Knox juror: Prosecution case based on 'conjecture'

One of the jurors who overturned Amanda Knox’s murder conviction has said he was never convinced by the “conjecture” of the prosecution’s case and that he believed the US student and her co-defendant simply did not kill her British roommate.

Mauro Chialli was one of eight jurors who on Monday ordered Knox and her ex-boyfriend Raffaele Sollecito freed after acquitting them of charges that they sexually assaulted and murdered Meredith Kercher in 2007. Knox returned home to Seattle on Tuesday, and Sollecito to his home in southern Italy.
