You are listening to the Robert report, putting the true back in true crime.

From New York City, Roberta Glass is now on the record.

Hello, everyone. I hope you had a good weekend.

I wanted to talk today about a few things.

One, I wanted to talk about this idea that everybody lies except Amanda Knox and the people who think she's guilty are so unfair to her.

And everyone who accused her or thinks she's guilty is just too proud to admit that we're all wrong.

And in fact, there was no evidence, no evidence at all against her.

And that this was all a vibe.

Right.

So I found an interesting thing. I've been reading a death in Italy by John Follion, he who attended the trial and really enjoying it. And he talks about, he quotes Amanda in her prison diary.

And I just wanted to read it really quickly.

Okay, so she writes,

To all those who believed I was a criminal mastermind and a murderer. I forgive you. Oh, thank you, Amanda.

That's me. Not Amanda, by the way. I forgive you, she writes. How could you have known?

You believe the recycled rumors of newspapers. Heck, if I were in your shoes, I would do the same thing.

So I think that's an interesting admission from Amanda. So is she saying that those who read about the evidence against her in this case,

you think you come to a conclusion of guilt that she would do the same thing,

or is she saying something else?

Let me know in the comments what you think.

But before I get to the other stuff I have for you, let's take a break and I'll meet you on the other side.
