“You don’t have to be a psychopath to wrongly convict somebody.” | Amanda Knox @pescagist
“You don’t have to be a psychopath to wrongly convict somebody.” | Amanda Knox  @pescagist
Uploaded September 2025 | Updated September 2026, 3 weeks ago
Knox recounts confronting prosecutor Giuliano Mignini and explores how certainty, incentive structures, and “alternate realities” turned her story into a sprawling international conspiracy. She parses the feedback loop between media and Italian justice, and why today’s true-crime-savvy public might have questioned the case sooner. Also: the 21 point Gaza peace plan that hasn't been faxed to Hamas, and a Spiel on why the Comey indictment reads as impermissible lawfare, not a good-faith prosecution.
