American Amanda Knox’s defense lawyer said, her innocence was rock solid.
Knox is in the United States following a previous acquittal, but her former Italian lover Raffaele Sollecito was in court, awaiting what will be the fourth ruling in this high-profile case.
Carlo Dalla Vedova (her lawyer) told the court in his final arguments, the knowledge of Amanda’s innocence is now rock-solid and it allows us to await the verdict with serenity,
He said that, it is not possible to criminal someone because they are considered ‘probably’ guilty.
Knox and Sollecito exhausted four years in jail for the murder of Leeds University exchange student Meredith Kercher, who was establish with compound stab wounds and her gullet slit in the house she shared with Knox in the city of Perugia in central Italy.
The two were acquitted in 2011 but the Supreme Court overturned that ruling in 2013, sending the case back for re-trial as Italy does not have laws against “double jeopardy” — prosecuting someone for a crime of which he or she had been acquitted.
The judgment probable later on Thursday power still not be the concluding word in the long-running case because both examination and the defences have the right to application again to the Supreme Court.
The 29 year old Sollecito told reporters, “People who it in for me had thought I would not be coming”
According to Knox, She has not returned to Italy for fear ‘wrongly convicted’
According to the Family lawyer (Francesco Maresca), they are very tired of the ongoing judicial process and hope that they will get justice.
