It also looks like she was slapped around and intimidated by the police during interrogation. The DNA evidence is apparently slim and questionable. I have done some reading on it, and from what I can tell it is very unlikely she and her boyfriend were involved. Lots of evidence Rudy Guede was involved, and virtually none for the other two. I have trouble believing that in such a violent action that only Guede's traces would be found.
One writeup I saw, I think from the Daily Telegraph in London, said that the prosecutor had already declared the case closed before Guede came on the scene. At that point he should have started again with the investigation of Knox, but because of all the publicity she'd already been tried in the court of public opinion. The article pointed out that in Britain the prosecutors don't make a case in advance, in public. (Much as in the U.S.) The case against Knox almost certainly should have been dropped once they found Guede.
