As if the Amanda Knox case could not get any more bizarre,
Raffaele Sollecito has upped the ante. In a recent exclusive interview on an Italian
TV news broadcast, Sollecito said he has several “unanswered questions” for his
former girlfriend, Amanda Knox. This adds yet another waiver to the many different versions Sollecito
provided over the years about the same details. In the official story, the part
that remained consistent, at least, Knox and Sollecito both claimed that Knox
left his flat the morning after Kercher’s murder and returned home, where she
noticed the door left wide open and witnessed blood spots in the bathroom. Knox
claimed that she found it odd and just assumed that one of her roommates was menstruating
and left blood behind. She proceeded to take a shower and returned to Sollecito’s
flat and ate breakfast.

Craigslist Killer, Miranda Barbour, says she “stopped counting after 22 victims”
Miranda Barbour, 19, shocked the world on Valentine’s Day (2014) when she claimed she committed between 22 and 100 murders over a six-year time span covering five different States as part of a satanic cult. Dubbed the “Craigslist Killer,” the Pennsylvania teen is accused of killing Troy LaFerrara, 42, of Port Trevorton after she met him on Craigslist. Miranda said she met LaFerrara on Craigslist and agreed to have sex with him for $100 in November (2013). They met in the parking lot of the Susquehanna Valley Mall in Hummels Wharf, and drove nearly six miles to Sunbury. She said she planned to let LaFerrara out of her Honda CRV but “he said the wrong things.” Barbour said she told LaFerrara that she had just turned sixteen-years-old. “He told me that ‘it was OK.’ If he would have said no, that he wasn’t going to go through with the arrangement, I would have let him go.” Laferrara was killed on November 11, 2013, and his body was found in the backyard of a home in Sunbury on November 12th.

Simpson and Ronald Goldman. It was the trial that Lawyer Jonnie Cochran coined
the phrase, “If the glove don’t fit, you must acquit.”

Amanda Knox’s Conviction is Upheld
After a long wait the Italian Supreme Court’s verdict
in the Amanda Knox, Raffaele Sollecito case was finally revealed on Thursday:
guilty. The judges in Florence overruled her
previous acquittal and sentence her to 28 years and 6 months in prison, while Knox’s
ex-boyfriend, Raffaele Sollecito, was also found guilty and given 25 years in
jail. But their lawyers vowed to appeal to Italy’s highest court—a process that
will take at least a year and drag out this legal saga even further.
