Using a photo of Amanda Knox...


Using a photo of Amanda Knox in this evening's episode was beyond poor taste. Seriously? I may never watch this show again do to that bit. The woman is innocent. Period.

Knox was found guilty.

And that was reversed, which makes the show's contention interesting.

>>Knox was found guilty.

The girl was caught lying, I've no doubt about her guilt

I wouldn't call it in poor taste, but I was surprised to see it there since she is in the middle of an appeal. Though, as was pointed out, she was found guilty, so that makes her fair game.

That said, if you never watch again, you probably won't be missed.

Still, very poor taste, especially since that Perugian court's verdict was anything but legal or logical, even by already pretty low Italian standards.

To be "found guilty" based on no evidence, no witness statements, no circumstantial evidence, without any confession is..... astounding, for an allegedly democratic western constitutionally-founded republic..... Especially if a verdict is simply based on the facts that the jury disliked her for being a contemporary american girl and disagreed with her moral take on relationships. Then again, if she had been the Italian prime-minister, it probably would have been alright.

But generally, the plot of "Killer App" was pretty tasteless, rather shamelessly ripping-off "the Social Network" and entire Zuckerberg-Facebook soap opera...

Innocent or not, she still lied during the investigation when she tried pull the 'blame the black dude' card. She is clearly to stupid to realize that that only works for white girls in the US, not abroad.


And no, she is guilty as sin. There are tons of evidence which she have been unable to defend herself against. She is also lacking an alibi. Shouldn't be so hard for an innocent to come up with something would it?

The of course we have her behavior the whole way through: First trying to blame the black man (see above), then changing her alibi several times, then trying to play the "I'm just an innocent girl, I have no idea what is going on" card for sympathy. Not to mention her pathetic lies that she was molested or whatever by the police which got disproven faster than shy could utter them.

And what are the arguments against her? The only thing there is the claim that there are no evidence (because her defenders refuse to accept them). And the only reason people are defending her are because they are upset that Americans can be held accountable when they commit crimes in other countries.

I assumed she was guilty until I read all the "evidence" and I was pretty shocked at how inconclusive it was. Coupled with the lack of motive and out of character element for both her and her boyfriend, I had REALLY serious doubts. I think they made the right call on appeal. She may not be purely innocent, but I don't believe for a second she raped and killed anyone.

You must feel really stupid now...

geuss he was innocent after all

reply

you people are retarded
first off all the black guy admitted to the murder, said he did not know them.
and all the evidence proves he did the murders.
not one shred of evidence points to her.
anyone who believes that she is guilty is simply a dumb ass moron

reply

you clearly are an idiot because there is not one shred of evidence in fact all the evidence points to rudy being the sole killer

Cute girls are always innocent, right? :-)

Come on guys, isn't it natural to make out with your boyfriend and do cartwheels when you learn that your roommate has been viciously murdered?


reply

Italian police are corrupt beoynd words. Berlusconi has bought his way to the top, and is loved by most Italiens for bedding teenagers and being corrupt.

Italia is like a third world country when it come sto justice.

That being said, I think Amanda Knox knew what was happening, and in my opinion, I believe that her boyfriend is a sociopath. And a murderer. Amanda Knox had to watch him and Rudy kill Meredith, even if she wanted to or not.

Although very late to this thread only working my way through LIE TO ME via available torrents I can only suggest to those who disrespect the ethos of police men and politicians in Old Europe [in this case Italy] please remember just how many of the USA are descended from the same gene pool that made up those corrupt leaders. Think carefully of all those IRISH and ITALIAN descendants in the USA land of the brave etc who probably have not behaved all that much different in their particular individual rise to power.

Also do remember that even in your wonderful USA your [not embarrassed to play around with the law] legal counselors found a [wrongly accused] OJ Simpson innocent of a TERRIBLE crime. I am of course being sarcastic. More recently they made a doctor appear guilty of something like the murder of 'GOD' himself in the Jackson death trial when all he seems to have done is carried out the wishes of an egotistical 'plonker' [brit pejorative word] whose suggested and alleged crimes may now never see the light of day. Mind you who can now do a blackmail job on the deceased. Now there is a motive for taking someone out if a living estate can be compromised.

Some years ago a British nanny was accused of shaking a baby to death in the USA. On appeal she was released. I doubt she has had a film, book and TV appearances post her eventual acquittal. I cannot make a serious knowing comment about her guilt or innocence. I dont think she even made a statement to the press here.

I do not know if Amanda Knox has blood on her hands from an actual hands on killing but I'll bet her facial gesture inclusion was to show as so many other facial close ups have been shown to offer the viewer a visual of a REAL certain facial TELL. We are treated to very many pictures of these facial difficult to hide TELLS. This Knox one would have been very well checked by those who DO have this knowledge on the production team. Tim Roth [normally a very good actor in major supporting roles] whose gestures etc are beginning to annoy me is only an ACTOR voicing the lines written by a screen writer and did not actually look up Amanda Knox's video files himself.

To write a knee jerk defence of someone who's involvement or not in a very serious crime is questionable of that individuals perception of the real world.

Mind you I suppose in a land where death rows are full of men waiting [or have already married]to marry unknown sad women around the world I should not be surprised. I suppose its one way to get those [conjugal] visits.

As a series I am enjoying the overall plot. I tuned into this area because I noticed a movie that has Mellisa George in the starring role. When I saw her picture I realised that I had only seen her last night as the Billionaires wife accused of his murder. I thought I knew her face. I heard Tim Roths character proposition her in a way and now see that she is going to appear in a few more episodes. So we get to see more of Mr Roth's Tattoos or are they Lightmans?

As an add on I must say that if I was Cal Lightman I could not have a professional relationship with Foster. I would be near to being arrested every few minutes. Yeah I know that it would only happen once and my career would than be from one of those death row places.

you wan't to know something interesting
as good of a show this is. the science in the show has been proven as junk science.
it has been proven that you can not tell if someone is lieing based on micro expressions. the very science of micro expressions is as subjective as art. or taste in woman or taste in food. or test results of a lie detector. ie it is not accurate one bit.



with that in mind. if you have a logical mind and have read up on the case of Amanda knox you would know that there is no evidence that she killed anyone

reply
