The View showed a clip of Nancy Grace talking to the cameras about how she feels Knox is guilty. As The View said, she won't last too long on DWTS if she keeps speaking out against Knox. Never speak out against "the all-American girl, America's Sweetheart/poor girl/she who is too beautiful to be going through this."

Hmmm...I think Nancy Grace was there and failed to stop them! Maybe we should throw Nancy Grace in jail. She is such an idiot. Who knows what happened, but that trial was a farce.

Nancy Grace has taken her past life experience (the murder of her fiancée) and turned it into a crusade where everyone is guilty. It got her into trouble as a prosecutor (I believe she was cited for prosecutorial misconduct), but as a talking head she is free to just spout her opinions.

ETA: I don't know if Knox is guilty, she may very well be, but this was more of a general comment on Nancy Grace.

Am I the only person who didn't know there is an Amanda Knox movie?

I am watching it now on LMN. I missed an hour but I'm sure I didn't really miss anything.

Nancy Grace needs counseling. Anyone who actually listens to her after her two year obsession with "Tot Mom" probably does too- just from having to listen to all of that.

Not that I don't think "Tot Mom" was guilty, but GIVE IT A REST!!!

I can't stand her.

As for Amanda Knox, what I've said before still applies: If I was sitting on that jury, based on the information I heard, I would not be able to convict her. Is she innocent or guilty? Only God knows.

Interesting. I guess an appeal will be a big waste of time.

I don't think that is correct...here is a link to the treaty:
http://untreaty.un.org/unts/60001_12...5/00051223.pdf

I'm not an international law expert, but my understanding is that even with a treaty, there are circumstances under which a country may not have to cooperate under the treaty.

So if Italy tries to extradite her back the US doesn't have to comply?

Again, I am not an international law expert, but my understanding is that the extradition request has to contain some evidence of guilt. If the evidence in this case was so tainted as to bring her guilt into question, then it makes me think the US may have a good argument against extradition.
