Hefty Cost of Freedon
I just ran across this news story
​
Page Not Found: 404 Not Found -
​
quote:
Knox's first challenge will be repaying the more than $1 million in legal debts her family piled up in the past two years.
​
Her parents each took out second mortgages and drained retirement accounts to pay for her lawyers. Elizabeth Huff, Knox's grandmother, took out a $250,000 loan to help pay bills, a burden she welcomed.
​
Holy shit that sucks. All that debt and she was innocent. That's not fair at all.

Re: Hefty Cost of Freedon
Anti-Americanism runs so deep, that Europeans will strike against us without evidence, it makes them feel better to take us down one innocent at a time.
​
​
I'll have to remove Italy from the places to visit list.
​
I don't have the link handy, but a different news article I was reading yesterday quoted her saying that she hoped to visit Italy again in the future
​
Fuck that! I wouldn't if I was her...

Re: Hefty Cost of Freedon
This case has been about Anti-Americanism from the start.
​
How do you know? I've just came in at the end, I hadn't even heard about it until I saw news of the appeal.
​
...and tell everyone I am from Canada (they can't tell the difference).

Re: Hefty Cost of Freedon
See, I can't really understand this attitude. If you were wrongly convicted in the States, would you emigrate once you won your appeal?
​
Nope, but I'd avoid that particular state... hell, I avoid particular cities.
​
Not going somewhere is a lot easier than leaving somewhere, dontcha think? Its really easy for me to not go to Italy, emigrating would be a bitch.
​
I imagine Italy means more to her than simply 'the place where I went to jail'.
​
Yeah, that makes sense. I'd pretty much just be holding a grudge.
