Amanda Knox Appeal

The appeal of Amanda Knox's murder conviction is expected to reach its conclusion on Monday and the general feeling is that the conviction for killing her fellow student, Meredith Kercher, in Italy in 2007 will be quashed. Her friends and family seem very optimistic having hired a private to fly her back home from Italy to America straight after the ruling.
The two key pieces of evidence against Knox was DNA tests and that have been shown to be shaky at best.
The bra clasp of Meredith's said, to have been cut away during a struggle, was not found until six weeks after the murder and the murder weapon had Knoxs handle and Kercher's DNA on the blade. Italian forensic experts now tell the appeal court they could not be certain that the DNA traces found the knife were those of Kercher.
Against her are the bloody footprints of Knox found near the murder and in Knox's bedroom, the badly staged burglary in Meredith's flat and the changing alibi of where she was on the night of the murder.
Originally she confessed to being in the flat and blocking her ears to shut out the sound of Kercher's screams. She later denied being in the flat and had spent the evening at her boyfriends house all night. Her boyfriend, the co-accused Mr Sollecito's, claimed that he had been working on his computer at home while Miss Kercher was being murdered but police say tests on his PC state his computer had not been access that evening.
Knox initially accused a Congolese bar-owner, Diya Lumumba, of the murder and he was held for two weeks before being released without charge.
If the other evidence is the main factor, then i expect her to complete the 26 year sentence that was passed down in 2009. If the decision of her guilt comes down to the DNA evidence, i expect her to be freed.
