Nancy Grace on Amanda Knox Verdict: Casey Anthony Redux!

by at .

Nancy Grace doesn't hold back.

The news pundit and Dancing With the Stars competitor was not among the many people lauding the Amanda Knox verdict yesterday. Grace's thoughts on Knox's conviction (in the 2007 slaying of Meredith Kercher) being overturned?

"I think that it was a miscarriage of justice," she said.

Amanda Knox, Nancy Grace

Nancy Grace does not hold back when it comes to her favorite cash cows.

"I only hope Ms. Knox makes something of her life because she's certainly been given a second chance. Very few people are given the chance she has been given."

Knox, a University of Washington student who had been studying in Perugia, Italy, faced a sentence of 26 years in prison after being convicted of murder in 2009.

Yesterday, an appeals court overturned the 24-year-old's conviction.

Grace did not directly link the Amanda Knox trial to that of another infamous case in which a young woman, Casey Anthony, was controversially cleared of murder.

She didn't have to. Grace famously said "the devil is dancing tonight" upon the release of Anthony, who she ripped frequently and derisively referred to as "Tot Mom."

There are some parallels between the women, but unlike the Casey Anthony case, wasn't Knox cleared, at least in part, because of an independent review of DNA evidence? Which made the case against her less incriminating?

What do you think? Is Nancy on point? Off base? Running her yap for ratings? Should she just stick to Dancing With the Stars nipple slips and call it a day?

You tell us: Amanda Knox is ...

    Nancy Grace is a nobody, she obviously wasn't following the case, or she really doesn't know anything thing about criminal justice. Amanda Knox is not guilty.

    Amanda is guilty as all hell! The girl can join Casey Anthony and Gary Giordano with getting away with murder. Blood was found on a knife in her boyfriends apartment. They bought bleach, why?, while her boy friend was being questioned by police, she was outside doing hand flips. Wouldn't you have been upset that your roommate was murdered. They weren't close friends at all. Plus other facts that send up a red flag. Murderer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I want to start by stating that I am not a fan of Nancy Grace. In fact, I cannot stand the woman. I think that she is just another Media Whore who acts as a self-appointed Media Vigilante who would sell her soul for a story. In the case of Ms Knox, there has to be serious doubt as to her innocence, because SHE LIED, accusing an innocent man of having a part in the murder;was convicted of that, and given 3 years, time served. She had been locked up for 4 years. In our Court system, if you lie about an important fact in a case, your entire testimony can be discounted. WHY DID SHE LIE and implicate A Black Man? I guess she forgot she was not in the good old USA. This important fact leads credence to Nancy Grace's suspicion that there may have been a miscarriage of justice. Remember; Money Talks everywhere.

    Reading the information on this case, it looks like Amanda left her boyfriend at 9:00p.m. that evening and returned to his apartment at 1:00 a.m. It was also known that Her boyfriend purchased a bottle of bleach at a store early that morning. It looks like they covered for each other. Amanda had something to do with her roommates death, but she is not telling. Especially if she took a shower and didn't question the blood on the floor. Why did her boyfriend buy the bleach? Why did she leave at 9:00 p.m. and return at 1:00 a.m.? Lots of gaps, I can see why the Italians are so upset.
