And on the FB of BBC News someone commented:

"Its clever she got engaged just 1 month before the US is supposed to send her back to Italy for 25 years. I bet this story will get her supporters behind her for sure. What a cheap publicity stunt just to use for her benefit."

ehmmmm...

So, Amanda Knox spent almost four years in prison before a second-level or appeal trial freed both her and Sollecito in October 2011. Then after she had returned to the US, the Italian Supreme Court ordered the appeal trial to be re-heard. She remained in the US. In January 2014, she was again found guilty, and sentenced to 28 years in prison. Both Knox and Sollecito remain free; in Italy a guilty verdict in a serious case is not regarded as a definitive conviction until the accused has exhausted the appeals process.

Wow! She has been found guilty and convicted twice, and yet remains free?

What does it mean ‘until the accused has exhausted the appeals process’?

I read a little on the case and don't believe she is guilty. What I can say is the police are no better over there than here, when it comes to not contaminating a crime scene!

So Franz, do you think justice was served?

If she were ugly it would be much easier to find her guilty.

But she is beautiful, which makes it easy to see her guilty.

I can see the mob now.....pitch forks in the air, flaming torches, migrating through the little village.

I would also be interested in your opinion on this case, Franz.
