Cont: The Trials of Amanda Knox and Raffaele Sollecito: Part 32

View attachment 65338

Nothing but a failed attempt to divert attention from the fact that you cannot provide a single example of your claimed Knox "even demonstrates Kercher's scream by placing her hands over her ears whenever she talks about it." Nor can you dispute that not a single court, including Massei and Nencini, found that Knox was referring to anywhere but Sollecito's apartment when she said "I was there. I can't lie about this".
You haven't the imagination to realise Knox did knife Mez in the neck, as did Sollecito tortured Mez with his numerous knife flicks and ripping off her bra. Keep frantically trying to think of 'alternative explanations' because you will never be given live CCTV footage of the incident.
 
Ah, there it is! The "bent judges and mafia reference" rubbish again. What? No Trump and Clinton interference accusations? You're slipping.
BTW, I was being generous when I said 'imagination'. 'Unreality' is more accurate.
Well, Bill Clinton appears to be your role model when he famously and consistently averred, ""I did not have sexual relations with that woman, Miss Lewinsky," Like yourself, he really seemed to believe that if he kept saying it then it somehow became true! Knox believes if she keeps saying, "I did not kill Meredith," it becomes a magic mantra that converts history into a new reality if enough people swallow the deception. Clinton also used to claim he never inhaled. Think hard as to whether sensible people believed his nonsense. Don't be like Trump or Clinton; just tell it like it is.
 
As the appellate courts in Italy are trial de novo, Hellmann would also be considered a fact finding trial, and they completely disagreed with the 'facts' as outlined by Massei.

Nearly 60% of all major crime verdicts from the first instance are reformed in the second instance court. So like the majority of cases, Massei was reformed by Hellmann, which not only looked at all the evidence again, but also allowed independent experts to review the DNA work performed by Stefanoni, which exposed a plethora of mistakes, omissions and lies by her.

I would disagree that the 'facts' found at the first instance trial remain proven. Quite a few were proven false, and that doesn't even begin to touch on the speculation and assumptions so heavily embraced by Massei and the pro-guilt community. But not to worry, most everyone has learned this, so there may still be hope for you, though after 18 years the odds seem to be shrinking.
Hellman was laughed out of court by his contemporaries.
 
They were acquitted on a 'technicality' dreamt up by a couple of rogue judges spoonfed by mafia-friend Bongiorno. The facts found at the fact-finding trial, which was lengthy and fair and a level playing field, remain proven.

BTW Einstein said true intelligence was having imagination, not knowledge. So thanks for the (unintended) compliment.
Your statement that they (Knox and Sollecito) were acquitted (of the murder/rape charges) on a "technicality" is ambiguous, because you have not defined what you mean by a "technicality". I suggest you consult a dictionary (for example, the Britannica) to find out the generally used meanings of the terms "technical" and "technicality". I further suggest you then consult a discussion of the term "legal technicality" in Wikipedia. The following quote is from the Wikipedia article (superscript citation numbers omitted; italic bolding added for emphasis).

The term legal technicality is a casual or colloquial phrase referring to a technical aspect of law. The phrase is not a term of art in the law; it has no exact meaning, nor does it have a legal definition. In public perception, it typically refers to "procedural rules that can dictate the outcome of a case without having anything to do with the merits of that case." However, as a vague term, the definition of a technicality varies from person to person, and it is often simply used to denote any portion of the law that interferes with the outcome desired by the user of the term.

In objective fact, Knox and Sollecito were acquitted on the merits; there was no reliable, credible evidence of their guilt. Thus, they could not lawfully be found guilty, because a guilty verdict in Italy by law must be supported by proof beyond a reasonable doubt (CPP Article 533). When there is no such proof, the accused must be acquitted according to Italian law (CPP Article 530).

Your reference to a quote by Albert Einstein was incomplete and thus somewhat a distortion. According to one source, he included curiosity as one of his traits. I suggest that the intelligent person, such as Einstein, couples imagination, knowledge of empirical reality, and curiosity. He would not have been able to formulate his revolutionary theories without a firm foundation in the known physical science of his time.

“The true sign of intelligence is not knowledge but imagination. I have no special talent. I am only passionately curious.”​

This statement underlines the point I was making. Think hard about your need to call a simple acquittal 'an exoneration'. Either you are fooling yourself or trying to deceive others. Or both. Or you believe stating a lie makes it magically true. In which case, you consider your readers stupid, which still doesn't reflect well on you.
It appears I do have to provide this again:

"How does absolution work for not committing the fact?

The acquittal for not having committed the fact is pronounced by the judge whenever the crime has been committed, but not by the accused.

