AN EXPLOSIVE revelation has come out of Amanda 'Foxy Knoxy' Knox's appeal in Italy: the DNA evidence used to convict her was "unreliable" and likely contaminated, an Italian newspaper reported Wednesday. The leaked review will likely be made public Thursday.
The report was ordered by the judge hearing Knox's appeal. The 23-year-old Seattle native was convicted along with two men in the sickening slaying of her roommate, pretty Brit student Meredith Kercher. It was believed the murder was the result of a drug-fuelled sex game gone awry.
According to the paper: The original case was told Knox's DNA was found on the knife believed to be the murder weapon and traces of Kercher's DNA was found on the blade.
But the report found that the genetic profile attributed to Meredith may not be usable. It also says that traces of beau Rafael Sollecito's DNA found on the clasp of Kercher's bra strap could have come from atmospheric contamination and pointed to mistakes in the tests.
Foxy Knoxy is serving 25 years in the Casa Del Jailo for the crime. She has denied involvement, as has Sollecito. MORE ON FOXY KNOXY
