Transgender mafia turncoat claims brother killed Kercher

A Transgender mafia turncoat has accused her brother of the murder of British student Meredith Kercher in 2007 at the retrial of Amanda Knox and her Italian ex-boyfriend.

Luciano Aviello — who told the court that she wanted to be referred to as “Luciano Lucia” — served time with Knox’s co-accused, Raffaele Sollecito, in prison.
