So there is still no actual evidence to suggest a police conspiracy, in particular no evidence that the ILE were even aware of Lumumba before examining Knox's phone on Nov 5.
The conspiracy theory seems to be entirely based on the assumption that because it is obvious that "Amanda is innocent", the only way to explain the evidence against her is that she must have been framed. This is classic CT reasoning of course.
'Never ascribe to conspiracy that which can be explained by sheer incompetence.'
In fitting fashion, the police in Perugia were incompetent enough for both sides! They even came up with their own conspiracy theories!
On a serious note, do you realize that the only reason to think Amanda is guilty of
anything comes from the three statements I posted last page? They go from those three statements to Amanda and Raffaele raping and murdering Meredith Kercher without any evidence to get them there. Bra clasps and 'murder knives' that never left the drawer that night get them nothing, being as adding a few picograms to nothing still leaves them with basically
nothing. All the stains on the floor (outside Rudy's) amount to zilch, have you seen the
diagram?
'Attributing' those luminol splotches (especially)to
anyone is just an indication of how desperate they were to find anything at all 'suspicious' in that house. Amanda's DNA in her own bathroom is probably the least surprising 'find' in the whole case. None of that adds up to anything resembling a coherent theory of the murder, as odds are extreme
most of it has nothing to do with the crime. They're just stains on the floor, revealed with luminol, that tested negative for blood. It's the sort of thing that wouldn't ever get used unless the case was really weak, which is why a lot of it they didn't even bother with until they were unexpectedly forced to return 46 days later. Then they threw the whole floor at both of them.
Why did they do this? They didn't have much of a case. They made a poor decision initially and kept fooling themselves with confirmation bias as they ran out of evidence. The reason they initially decided Amanda Knox and Raffaele Sollecito had anything to do with raping and murdering Meredith Kercher is (probably) because Raffaele went in there stoned and quickly acceded to the police version of events and then they put the screws to Amanda all night long until they freaked her out and momentarily convinced her she must have been at the scene of the crime when it happened, after all they had 'hard evidence' of her being there.
