Death in Perugia

since when did race figure into any of this? we should be thinking of the sad fact that the human race is capable of doing something so sick--and that all you people can talk about is whether or not race had anything to do with it. you're a bunch of racists.

It's interesting to see the comments posted here, based on one story in an American magazine, versus the reaction in other countries and the press coverage the story is receiving there. The only thing we know for certain is that Kercher died a horrible death. Meanwhile, I find it interesting how we sit around talking about how Sollecito looks creepy on his Facebook page (with photos that were probably taken for Halloween), or we want to conveniently blame an African immigrant (who has been said to be held in high regard by the local community), or the slutty American student (the old standby stereotype). Sollecito and Knox were only together for 2-3 weeks before this whole thing happened, so it would've been hard for her to dump him "before now" as one commenter suggested. I've been reading the coverage by at least three major Italian newspapers every day since it happened and so far, nothing makes sense.... Two things regarding this Newsweek article, though: first, the photo that was circulated showing a foot sticking out from under a duvet cover was a recreation, not an actual photo and, second, the photos I???ve seen of someone walking through a parking garage are anything but clear.

the human race is a crime...

Crime has no color..What is important is to investigate this fully and serve justice...No race is here to commit crimes...

Crime has no color....

"Comment: Funny how an american sees only the words "she was an american", and takes away from that that the author of this piece is coming down on all americans. And to the person in Seattle...same information for you. I read this with horror and disgust because of the act that these people allegedly did to that poor girl. It never occured to me that they were slagging americans. Just shows how arrogent and self centered you americans really are.

Perhaps out of the rest of the Nationalities mentioned, the Author should have left out the word American Kleo4 but it just so happens SHE WAS AMERICAN. Deal With it.


I fail to see how the author of the "piece" is coming down on anyone and is just writing an unbaised news story about a very tragic event.

This by no means should be a reflection on all Americans no more then your assertion Americans are all arrogant. Don't tell me it didn't occur to you they were slagging Americans when you sound like that is exactly what you'd like to see happen to ALL Americans Kleo4.

Your own hate and prejudice has blinded you and you seem to mis the point on this sad story in it's entirety. I think I speak for all Americans when I say we detest what happened in this story no matter who or where the victim was from.

Now, what was that you were saying about "arrogance"

sheesh.

Ultramedia, USA

One thing I have noticed, state the facts about reality and most people dont react ... talk BS and avoide reality and most people really get into the chat... ha

You are ALL killing me. Needed a break. Read these comments, could not stop laughing. Thank you.

This incident is a reminder of the vicious attack against this British native, to the O. J. Simpson attack against Nicole Braun Simpson and Ron Goldman. Kercher was almost decapitated and she was ever so innocent and didn't deserve this cruel attack and death. How obscene!!! It appears that the Italian investigators are really conducting this investigation with a high level of expertise. Kudos to the officials.

they all deserve what they get for playing naked games with a congolese monkey.

All of you are killing me. I needed a break and now I am rolling in laughter. Thank you for the entertainment.