This is the case, for example, of the classic "exchange of persons", in which one subject is wrongly accused instead of another.

In conclusion: the acquittal for not having committed the fact completely exonerates the accused, who has nothing to do with the crime being tried.

Precisely because this type of absolution enshrines the total innocence of the accused from all guilt, it is said that it falls within the hypothesis of "absolution with full formula". "


Therefore, under Italian law, Knox and Sollecito were found to be legally "innocent/exonerated", not just "not guilty".
Now, if you'd like to present your credentials in Italian law and evidence the above Italian lawyer* who wrote it is wrong, please do so.

Unlike you, I don't base my opinion on 'imagination' or 'alternative explanations': I base my opinion on the forensic science, expert opinion, testimonies, and logic. You should try it.

LOL! I've never brought up Bill Clinton in regard to this case. I was referring to the usual PGP lie that Sec. of State Hillary Clinton somehow forced Italy to overturn Knox's 2011 acquittal. But, you know that. Bringing up Bill Clinton is just a silly and obvious red herring.

Speaking of Trump, you're the one who keeps dragging him into this case as if his donating to her defense fund is evidence of....something.

Vixen seems to think the prosecution failing to prove guilt BARD is a "technicality". Maybe Finnish law is different? Oh, wait...no, it's not:

"In criminal cases, the prosecution bears the burden of proof. The standard is beyond reasonable doubt (ei jää varteenotettavaa epäilystä).

Er, so how come you seem oblivious to Knox' DNA on the murder knife with MK's DNA on the blade, a knife Sollecito himself said she carried in her bag from his apartment, together with HIS DNA firmly implanted on the bra clasp, inner side of the hook.

Go on, perform convoluted acrobatics as to how the DNA flew in from under the LOCKED* door when your hero feebly tried to force it open**.

*We know only one person present that night would have had the key to lock it.

**Most likely, he tried to force it open when the pair realised they had left AMANDA KNOX' lamp on the floor next to Mez' bed.

A poster said I had imagination, unwittingly handing me a compliment and admitting envy of it. The technicality is that the whole thing was declared an acquittal owing to 'insufficient evidence' because Bruno - Marasca allowed themselves to be browbeaten by Bongiorno waving a lenghty paper written by third party academic Peter Gill, using notes from Conti-Vecchiotti, a weirdo friend of the guilty with a wet belief in USA innocent Project campaigners.

As for Einstein, he could see clearly that the speed of light was relative to where one is standing.

No, you continuously lie about the situation and you have been proven wrong time and again (as Stacyhs has done so again). You very, very rarely admit to the simplest of errors, so I have no expectation that you will admit you are wrong if in the face of Stacyhs' cite.

Face the facts, you are the only one in this thread who constantly lies about things around this case. All you are doing now is another fringe reset to continue peddling your lies.

Read the court papers for yourself instead of soaking up propaganda.
 
Look at the footprint on the bathmat.
We have, repeatedly, and again just recently. Fringe resets are yet another play from the guilter/CT/woo playbook. Also, what part of "I'm qualified to evaluate the work of the prosecution's 'experts', and you're not," was unclear?

The one size 42 with a hammer toe...just like...well, you figure it out.
Do you think that continually repeating these lies will somehow make them true? It's obvious from Vinci's CrimeScope photo that the first and second toe prints are touching, a fact which the prosecution's 'experts' failed to notice, presumably due to their only working with visible-light photographs of the bathmat, rather than the actual mat itself enhanced under infrared light. This caused them to mismeasure the width of the big toe and wrongly to assert that only four toe prints were visible. Because this is so obvious from the CrimeScope photo, you and other guilters are forced to lie and claim that Vinci was reprimanded/accused of using Photoshop, despite the fact that you have no evidence of this. So why did you lie about it?

Further, when I asked you to account for the obvious large discrepancies between the bathmat print and Raffaele's reference print, your ridiculous excuse was that the cotton thread pile pattern would have somehow acted as a hard surface and prevented part of the foot from contacting the mat and imprinting it with diluted blood. When I pointed out the absurdity of this, you fell back to your go-to defense, namely, parroting the first-instance court's ruling on the matter, as if that were some sort of infallible holy writ, even though that ruling is clearly erroneous.

