I was never impressed by their evidence and thought the whole scenario was preposterous.

A man from the Ivory Coast has been convicted of the crime and is serving a 16 year sentence.

I hope Kercher's family can content themselves with the fact that the man who murdered their daughter is behind bars and that there was no reason to punish her roommates.

They don't seem to be there, yet. They're still blaming Knox and her ex boyfriend for leading their little girl into a sinful lifestyle, even if they didn't kill her.
