Amanda Knox describes the 14 hour interrogation which led her to create a 'vision' that implicated Patrick Lumumba in the murder of Meredith Kercher. Authorities declared this her "confession", arrested her, her boyfriend Raffaele Sollecito and Lumumba then announced that Amanda had led a sex orgy gone wrong that resulted in the death of Ms. Kercher; "case closed". Investigating the charges they had themselves coerced from Amanda authorities discovered Mr. Lumamba had an alibi for the night of the murder; he was released within days. On Nov 29, shortly before it was seized and selective parts leaked to the press, Amanda wrote in her prison diary, "I'm so sorry for all this confusion and in particular for what I did to Patrick. I'm happy that he has been set free." The Supreme Court ruled this "confession/vision" was obtained illegally and inadmissible as evidence in court. Despite this a rambling, confused memoriale she wrote the following morning in which she states her statement the night before can't be trusted but she stood by what she said was introduced in a civil suit Lumumba brought against her that was held concurrently with the criminal trial. This statement here was given Oct 18, 2008 before Judge Paulo Micheli who dismissed as fantasy authorities accusations Kerchers' death was the result of a pagan, sacrificial rite associated with the day of the dead that was characterized by Sollecitos' lawyers as "a Satanic Ritual " opting instead for a more believable theory: Amanda morphed within six weeks from a young woman who attended prep-school, a soccer player, disciplined gymnast and award winning honors student who held 3 jobs while remaining on the Deans list at UW so she could afford to study abroad, into a sex deviate who acquired succubus powers during her month and a half stay in Perugia; she seduced new boyfriend Raffaele Sollecito whom she'd met at a classical music concert eight days prior to the murder and who into a plot to force Meredith Kercher to participate in a drug fueled (marijuana) extreme sex game that would end with her rape and murder with Rudy Guede, a low level drug dealer with a history of burglaries and knife fights whose DNA was found on the body and who has adjusted his story three times after interrogation until he placed Raffael and Amanda at the scene and claimed he tried to rescue Meredith from the crazed pair. Amanda Knox was indicted for murder, sexual violence, robbery and making a false confession. Charging her supporters tried to influence the court and insulted investigators Judge Gincarlo Massei ordered Amanda confined in the penitentiary to await trial. At the start of her testimony in the formal trial he changed the schedule to allow Mr. Lumumba's attorney to question her first; her entire defense has been heard by the jury under the cloud of a "confession" ruled illegally obtained by the Supreme Court.
It is noted: prosecutor Guiliano Mignini's own conviction for abuse of power in another case of satanic ritual murder he uncovered has been vacated on technical grounds re jurisdictional issues. A decision to retry him is pending.
Douglas Preston, author of "The Monster of Florence", a document of that case critical of that investigation, spoke about his own interrogation by Mignini, describing the prosecutor, who arrested and imprisoned his co-author, as perpetrator of the "worst abuse of power in Western Europe he had ever seen". Preston left Italy under threat of arrest as an accessory to murder. When he returned to Maine and looked out over the Atlantic he too began to cry.
This audio of Amandas' statement at the Oct 18 hearing was obtained by CBS News. Mr. Mignini dismissed this 6 minute statement by a young girl on trial for her life as "crocodile tears". We doubt Mr. Preston agrees with that characterization. Mignini then went on for five hours developing a scenario that led to the Satanic sex orgy he believed was at the heart of this case. "All that is needed is a video of it!" he declared.
Mr. Preston went on to add an afterward to his book: "Amanda Knox".
Amanda was incarcerated in Capanne Prison from November 6, 2007 until Oct 3, 2011 when she was found innocent in her appeal.
