Ur saying the drug dealer was the only participate- How did he kno Meredith to began with?? What was his motive for killing her?? The crime scence wasnt broken into, so who let him in?? I followed the case from the beginning and I always thought Amanda was guilty. She told the cops she was at her boyfriend house during the time of crime wen cell phone reports proved she was lying. And are u suggesting cops/detectives in Italy only speak Italian?? If this were 'true' Im sure Amanda still had a english translator in the interrogation room with her. Lack of evidence does not = lack of guilt.

Played a role, no matter how small or big? If she herself didn't kill Meredith then she is not guilty of first degree murder. With what you said, the prosecutor should have tried the "accessory to murder" angle then. Fact of the matter is, there isn't any known motive for Amanda and her boyfriend to randomly kill and rape her roommate Meredith out of the blue.
Yes, I am saying that the drug dealer was the the sole assassin in this whole ordeal. How did he know Meredith before the killing? Who knows? He could have followed home a pretty girl home, where he raped and killed her from there. Maybe it was a drug deal gone bad. We don't know, but evidence pretty much all points to him.
Not everyone are efficient and precise with their memory, recalling events that happened the day before or beyond. Hell, if my mother asked me where I was calling her from last night this morning, 9/10 I will recall something that isn't 100% correct. No, I am sure not all Italian policemen are fluent in Italian and English. I am sure there are some that are fluent in the language, but they may have not been involved with the case at that time. My belief is, you had officers who spoke broken English, similar to Amanda's situation with speaking broken Italian, and they spoke with the language they felt most comfortable with (Italian). i dont' think they had the English translator at the moment of questioning, later yes, but right at the moment of arrest and questioning? No! (This confusion between sides would not happen if counsel was present)
Legally, the Italian Supreme Court found that her human rights had been violated when she was denied a lawyer in her interrogation. Thus, the confession was ruled inadmissible in the criminal trial; however, it was still read to the jury because they double as the jury in the civil defamation suit.
They were persistent and hard on her, which provided an intense and intimidating environment for her. That is the nature of an interrogation session with any law enforcement wherever you go because that's the method they use to get results at times, intimidation and playing on your fears. There is a reason the law states, YOU MUST HAVE COUNSEL PRESENT when being interrogated. Anything you say at that time should be tossed out because you can't be held responsible for what comes out of your mouth. You don't have the support or legal advice to guide you through the process. Interrogation is an imitating process that would frazzle anyone, much less a visitor in a foreign country where people speak primarily a language that is not of your own.
). Inflicting great harm upon INNOCENT people because she was distressed is NEVER right and IMO these situations are what separate a good person from the corrupt one, you can tell how low someone would stoop to with the given circumstances.
