There are two different issues associated with this murder trial:

1. Have the Italian court system proved their cases against Knox and Sollecito?

2. Irrespective of the evidence presented, were Knox and Sollecito involved with the murder? (As mob aficionados, we're well aware that many people are credited with murders without actually being convicted.)

If you are of the opinion that they were somehow involved, does that rationalize the judges' controversial decisions? Are you OK with convicting guilty parties without the proper evidence... does the end justify the means?

Americans tend to be fascinated with high profile murder trials. Personally, I wanted Casey Anthony to be found guilty because I honestly believe she committed the murder. Similar debates were waged with the Natalie Holloway, Trayvon Martin, and Nicole Simpson cases. The Gotti trial with Diane Giacalone can also be included.
