Running head: AMANDA KNOX CASE 1 Amanda Knox Case Stephanie M. Clapper Group A Team A CJE-2676-1 Everest University June 14, 2014 Amanda Dean AMANDA KNOX CASE 2 Amanda Knox Case Among the Italian Supreme Court’s causes for turning over Amanda Knox’s acquittal was their conviction that her declaration to the police force, in which she positioned herself at the murder sight and named the tavern owner Patrick Lumumba as the person involved in the killing, was influential evidence of her guilt (Campbell, 2010). The Supreme Court had, in previous events, establish that the questioning which was not record and for which Amanda Knox’s lawyers had not been present dishonored Knox’s civil rights. They fling it out as evidence in the original criminal trial, although appreciations to the peculiarities of Italian jurisprudence, it was permitted to be used as evidence and at the same time running civil proceeding. That Amanda did ultimately name Lumumba, a blameless man, to powers that be is of course fairly true. She named Patrick Lumumba to turn aside guilt from her and keep away from punishment concerning Meredith Kercher’s death. Amanda Knox’s guards point out that it was the police force, not Amanda, who persisted that Patrick Lumumba was the murderer, and that Amanda named him simply after a long questioning that included physical pressure and food and sleep denial (Conroy & Martz, 2005). Amanda Knox narrates a story concerning the proceedings prior the detection of the body that clashes with evidence. Amanda acted in an abnormal way. Convinced features of the story are inveterate to be lies. This was a trouble for Knox and Sollecito. In order to believe that they are not guilty, a number of unlikely events occurred the following morning after the murder, and that Amanda’s reply to several strange proceedings was lastly and abnormal, that they were lying regarding a number of the actions of that dawn for basis unconnected to the kill. However, there were several evidences that showed that Amanda was guilt (Grenville, 2011). One, there were AMANDA KNOX CASE 3 call to the emergency number that were made after the arrival of postal police. At the police station, Amanda behaved strangely the night the body was found. She was behaving in a way that nearly all people would discover unsuitable given the conditions. Her roommate's corpse had presently been discovered, and everybody was at the station and disturbed. Knox appeared totally unaware to the seriousness of the phenomenon. She was described as hugging and kissing Raffaele, and sometimes laughing (MacKay, 2012). This behavior was in bleak contrast to Knox's response when she was taken to be fingerprinted. As Amanda was escorted to be taken her fingerprints, she turned out to be nervous and started hitting herself on the head. Amanda could be suspected because she knew details of the crime she should not have known. At the station Amanda frequently hanged about with Sollecito, but not interacting with Meredith's friends. Her conduct was so strange that people present optional to the police that they ought to consider her a suspect. One thing in particular that got the police's concentration was that Meredith was killed next to her closet, but for a while her body was enthused to the center of the room (Peeke & Aalst, 2012). Before discovering this, Amanda already had said that it was a closet that killed Meredith. There was as well DNA evidence. There was a Double DNA Knife. A knife was discovered from Raffaele's residence that had the victim's DNA on the cutting edge, and Knox's DNA on the handle. This was a clear evidence for Amanda’s guilt. Amanda’s DNA was found with the victim's blood in five places, in the bathroom, in visible dilute blood traces and in footprints exposed with Luminol. A shoe print made in blood was seen on the cushion found beneath Meredith's body. Also, a police expert gave evidence that the print of a woman's shoe of the same size as Amanda Knox's.
