Whatever the outcome of the criminal trial, it's clear that the focus on the real victim has already been lost in the lead-up to Italy's trial of the admittedly young century. Knox's infamy will only continue to grow as details from the trial make titillating headlines for the next year or longer. And Meredith Kercher will likely be only a small detail among those stories.

    To the people of the US and Italy,

    Have the people in Italy lost their minds? This trial is a joke!! The prosecutor Giuliano Mignini is the bigger conspiracy theorist I have even seen!!!! He follows to lunatic ravings of this lady named Gabriella Carlizzi who runs a baseless conspiracy theory website in Italy. I had my doubts in the Amanda Knox case but now that I saw that this was the goon prosecuting the case I know she is innocent. Giuliano Mignini is a complete joke. I would like to have him in America for a min so I could show him what justice is all about!!!

    Seriously, this prosecutor is the same one who "prosecuted??? the Monster of Florence case. Please go get the book by Douglas Preston and read what this moron Mignini did in that case. I cannot believe that the people of Italy continue to let this moron represent their country. I thought Italy was a civilized country but when you read and find out about this guys actions in the Monster of Florence case you will be asking yourself if Italy is not as bad and some third world country. I mean it is truly that unbelievable. This guy is a worthless thug, and should be put in jail himself!!

    I have been to Italy many times and I will never return! I tell everybody I know to STAY FAR AWAY!! I am dead serious. If this is the kind of people the Italian government lets runs their justice system, then you need to be afraid. Real afraid!!

    Stay away from Italy until they come back from the dark ages. Read the Monster of Florence book by Douglas Preston to find out about the craziest justice system in the modern world. It will terrify you to see what type of morons these guys really are!!


    Unbelievable!!
