Remember all the talk about a second knife, as in the bloody outline of a presumed knife on the victim's bedsheets didn't match the knife plucked from Raffaele's kitchen drawer?

Except that all of a sudden at the 2013 re-trial at the Appeals Court level in Florence, then-prosecutor Crini simply announced that that knife plucked from Raffaele's suddenly was a match - 6 years later. Crini offered no forensics to back this up, simply announced it.

Which also brings back memories of why Frank Sfarzo, in his English-language blog "Perugia Shock", switched his views on guilt.

He'd gone down to the cottage, and asked a cop why they were not searching the vast tree'd area below and to the ENE. The answer which surprised Sfarzo was, "We already have a knife."

Then it became apparent that that knife matched nothing at the crime scene, not the wounds and not the bloody outline on the sheet. (If nothing else, this belongs to the long list of things which the 2015 exonerating court cited as "investigative amnesia".)

Sfarzo's trademark snark in Perugia Shock shifted from the two accused to the prosecution and police. To Sfarzo, the lazy incompetent police weren't even investigating the case. Michael Winterbottom portrayed this in his 2014 feature film, "Face of an Angel". In the film, W. even had Barbie Nadeau's character confess that all the journalists had had to read Sfarzo's blog each day just to keep up.

All of this was typical of the way the various prosecutors and convicting courts had had to move things around as factoids fell apart, to still justify convicting.
