After waiting a year, hometown girl Amanda Knox and her defense team got bad news today. Judge Paolo Micheli indicted Knox and her ex-boyfriend Raffaele Sollecito in the murder of Meredith Kercher, and the trial will start December 4. Further, the Seattle Times tells us, "A third suspect, Rudy Hermann Guede of Ivory Coast, was sentenced to 30 years in jail after his defense requested a fast-track trial, said the lawyer for the victim's family Francesco Maresca." That would seem to a) indicate the judge found the prosecution's story compelling, and b) provide compelling reason why you should never, never ask to have your trial fast-tracked.
