Knox blaming Patrick Lumumba for the murder.

Actually I consider that evidence of innocence on her part.

She was probably asked during 36 hours of badgering in crass Italian that if she didn't do it, who did -- and she just went through a list of persons that she and Kercher mutually knew and the prosecution then seized on this one.

Note that she didn't say anything that pointed to the guy who was eventually convicted of her murder that they claim that she was in league with.

If she was in on it with him she would at some point have given him up or said something generic about him like it could have been "some drifter whose name I don't know that she met that night in a bar".

That may be, Uncle Chip, although Amanda Knox says she gave up only one name, Lumbumba's, after being interrogated for 36 hours.

If she was in on it with [Rudy Guede] she would at some point have given him up or said something generic about him like it could have been "some drifter whose name I don't know that she met that night in a bar".

I think that's an excellent point, although I wouldn't agree that it's 100% certain that she would have given him up. Human nature is unpredictable. Giving up Rudy Guede may have implicated her, whereas naming Lumbumba wouldn't.

Again, I am NOT saying she's guilty.
