That took a while.

BTW, it just struck me, why do we tend to talk about Amanda Knox and fail to mention Rafaelle Sollecito?

  Amanda Knox is American, so she gets more attention from American news media.

    As well as a wholesome looking WHITE college student, which makes so many other people with latent homicidal tendencies from the same background feel viciously protective of her innocence!

      Why do we need latent homicidal tendencies to feel protective? That’s bizarre.
