FWIW, Barbie apparently disagrees with what you think (again).
Of course:
1) I fully accept that Barbie is either hailed as a revered authority here when she reports something that this audience likes to hear about the case or she just as quickly is scorned as merely another a typical guilter idiot when she says something this audience does not wish to hear.
I suspect there needs to be a new 'White Knight Talking Backwards,' and come to think about it, perhaps there was a better one all along, as I don't think the last one ever truly belonged. On the other hand who is the most fervent defender of that little hole, its idols, its mission, the one attacking and mocking its enemies even without support, and who of course has taken to calling
others 'White Knights?' Therefore I think we've found one who fits even more perfectly into the mural of
'Projection Mal Faite.'
Everyone rational is surprised but pleased when Barbie gets something right, which is something we can corroborate with the other facts of the case and more consistent sources of information. Since we don't have to rely solely on her and a
Dreamweaver's Den for our information, this is easy to determine and some hold out a forlorn hope it might wake those out of their
haze, though from this current twitter you report it appears she's sinking back into the
dream herself.
2) With that in mind and with my own personal respect for what she says somewhat greater than the cheap "what people are wearing" shot you regrettably proffer, Barbie has just said:
"Sched for grand finale #amandaknox appeal #perugia still fluid-depends on whether judge allows new prosecution witnesses. Big day 2morrow."

See what I mean? What on earth could she possibly mean by 'Perugia still fluid' and it depends on the judge allowing
prosecution witnesses? She must be living in a
fantasy world. What could we expect from this witness, is this the one referred to in Christiana's recent post, the relevant portion which translates something like
this:
Phineas Gage Follies: said:
To bring up the last inmate with a 'criminal record' is another prominent prisoner, that Cosmo Zaccaro already heard in the Court of Assizes of Appeal (President Claudio Pratillo Hellmann, alongside Massimo Zanetti - as indicated by the prosecutor General as a witness in rebuttal by Mario Alessi and Luciano Aviello (the latter in turn has recently recanted). A self-styled secret service employee of the Finance Zaccaro was sentenced for having invented the existence of a conspiracy of the 'Falange Army' against Italian State. In the classroom enriches the chapter of another witness-convicts yellow Aviello would invent the story of his brother-murderess for a fee in order to submit to surgery.
A few weeks Aviello actually has virtually confirmed that story to the prosecutors presenting the case voluntarily - Manuela Giuliano Mignini and Comfortable - recanting everything and explaining that he had lied in court.
Even Zaccaro has come back in via Fiorenzo di Lorenzo to add some details about the murder of British student. He said in particular that would have revealed that their Catapano was Raffaele Sollecito and break the glass of the room to simulate Filomena Romanelli at Via della Pergola theft and away from himself and the suspects in the murder of Amanda. Catapano, however, no confirmation. Remember the shared custody with ex-boyfriend of the enigmatic American but does not remember the 'cat lady' that would surprise Raffaele to break the glass.
Pilot, what does that even
say? The railroad spike has left a clean hole and my brains have oozed out entirely, my ability to comprehend machine-translated Italian has apparently left the building with Elvis. The best I can make out is the imaginary secret service agent who invents conspiracies against the Italian State, last seen wondering aloud in jealousy about Aviello's prison job, seemingly suspicious of a
conspiracy, now 'remembers' something about some clown named Catapano. He's the guy (?) in the first paragraph of the story for those brave enough to follow the link, who "regretted the Camorra" whatever the hell that means. Now he's breaking the glass of Filomena's room with Raffaele, but doesn't remember the 'Cat Lady'--whom I'm guessing is 'Amanda?' I thought she was a 'Fox?' Or a deer named 'Bambi?' Now she's a kitten? She draws bunnies in court! Dear Lord! Look what we've found!
Barbie thinks for some reason this puts the appeal 'up in the air?!?' I suspect Barbie needs to lay off the odorous
smokables. The next thing we know Maresca will be insisting that Luxxor the
transsexual testify on this newly discovered plot of worthless testimony for sex change operations, and will demand the case be appealed to the Supreme Court by the prosecution if this crucial new 'evidence' isn't examined thoroughly! I do like the reminder of how Comodi's name gets translated by Gobble 'translate' as
'comfortable' as that is how I feel sometimes trying to figure out this case--it's a contact high!
Lacking the affinity for or appreciation of the customary endless examinations and dogmatic pronunciations of "what other people mean" when they are directly quoted that is also so much in vogue here, I would suggest to you that in contrast to "what you think", the "other witnesses" have already been placed on a list awaiting Judge Hellman's decision to hear or not.
What you
you think about all this, Pilot? Do you think this is a real inquiry into the death of a girl, or a rather absurd attempt by a delusional prosecutor? Do you really care to hear more about the sex-change conspiracy? Do you think it will convince anyone that Raffaele and Amanda were involved in this screwball's nutty theory? Do you understand why people have difficulty taking Barbie Nadeau seriously when she thinks the case hinges on idiocy like this?
Finally you diminish your usual admirable impeccable demeanor while arguing here with the totally unnecessary and somewhat off topic fashonista versus forensics snarky ad hom like slur
At least she had something of a point there, as Bri and others noted about the odd dress codes prevalent in Italy. Maybe she should go back to writing about the fashion of the people in court, I'm especially interested in Comodi's painted-on crotch-killer pants, and Napoleoni's 'cleavagy slut-bomb' tops.
