Amanda Knox: With Parents Like Hers Who Needs Enemies?

by | 16th, February 2011

AMANDA Knox and Meredith Kercher: “What is it Americans have against the Italians?” asks one Anorak reader.

They consistently display nothing but contempt for them and their country, from private individuals to the US government.

The Knox parents, Curt Knox and Edda Mellas, have been ordered to stand trial in Perugia for libelling the police in a Sunday Times interview. They said their daughter-  in jail for murdering Kercher – was abused by police.

Their trial is due to begin on 4 July.

The charge stems from an interview they gave to Britain’s two years ago in which they said their daughter had – after arrest – been refused an interpreter, deprived of food and water, and physically and verbally abused by the police.

The couple have claimed that  Knox was hit and told that she could not ask for a lawyer.

Knox, 23, is currently appealing against her conviction in 2009 for the murder of Ms Kercher. Anyone think her parents’ trail  is helping..?
