  1. I feel for her. Trial by public opinion and media is an appalling part of modern society that you cannot defend yourself against, and to be sent to prison for a murder you never committed is worse.

  2.  @edyann  No she isn't. She was definitively and comprehensively PROVEN to be innocent. The murderer was a known burglar who broke in. His bloody fingerprints were found at the scene. And people's judgement of liars is NOTORIOUSLY unreliable. However, the fact that people like YOU continue to victimise her is EXACTLY the point of this video.

  3. @Oh Happy Day I read the court report that extensively exonerated her. But I'm sure you know better.

  4. Of course she was. Her life was destroyed by being sent to prison and being falsely accused.

  5.  @edyann  We disagree because you are driven by emotions not facts.

  6. Nothing. She is innocent beyond all doubt. A man is in prison for the murder. His bloody fingerprints were found at the scene.

  7.  @TheTruthCalls  Yup, that's the trouble with trial be media.

  8.  @briancorvello3620  Nah, just outright claimed that the reports at the time proved she was guilty.

  9.  @stevie-ray2020  Don't go ruining a perfectly good narrative by bringing facts Stevie-Ray. After all, that's not what this video is precisely about.

  11.  Johnny Caruthers  Which is why I suspect, the EU made it as painful as possible for Britain to serve as a warning. I would have thought France would not tolerate it as their population are so strong on worker rights, but now they have a bigger seat at the table so they may be seduced by that for a while. Until they come to realise that also means they have a bigger bill.

  12.  @TheWchurchill4pm  I feel that this is an inevitable power grab. A new organisation will only ever do the same eventually.

  13.  @katelewis536  And people like you, who were never a part of the case, and didn't stay informed on her subsequent total exoneration, backed up by forensic evidence, think that they know the truth better than the experts and courts that subsequently vindicated her. It was never Knox' "performance" that got her freed - it was the evidence. But then you don't care about that do you?
