Don't forget Meredith Kercher, court told

Amanda Knox should be convicted of murdering British student Meredith Kercher, whose tragic death was in danger of being overlooked, an Italian appeal court has been told.

Prosecutor Francesco Maresca, in his closing arguments in the third trial of Knox and co-defendant and former boyfriend Raffaele Sollecito, urged the panel of two professional judges and eight lay jurors to disregard Knox’s claims of innocence and her criticism of Italy’s judicial system as “failed, or fallible”.
