about her ordeal as a victim and subsequent punishment for being a victim particularly in view of the society she has to live in.

    Saudi girl sentenced to 200 lashes + jail sentence for being gang raped

    Excellent post cyber and brought up an excellent point. Its surprising how many women - mothers even that are often involved in the meting (sic?)out of the punishment. Unfortunately, this sort of treatment of women happens alot more than is reported, the D'ua Al kahlil and Banaz Mahmood (UK)...

    British student murdered in Perugia, 3 suspects

    My thoughts are with Merediths family....rest in peace Meredith... Three people are being questioned about the death of Briton Meredith Kercher who police suspect was murdered after a violent sexual attack. According to reports, all three had been at the house in Perugia, Italy, where Miss...

    How bad a mother does it take? European or American ideas?

    Considering the McCanns are not Swiss, i would say the point is moot anyway. The UK does not abide by Swiss Laws (unless its European law and ive never heard of it!), so let me guarantee you that in the UK, it is NOT normal practice to leave your children alone. Having lived in Greece...

    General discussion thread #14

    Hi SewingDeb! Im sure i saw it somewhere in one of the earlier threads, but i cant find it in all the links - they also tested the straw on the drink from the little girl in Belgium so they must have had a source for comparison quite early on, i checked the DNA thread but didnt see anything...

    Hi Edwards20 - sorry took me a while to answer....had to go searching....apparently, it depends on the reason for infertility, the process of ivf is combining the sperm and egg outside of the womb, so you can use a donor or not depending on why you need the ivf in the first place.... I found...

    General discussion thread #14

    Personally, i dont trust any media. I dont think it matters which country it comes from. I dont think Portuguese press are any better or worse than reports from UK, Dutch, US or anywhere else for that matter. Ofcourse, we can only go on what we have access to, which unfortunately are press...

    Where is Madeleine? Where is she?

    Theres some real possibilities here, i think the church yard/vaults definitely need to be checked out, very good idea calikid! Im also very interested in the cliffs and caves around the area - we discussed before and (i think) a portuguese poster had said that there were plenty of places there...
