You realize, of course, that the "confession" was:

1. Typed out by the police.
2. Made up of suggested scenarios the police wanted Knox to imagine.
3. Carried out when she was interrogated as a witness, not a suspect.
4. Carried out over a period of 50 hours.
5. Carried out with the assistance of 12 different police interrogators.
6. Carried out without allowing Knox a lawyer.
7. Carried out in Italian without the benefit of a translator.
8. Made without the interrogation being recorded, as required by Italian law.
9. Never a statement that she "did it", only that she was there.
10. Completely recanted by Knox shortly after signing.
11. Absolutely illegal under Italian law.
12. Thrown out by the Italian courts.
13. Never admitted into evidence at her criminal trial.

But, it was widely published in the Italian and British press and was used in the liable trial filed by Patrik Lamumba so the public got a large dose of non-evidence.
