I said that she didn't get a fair trial, I personally think she is guilty but based on the evidence no one could say that beyond a reasonable doubt she was the killer.
Seems like you've been following the case more closely than me, so tell me if I'm wrong, but I thought her confessional statement was the product of 14 hours of uninterrupted interrogation, without a lawyer. That alone should raise suspicion as to its reliability.

Further, it seems like much of the prosecution's case was built on Knox's post-offence conduct: being with her boyfriend buying lingerie, public socializing, etc. But I fail to see how that is evidence of guilt.

On the other hand, I don't see why the police would unfairly target her. I mean, an expedient resolution was already reached in convicting the other guy, who was shown to have been a thief in that area.

Who knows? This is such a strange case, so much of which hinges on two completely distinct versions of the accused.
