The United States and Italy have extremely different methods of conducting criminal trials. In the United States, a defendant 's guilt must be established beyond a reasonable doubt for them to be found guilty of a criminal act. The entire burden of proof lies on the prosecutor who has to prove the defendant 's guilt by the presentation of incriminating evidence. If there is any doubt at the end of the trial, then the verdict must be "not guilty." Italy, on the other hand, handles criminal matters in a much more unethical manner. On November 2, 2007, Amanda Knox was found guilty of both murder and sexual violence of Meredith Kercher and sentenced to 26 years in a Perugian prison. If the Amanda Knox trial was held in the United States, using America 's rules of evidence, then the outcome of the trial would have been in favor of Amanda Knox.…