There are at least two false statements in your post quoted above. The false statements are apparently the result (or associated with) exercises of imagination uncoupled from any knowledge of reality. It's your apparent lack of knowledge, together with your failure to investigate (perhaps due to a lack of curiosity or desire) the known facts in adequate detail, that leads to the absurd failures - that is, lack of correspondence to reality - of your imagined scenarios. Here are brief comments giving the realities:

1. The Marasca CSC panel verdict, as stated in its MR, found that there was no credible, reliable evidence of Knox and Sollecito being guilty of the murder/rape of Kercher. It found that the failures of the investigators including the scientific police to follow the standards of a reliable investigation in evidence collection and testing of evidence, including the critical DNA evidence, meant that the prosecution's alleged critical evidence was totally unreliable and thus not credible. The Marasca CSC panel apparently relied upon the report (not merely notes) of the court-appointed experts, Conti and Vecchiotti. Your allegations of impropiety by the Marasca CSC panel lacks is not supported by any credible evidence; your imagination (or that of Guilter partisans) cannot replace reliable evidence.
:
2. Your statement that "Einstein, he could clearly see that the speed of light was relative to where one is standing" is also an absurdly false statement. It does demonstrate that you have imagined incorrectly some principle of science, found from empirical evidence and sound logic, apparently the result of a failure to sufficiently investigate or to comprehend facts and ideas. Rather than diverting the thread, I refer the interested reader to these Wikipedia articles:



 
Er, so how come you seem oblivious to Knox' DNA on the murder knife with MK's DNA on the blade,
Er, so how come you ignore the report that found MK's DNA on the blade was "scientifically unreliable" and that Knox's DNA on a knife she used to cook with is completely normal? Or do you think your DNA isn't highly likely to be on your own kitchen cutlery? Are you of the opinion that DNA is only left during the commission of a crime?
a knife Sollecito himself said she carried in her bag from his apartment,
Quote and cite where he does so. If you can't, then I'll consign it to the assfact bin.
together with HIS DNA firmly implanted on the bra clasp, inner side of the hook.
You mean the one the SC found to most likely by from contamination due to the sloppy work of the police and the fact it had the DNA of other men on it? How did that get there, Vixen? Did those other men touch that bra hook, too?
Go on, perform convoluted acrobatics as to how the DNA flew in from under the LOCKED* door when your hero feebly tried to force it open**.
You're knowingly and dishonestly implying the DNA was left on the hook on Nov. 2. You conveniently (and dishonestly) ignore the 46 days before its collection wherein unrecorded multiple people went in and out of the bedroom with no record of what, if any, anti-contamination protocols were violated. Violations that are recorded on Dec. 18 by the police themselves. Go on, perform convoluted acrobatics as to how the clasp moved from its first photographed site next to Kercher's body several feet across the room in a pile of debris. Did it fly? Walk itself?
*We know only one person present that night would have had the key to lock it.
Yes, Guede who took Kercher's keys so he could get out the locked front door.
**Most likely, he tried to force it open when the pair realised they had left AMANDA KNOX' lamp on the floor next to Mez' bed.
Why not use the key you insist they had?
Additionally, if they KNEW they had left Knox's lamp in the bedroom and were trying to retrieve it but failed, why would they not have had an explanation ready for the police as to why it was there? Something as easy and plausible as "When we saw her here this afternoon, she asked if she could borrow it for her desk as I was staying with Raffaele and not using it." But no, instead she says she doesn't know how it got to Kercher's bedroom. You think they are so smart that they can remove all evidence of her from the bedroom, but they can't make up a plausible reason for the lamp being there? They're incredibly smart when you need them to be but incredibly stupid when you need them to be. You want to have it both ways.
 
A poster said I had imagination, unwittingly handing me a compliment and admitting envy of it.
Sigh. "All you have is your imagination and a keyboard," is not a compliment and claiming that I 'admitted envy of it' is yet more evidence of your imagination. I think 'delusions' might have been a more accurate word than 'imagination'.
The technicality is that the whole thing was declared an acquittal owing to 'insufficient evidence'
Nope. You are falsely claiming that Art. 530, chapter 2 of the code of criminal procedure under which they were exonerated is a 'technicality'.
because Bruno - Marasca allowed themselves to be browbeaten by Bongiorno waving a lenghty paper written by third party academic Peter Gill, using notes from Conti-Vecchiotti, a weirdo friend of the guilty with a wet belief in USA innocent Project campaigners.
Some posts don't even deserve a reply. That's one of them.

The "imagination" in guilter posts is somewhat similar to the "hallucinations" that can occur in artificial intelligence: a word salad with falsehoods.
 
Vixen has still failed to give a single example of when Knox "even demonstrates Kercher's scream by placing her hands over her ears whenever she talks about it." Nor has she provided "a single court that found that Knox was referring to anywhere but Sollecito's apartment when she said "I was there. I can't lie about this".

Two more assfact accusations from her that she will never admit are false even though she cannot back them up with any evidence. Pretty much par for the course.
