More from Filomena on the 2nd:
"I got a call from Amanda asking me if I knew anything that had come to our house and there was blood in his bathroom, while the front door appeared open. Immediacy not alarmed me greatly, because at first I thought that the girls had left the door open. Anyway I asked Amanda to do a check of the house and let me know if there was something wrong. From this moment on, I can not say for sure if she called me before Amanda or if it was me calling her because they in succession many phone calls between us."
Nencini's idiotic meme (picked up from the even dumber Mignini?) that Filomena had 1 minute "dropped calls" to Amanda demolished in a single blow.
My timeline of the morning of the 2nd is now pretty solid IMO:
~11:00ish Amanda arrives at the cottage to take a shower and get ready for the road trip and is slightly alarmed by the open door and blood and crap in the toilet.
~11:30 Amanda arrives back at Raffs. She mops up the kitchen floor from the broken pipe while he makes breakfast.
~12:00 During breakfast Amanda tells Raff about the strange things she noticed at the cottage. Raff says she should just ask one of her roommates.
12:07 Amanda calls Meredith, gets no answer
12:08 Amanda calls Filomena and asks if she knows anything going on at the cottage, Filomena says no and tells Amanda to asks Meredith.
12:11 This time Amanda tries Meredith's Italian phone, no answer
12:11 She tries the UK phone again no answer
12:12 Filomena calls back, this was probably Filomena telling Amanda she just remembered Laura is out of town, Amanda probably tells her Meredith isn't picking up her phone.
12:16 Filomena calls Meredith's UK phone
12:20 Amanda is waiting for Raff to finish getting ready, she checks gmail on his computer. (Perugia Shock)
12:20 Filomena calls Amanda again and asks her what she sees at the cottage, Amanda tells her has not even yet left the house.
12:22 Amanda checks her friends facebook page after getting off the phone with Filomena
~12:24 Raff is ready and they leave for the cottage
~12:30 Amanda and Raff arrive at the cottage. Within minutes they discover Filomena's room has a break-in
12:34 Filomena calls, Amanda tells her about the break-in, she says she's on her way home
12:35 Raff uses his phone to recharge his minutes
12:38 Raff gets a notification of new minutes on his phone
12:40 Raff gets a call from his father
12:40 Filomena calls her boyfriend and tells him to meet her at the cottage, if he arrives first to call the police
~12:45 Raff and Amanda have tried busting open Meredith's door and peeking in from the balcony.
12:47 Amanda calls her mom, presumably while waiting for Filomena to arrive. Amanda's mom tells her to call the police, she relays this to Raff.
12:50 Raff calls his sister, a police officer, for advice, she says to call the emergency number
12:51 Raff calls the emergency number and reports the break-in
12:55 The call to the police ends
12:55 Amanda and Raff go outside and wait for the police and Filomena to arrive
~12:57 The postal police find the two students waiting outside.
A wonderful reconstruction with only one tiny snag. The CCTV clearly shows the postal police doing exactly what they said they did at 12:35-36. Pausing in the entrance of the carpark and then backing out and moving into the driveway with a 12:36 timestamp.
So lets create the "Investigative Amnesia" reconstruction. This reconstruction is trying to solve the following puzzles
- why the postal police searched Lana's garden when the phones were thrown there
- why the postal police arrived at 12:35 (confirmed by CCTV) and were met by Knox and Sollecito who were waiting for them
- why Filomena lied about internet access on the witness stand
- why Filomena extracted her laptop and then showed it to the police that evening supposedly not working
--------------------------------------
21:52 Giacomo S. and Stefano B. depart cottage by car for Porto San Giorgio to obtain an alibi. They leave behind Daniele De L.
21:59 alerted by incoming SMS, they decide to discard phones by throwing into Lana's garden. Lana or children retrieve one phone (Filomena's) and call postal police.
22:15 Postal police arrive, search rest of garden but do not find the English phone, return to station with Filomena's phone
~ 11:00 in response to a text from Luca Altieri, police ring Altieri using Filomena's phone to try and locate owner and why it was thrown in garden. Altieri stonewalls.
12:07 Knox calls Meredith. No answer, ringing alerts Lana or children and the English phone is found.
12:08 Knox calls Filomena, gets postal police. Asked if she can go around to apartment to receive phone.
12:11 Knox calls Guede (number on yellow post it note) - no answer
12:11 Knox calls Meredith again. Phone now being transported to station by Lana and children, they don't answer.
12:12 Postal police call Knox using Filomena's phone. Tell them about 2nd phone being brought in. Knox suggests it might belong to Meredith
12:16 Postal police, having a bright idea, try calling Meredith's phone using the address book in Filomena's phone. Lana or children probably don't answer (if they weren't already in station)
12:20 Postal Police call Knox again and say they are on their way and tell them about calling Meredith's phone (answered or not).
12:34 Postal police call Knox and say they can't find apartment. Knox and Sollecito come out onto the road.
12:36 CCTV captures Fiat Punto in entrance of carpark
12:40 Knox rings Altieri using number stored in Filomena's phone. Altieri rings Zaroli in alarm. Zaroli rings his girlfriend to get Filomena back immediately. Both Zaroli and Altieri rush to the house
12:52. After consulting family members Knox and Sollecito call real police
13:00 Filomena arrives and demands door gets broken down
~13:30 Filomena rings lawyer for help, he suggests saying she gave her phone to Kercher. Filomena sees the number on post-it note and suggests that could be the call to Kercher's "Italian" phone.
4th or 5th of November. Guede is traced to Kindergarten in Milan by phone signal. Phone confiscated to become evidence: Meredith's Italian phone. Kitchen knife, hammer, cocaine and laptop placed in backpack
early am 6 November. Knox names wrong black guy. Guede released later that day.
The only puzzle is why the postal police made up the toilet bomb hoax, because the narratives works just as well if they had Meredith's Italian phone overnight in the station. I think perhaps they were so nervous about their 11:00 am conversations with Altieri, they wanted it to be absolutely clear that no phones arrived at the station until 11:30
Quite unnecessarily, because the calls they were worried about looked on paper just normal calls between Filomena and her boyfriend
