Complete pardons for the Norfolk Four

It's just you seem to be trying to attach yourself to an important event, but I can't quite see where exactly you're attached. Could you point it out to me?

We can help in a few ways. . . .We can talk to others and tell them that both wrongful convictions and false confessions are real problems. In addition, if we get on a jury (I have been on a jury), you can keep that in mind as well.
 
Ah! Yeah I remember this case now (was getting it mixed up with wm3). Yeah the evidence was overwhelming it was the one person that confessed. This is the only wrongful conviction that I have seen that was equal or more obvious than the Knox/sollecito trial. It's a shame prosecutors can get away with crap like this.

What I want to know is how people even begin to be convinced of guilt when the evidence points to such an overwhelmingly obvious conclusion.

Son, let me tell you about a man named Russ Faria...
 
Three cases where DNA showed that the defendants were innocent but convicted anyway were the Norfolk Four, Amanda Knox, and Billy Wayne Cope.

That's not quite accurate, is it? Amanda Knox' DNA WAS found at the scene of the luminol highlighted footprint in the staged burglary room, mixed in with the victim's. This is a scientifically sound and accepted fact. There is also mixed DNA of Knox and the victim's blood in the bathroom. Knox was bleeding the same time as the victim.

Trying to link Knox to another case, doesn't cancel out the indisputable evidence against her and Sollecito.

Not forgetting jury nullification.

If we are going to discuss Amanda Knox we should probably start a separate thread about that case...
