New wrinkle could prolong Amanda Knox trial for months

[rsmith6621]

PERUGIA, Italy - The murder trial of Seattle student Amanda Knox could stretch on for several more months under a scenario that's considered increasingly likely by observers of the trial.

The trial resumes Monday, after a two-month summer break. Knox, along with her ex-boyfriend, Raffaele Sollecito, and a third person are accused of killing and sexually assaulting Knox's British roommate Meredith Kercher in November 2007.

But there have been so many claims and counter-claims by the defense and prosecution over the DNA evidence in the case that the judge may opt to bring in an outside independent DNA expert to do a third evaluation.

If that happens, the outside expert must be given plenty of time to review the evidence, which will greatly prolong the trial, says ABC News report Ann Wise, who has covered the trial since the beginning.

I think it is time for Secretary Clinton to intervene in this matter....this trial goes on for two days and then of two months and so on......Time for SOS Clinton to call their bluff and either get this over or release her.....this is outrageous not justice
