AMANDA KNOX — Murder In Perugia

 

November 1, 2007: Meredith Kercher is raped and murdered in Perugia. This case made international headlines for years.

In her statements to the Italian police, Amanda Knox accuses bar owner Diya Patrick Lumumba of the crime. Lumumba is arrested but proves to have a cast iron alibi.

Although Ruede Guede remains the sole person convicted of the crime, it is clear that Knox and her then boyfriend Raffaele Sollecito told a pack of lies about their activities that night, especially Knox.

File this one under FALSE AND TRUE.

Murder victim Meredith Kercher; like his one-time lover, Raffaele Sollecito with the glasses speaks and lies in fluent English, but it was Knox who falsely accused bar owner Lumumba of raping Meredith. The black dude is Rudy Guede, the real killer. The question that will probably never be satisfactorily answered is did he really act alone as the law now claims?
