just because someone is acquitted,it does not make them innocent.i personally think she had a big involvement but the Italian courts have ruled otherwise,so ill accept that.
I wonder how many people saying she is clearly and obviously innocent were saying the same about OJ?not many i imagine.
I just watched the speech she gave outside her home. Her manner was that of an actress doing one of those OTT award acceptance speeches. The matter of her innocence to one side, there's just something about her that seems unauthentic.
So how exactly should she have reacted ?
She'd just found out she'd been fully exonerated for a crime she didn't commit and that the case that had been hanging over her head for nearly a decade was finally over.
Do you not think that news would have been somewhat overwhelming ?
If she'd stood in front of the press and been calm and dispassionate, people would have claimed she was a sociopath or that she was a cold hearted killer, or words to that effect.
She stands in front of the world's media and tries to keep her composure and she's apparently "acting".
So again, how should she have reacted that would have been acceptable ?
If she'd stood in front of the press and been calm and dispassionate, people would have claimed she was a sociopath or that she was a cold hearted killer, or words to that effect.
Indeed. It seems that those who have convinced themselves she is guilty will interpret her demeanour and body language in whichever way helps support their prejudice.

It makes them completely innocent. even more so in this case since the original conviction was annulled which completely exonerated her.
In the courts eyes yes,in reality.who knows?
If i walk out of my house,murder 6 people,get arrested/charged...eventually acquitted......am i innocent?

I'm not going to say how she should have reacted, because everyone's different. I'm just saying the way she behaves seems unauthentic to me.
It's often hard to tell what's 'authentic' or not. There have been people on TV who garnered a lot of sympathy and turned out to be liars. We know that Knox wasn't renowned for her social skills.
I'm so glad she is finally acquitted because the evidence wasn't there, and Guede is such a disturbed person, there wasn't need to look further.

If you walk out of your house, DON'T murder 6 people yet get sentenced to 24 years inside anyway, would that make you guilty? Would you take that with a shrug of the shoulders and a 'hey-ho, these things happen' as you are spat on and beaten up by your new chums in jail?

If they had enough evidence - which, given how clear cut they claimed the case was from day one, shouldn't have been a problem - then she'd be in prison.
Finally sanity ruled in this case. The only thing that still sickens me is that Rudy Guede got such a light sentence for raping and murdering Meredith Kercher.
Just something about her behaviour seems off to me. It's hard to describe exactly. I feel like her emotional displays are insincere.
I don't know if she's a murderer or not. The Italian courts don't seem to think so.
I don't recall saying there was a problem with anything
You seem to be implying that her behaviour suggests guilt, which can tick people off given that she has just been summarily acquitted. It's reminiscent of the 'no smoke without fire' arguments so often trotted out, and which are universally bollocks.
If I've misunderstood, please accept my sincere apologies.

.
She can react however she likes really. She has always claimed to be innocent and has now been proved innocent. I don't think she should be expected to be sad, euphoric, remorseful, whatever etc.
And she shouldn't be expected to show feelings of any kind to to the Kercher family seeing as she had nothing to do with Meredith's murder. Of course it would be sensible of her to express sadness for them and I believe that she has but she can stop now.

I have no doubt that she will kill again. My many years of reading lurid magazines have taught me to recognise the cold dead eyes of a serial killer. I said the same about Barry George and Christopher Jeffries.

I'm sorry if I upset you.
Umm, not really, no. She has always seemed that way to me.
I wonder how many people saying she is clearly and obviously innocent were saying the same about OJ?not many i imagine.
What do you think the nature of this deal might be then? In your answer, bear in mind that Sollecito was also exonerated.
I despair at the Investigation and Italian legal system.
I feel for Meredith's family.

Except karma is bollocks and does not exist.

I'm not sure why some people have to be so pompous about it, tbh.

Sums it up perfectly.
That's just too ridiculous for words.
They seem
We will never know the truth...{IMO, of course....before the Pro - Knox brigade jump down my throat ;-) }

Yes. You are.
I'm too old to jump anywhere
We already do know the truth. The real killer was tried and convicted of the crime and is currently serving time for it.
Could you explain what you mean by 'unauthentic' more clearly? Do you think she's a liar and murderer? Because if not, I can't see a problem here.
That's the most ridiculous thing Ive ever read.

No?
Didn't think so.

You have, and no worries.
