This story is about a girl who was accused of killing her roommate while she was studying abroad in Italy. This is a very interesting story to me because last semester I was studying abroad when all the media was focused on this murder. Even in June this trail is still going on. I am really surprised at how the Italian government and police force is handling the trial. From everything I have read or watched it seems like their police force is disorganized and their legal system is corrupt.
I read in the Economist that their Prim Minister has had many instances of corruption and breaking the law. So maybe the lack of order and justice come from their leader.
But I don't want to seem bias, because the girl on trial looks very guilty by just considering the circumstances. For example, she claimed she spent the night of the murder at her boyfriend’s house. The next day she came home she said her door was open and there was dried blood on the carpet. If that was me a few alarm bells would be going on in my head that something is wrong. Or at least I would go talk to my roommate to see why the door was left open.
Either way you look at the story, it is a very interesting one. I also like the national and international aspect to it, because it’s happening in Italy but the girl is American.

"If that was me a few alarm bells would be going on in my head that something is wrong. Or at least I would go talk to my roommate to see why the door was left open." THIS SEGMENT DOESN'T MAKE SENSE UNLESS YOU EXPLAIN WHAT MEREDITH CLAIMS SHE DID WHEN SHE DISCOVERED THE DRIED BLOOD.
