Lets all remember that a 'Not Guilty" verdict does not mean innocent!

I truly resent the media from forcing this whole affair on us! Now a special on Friday. Book deals, movie deals, interviews etc. My children all had semesters abroad and her activities don't do anything for the image of the US. We will probably never know the truth!

I am so happy for Amanda. From the beginning I felt she was railroaded. Each country has a different legal system, I just know I will not be traveling to Italy soon or ever. Her parents are probably broke, but they love and supported her as any parent knowing their child would do. I wonder if any of our american celebrities will step up to the plate and help her like they did the so called innocent hikers. anyways AMANDA, Welcome home, believe and never let anyone tell you how to move on. Just focus and know you have learned a very important lesson. And the lesson is one for only you to understand.

how sad for everyone involved. the poor parents of the victim...i hope they can solve it now tht she is cleared. it appeared that they never looked for other suspects but then what do i know....it is sad

I have opions but will just say NO Comment!!!!!!

i am glad she is freed :thumbup:

Actually, I think it was a good photographer who took videos of the police mishandling all the evidence. The prosecutors were good, the police not so much.

No undeniable proof - no guilty verdict. It's time for people to leave her alone and let her get back to living her life.

She and her boyfriend were both set free yesterday. There is another guy who admitted to the crime serving 16 year for the rape and murder. He implcated them, but I don't think they knew him. From CNN his DNA was all over the place, oh the murder victim, weapon etc. A DNA researcher from Idaho Who was involved somehow in the relook at the DNA gathering really made it clear that the Italians botched the gathering of DNA - Amanda lived there naturally her DNA would be in the Villa. I am sad that it took 4 years for this to be resolved for these two young people. Perhaps she will talk to the media at some point. Scary to be in a foreign country for two months have have this horrific murder happen in the place where you live, much less be accused of being involved in the murder.
That is what I get for watching too much CNN

I was reading that her parents and grandmother are mortgaged to the hilt, have tons of credit card debt, and that there have been fund raising efforts and help from friends.
