Judge Alessandro Nencini Denies Impropriety Over Knox Trial Comments
Florence Judge Alessandro Nencini, who presided over a judicial panel in the murder trial of Amanda Knox and Raffaele Sollecito, has been accused of impropriety over comments he made to the media about the case.
The Associated Press reports defense lawyers for Sollecito called Nencini’s comments to the media about the defense strategy a “serious” breach and said they will request disciplinary action from the magistrate’s governing body, the Judicial Ministry, and Italy’s supreme Court of Casssation.
Members of the magistrate’s governing body said Nencini violated the secrecy of deliberations and made comments that suggest “partiality.” They will request an inquiry.
