"The trial took nearly a year. But now that an Italian jury has determined that Amanda Knox, a 22-year-old American student, is guilty of murdering her British housemate in Perugia, Italy, in 2007, the legal wrangling has in some ways just begun."From thelede.blogs.nytimes.com













Amanda Knox appears to have been guilty of flaunting her relationship with her boyfriend; the collusion between this faux pas and the tragic murder of her roommate resulted in a guilty verdict. Never before have women been more at risk for exploitation of this kind... being more or less used as bargaining chips in cultural and political affairs.
