She's a sociopath for sure. There's something way wrong with her that youth and nativity don't account for. I wouldn't want her living next door.

After 15 months in prison, American co-ed Amanda Knox finally got a chance to speak in an open courtroom in Perugia, Italy, last weekend as journalists, the jury and her father looked on. Knox, together with her Italian ex-boyfriend Raffaele Sollecito, are standing trial for the murder and sexual assault of Meredith Kercher in November 2007. (Article continued below...)

On Friday, Knox listened to several hours of testimony from Kercher's friends before speaking herself, as is her right at any point in the trial under the Italian judiciary system.
Amy Frost, one of three girls with whom Kercher, a British citizen, spent her last night, repeated stories that Kercher had allegedly told them. "Amanda would play the guitar, but she would play the same chord over and over again," Frost recalled.
Another friend, Robyn Butterworth talked about how their friend Meredith felt awkward because Knox didn't flush the toilet. All of the girls recalled Meredith talking about how Knox brought strange men home and how she kept in the bathroom a transparent tote bag with condoms and a pink vibrator shaped like a rabbit.
When Knox spoke, she addressed the witnesses' testimony, including the odd detail about a vibrator. "It exists," she said with a giggle, speaking in impeccable Italian. "It was a joke. It's a little pink rabbit and it was given to me by a friend as a joke."
