Amanda Knox Murder Conviction Overturned..

[Mitchell]

Should be, and I hope I';m posting this in the right place.

www.CNN.com.

Right now it's on the front page of that site, in bold letters.

Amanda Knox's murder conviction has been overturned by an Italian Court.

I'm going to wait for some reactions before posting any opinion of my own.

Thoughts on this, please?

Why? You started the thread, so you should lead with your opinion as well.

Fine. Fair enough, so here goes.

At first, I had honestly thought she was guilty.

However, in spite of the fact that she spent four years in jail..

Since the court overturned the conviction twice, it would seem to me that she was given the fair verdict.

In the court's mind, there was apparently not enough evidence, to convict her.

Therefore, it would seem that the verdict rendered today was the correct one.

Such is my honest opinion.

I have followed this case a bit after having seen some documentaries on it. I've always felt there's something (or someone) missing from the story somewhere, something not quite right about it all.

I had a feeling she would be acquitted - there seemed to be so much doubt over the evidence and over her guilt...however, there is presumably equal doubt over her innocence and over what really happened.

She herself does come over as very believable and genuine.
