david f @dfulmer 12/02/2021 This was a really interesting documentary that goes behind the headlines that I was reading just a few years ago to tell the true story. See more 10/26/2020 Amanda Knox was smart, beautiful, and a free spirit. And all of these worked against her. They tried to suggest that because she liked boys and sex that must mean she's guilty. See more Simon T @Bucksplit 07/25/2020 Dubious PR for the self-pitying and rather irritating Amanda Knox, who notoriously was charged/acquitted/charged/acquitted of the savage murder of fellow student, Meredith Kercher, alongside boyfriend Raffaele Sollecito. The elephant in the room is the extraordinary lack of respect or sensitivity shown by most of the protagonists towards Kercher, nowhere more clear than in the glib strutting of a so-called journalist with the hilariously appropriate name Nick Pisa. The documentary this aches to be has yet to be made. See more 05/12/2020 This is a remarkable story and yet another example of how the justice system — this time in Italy — can treat people so badly. Even though we know the outcome, the story is riveting from beginning to end. One of the things I like about a lot of recent documentaries is the way they use footage without third party commentary interviews of people not involved in the story. Obviously, the way a documentary maker puts together a story is affected by their perspective. But, at least, the viewer can form their own opinion recognising that there will always be other perspectives that different people involved may have. It does, however, seem that this documentary is presented in a balanced way. Obviously, we may never know the absolute truth about some cases like this; but at least it casts an incisive eye on the events which raise some reasonable doubts and exposes the way the media can distort and sensationalise events in such a way that individuals often don't obtain a fair trial. There's one reporter, Tony Pisa, who is particularly shameless in describing how he used this case for his own professional ego promotion. The other thing this documentary does very well is never let us forget that one of the victims in this tragedy, Meredith Kercher, was murdered. The death of this young woman was the ultimate tragedy in this story. Engrossing viewing. See more 03/24/2019 So much better than I expected. See more 02/14/2019 Well this situation is clearer now after this documentary than before...I have read other Amanda Haters dis on this documentary and still profess her guilt...so, the movie did walk a tightrope trying to present the facts, not too many of the facts, but enough to prove that there is EXTREME criminal action on the part of the Police, and the idiot, wanna be Sherlock Holmes, Prosecutor/Lead Investigator GIULIANO MIGNINI... I liked this documentary, it was riveting, and it ultimately showed that there was no case against Raffelle and Amanda...my problem with it, and ultimately with Amanda herself, is how the documentary does not show how Amandaï¿ 1/2(TM)s actions shifted the investigation onto her, by her truly bizarre behavior(in general, not just after the murders)ï¿ 1/2 For all readers interested in this story, and why you simply cannot even remotely think Amanda and Rafaelle killed Merideth, for there is no proof, no DNA and no ï¿ 1/2motiveï¿ 1/2Â?ï¿ 1/2 the admitted murderer and his truly excellent sleeze bag lawyer are the keys to unraveling one layer of this incredible story. Here are the facts: 1.)Rudy Guede did it, and he admitted he did itï¿ 1/2he is in jail for doing it(unfortunately due out soon)ï¿ 1/2his first Skype call interview totally exonerates Amanda and Rafaelle. 2.)Judge Hellman is a hero. 3.) Murderers do not travel to their murder scenes with a professional knife kit and return with their knives just partially cleaned and pop them back in their kitchen drawers...oh yeah, that knife with Amandaï¿ 1/2(TM)s DNA, as she was partially living with Rafaelle, and a cross contaminated speck of Merideths DNA, ï¿ 1/2was the wrong sizeï¿ 1/2Â?ï¿ 1/2hello after that set of headlines why did the press not have that in a headline?ï¿ 1/2 because MIGNINI would pop them in jail...yes, pop reporters into jail for months if they did not write what he liked. 4.)Not recorded!!! Hours and hours of grueling interrogation, but not recorded????ï¿ 1/2you bet this was recorded, and all that has to happen is a copy of that to get out and MIGNINI and the Perugia Police and those special interrogators from Rome will all go to jail where they belong... DNA cannot be manipulated to appear on a Bra Clasp but not on the rest of the Bra, or the body, or anywhere in that room. Amanda never bought bleach as the newspapers stated. What was false news read by the populace was never step by step reported as false in this documentary, and it is a shame it wasnï¿ 1/2(TM)t ...but Judge Hellman summed it up beautifully in his 100 plus pages of poetry in the appeals trial exoneration explanations....read that...educate yourself, and you will understand what a complete embarrassment MIGNINI, the Flying Squad Police, the original forensics team, and any Judge who convicted these two spaced out kids.
