Italy has a different Justice System than we do here in America. We are innocent till proven guilty. Amanda's initial trial found her guilty. However there were numerous issues that the court denied her to prove her innocents. The Police Investigation was defective. There was no DNA or Physical evidence proving she had committed the crime. Hence Italy's Supreme Court threw out the verdict and demanded a retrial. In Italy, if you appeal your conviction and loose they add more time to your sentence. This is to intimidate the accused. The Italian Court release Amanda. She was free to leave the Country. Italy's "Kangaroo" Court now has tried her without her being there. Of course we knew what the verdict was going to be. They want to make an example. Lets not let this happen to an American.
