“Amanda and Raffaele have not lied.”

I have heard this schpiel so many times from Amanda Knox’s supporters or (Amandist’s)

Firstly, everyone lies. Let’s start with statistics.

In a survey, 75% of the participants admitted to lying between 0 to 2 times daily. During communication, 7% of it consisted of lying but only 10% were major lies. 90% of the time, the lies were trivial.

We know Amanda lied because she lied about smoking weed.

The Initial Denial: Early in the 2007 investigation, Knox lied to police and claimed they hadn't smoked pot, stating she covered for her roommates so they would not face professional consequences or lose their housing/jobs.
The Admission: Knox later acknowledged that she and Sollecito had smoked a marijuana joint and watched a movie at his flat on the night of November 1, 2007, which formed part of her contested alibi.

So there. Amanda Knox is likely part of the 75% who lies daily. Why? Because she lied point blank about the weed. That’s the first thing, she knowingly lied in a police investigation about a murder, to the police.

So, what other lies do we have?

Off the top of my head.

⁠1. Amanda lied about her selective memory of that night. Her memory is razor sharp in her biographies, but terrible that night. Only that night. It’s the only night she ever has memory issues according to her two books, countless interviews, yada yada.
2. ⁠Amanda lied about where she was the night of the murder. First stating she was at home, then stating she went to the basketball courts with Patrick, then she saw Patrick murder Meredith, then that she was back at home. We know she is lying here. The question is which statement is a lie and why.
3. ⁠Amanda lied about the bathmat sashay. How do we know? Because in some statements, she bathmat sashays out and back, in some she bathmatsashays only out, in some she doesn’t at all. We know she’s lying.
4. ⁠Amanda and Raffaele lied about the state of Filomena’s door and who opened it.
5. ⁠Amanda and Raffaele lied about what time they woke up that morning.
6. Raffaele lied about his alibi.

We know they are lying.

So what else are they lying about? Anyone who says Amanda has not lied is in denial of case facts. It’s proven the moment she admits she lied about smoking about weed.

The average person lies, is a liar, lies twice a day. So on average, given Amanda already lied to the police once, and given these statements are clearly not true, it’s proven she had the capacity to lie, did lie, and likely according to statistics would lie more than once a day at least.

If Amanda lied about any other part of the case, would it change the people’s mind who believe that she’s innocent?

Because she did.

As Meredith Kercher died 6886 days ago, the average amount of lies Amanda has told if she falls within the average person’s statistics is 13732 lies.

Since she has dedicated most of her time to speaking about the case, nor is she known for telling the truth about anything, it’s not unreasonable to speculate Amanda has told thousands of lies about her involvement in the murder of Meredith Kercher.

On the morning of July 8, 1943, Sir Harry Oakes was found dead inside Westbourne, his sprawling estate in Nassau, Bahamas.

Oakes wasn't an obscure victim. He had made an enormous fortune in Canadian gold mining, became one of the wealthiest men of his era, and had been granted a British baronetcy.

And his murder scene was.. bizarre.

Oakes had been violently struck in his bedroom. An attempt apparently had been made to burn his body, and feathers from a torn pillow were scattered around him. Some later accounts turned the feathers into stories about ritual or occult activity, but there's no solid evidence that his murder was actually ritualistic.

Even without that embellishment, what happened next is strange enough.

The Bahamas was a British colony at the time, and its governor was the Duke of Windsor- the former King Edward VIII, who had abdicated the throne several years earlier.

Rather than leaving the investigation solely to local authorities, two detectives from Miami became involved.

Suspicion quickly fell on Oakes's son in law, Alfred de Marigny, whose relationship with Oakes had reportedly been strained. Investigators claimed a fingerprint belonging to de Marigny had been found on a screen near Oakes's bed.

He was charged with murder.

But at trial, the fingerprint evidence became a major problem for the prosecution. The defense challenged whether the print could actually have been lifted from the surface investigators claimed it came from.

De Marigny was acquitted.

Over the decades, theories surrounding Oakes's death have implicated everyone from people in his immediate social and business circle to organized crime figures. Other writers have suggested that the strange condition of the bedroom was deliberately staged.

There have even been theories involving wartime political intrigue because of the Duke of Windsor's presence in the Bahamas.

None of them has resulted in a conviction.

On Sunday August 12, 2001, 17-year-old Globe High School student Paul David Sanders left his father’s home near Val Vista and Broadway in Mesa, Arizona to drive back to his grandmother’s home in Globe. He was driving his father’s pickup. It would be the last time he would be seen alive.

Later that evening, the truck was caught in a high-speed chase on the US 77. Police attempted to pull the truck over for speeding, but the driver was able to evade authorities. 

Arizona Department of Public Safety and Pima County Sheriff’s Office collaborated on an interagency chase of the vehicle which was later found near the Santa Catalina Mountains near Tucson, some two hours south of Mesa.

All of Paul’s belongings were found in the truck but police considered Paul a runaway and refused to conduct forensic examination and processing on the vehicle. 

Paul’s father Robert Brewer told Fox 10 News that he did not believe Paul was the driver of the truck due to the skill level the driver had used to evade authorities. He has since divorced Paul’s stepmother Lori Beavers. 

Robert and Lori were vacationing in Las Vegas when Paul disappeared.

Paul was originally from Missouri and had only moved to Arizona for the 2000-2001 school year. He lived with his grandmother in Globe and went by the name “Dave Brewer” while at Globe High School.

Paul had moved in with his father and stepmother earlier in the summer of 2001.

His friend circle in Arizona primarily consisted of his fellow classmates at Globe High School. Many students at GHS were from the nearby San Carlos Indian Reservation.

Paul’s mother Angela Rice committed suicide in 2020 over the grief of her son’s disappearance. 

Paul was 5’6 and weighed 150 pounds with brown hair and hazel eyes. He had the name “Hernandez” tattooed across his back which was a tribute to his grandfather. 

His family and friends insist he would never have abandoned them, and he met with foul play. 

The case is being investigated by Mesa PD.
