Asked about her Foxy Knoxy nickname he said It was not a name

Summary: Asked about her Foxy Knoxy nickname he said It was not a name she called herself I never called her Foxy Knoxy I have never heard any of my friends call her Foxy Knoxy Amanda Knox told him she was getting on with her housemates and having the time of her life in Italy the close friend has told an Italian court Giving a character reference to the murder trial Andrew Seliber 22 a former roommate of Ms Knox from Boston Massachusetts said he met Ms Knox at the University of Washington where they shared a dormitory During Miss Knox s testimony there were a few I can t remembers one or two heated exchanges but not much more But it can also be the lesser of two evils especially if a stint in the witness box leads to inconsistencies in stories loss of temper inability to remember or worse an inadvertent admission of guilt Why after all would you not want to give your side of the story if you are innocent Confident It is their right to remain silent but that may appear to some jurors and judges like an implicit admission of guilt There is a history of cases where the accused have been ambushed by clever lawyers and made to look more guilty than if they had said nothing in the first place Courtrooms everywhere are littered with the ghosts of ghastly ill conceived performances by defendants Such a tactic was always going to be risky
