Mez: MORE MANGA & CARTOONS (5#) -

The Meredith Kercher Murder Case -

We still do not have any of the Manga images or graphic replicas of the Manga pages which were used by the prosecutor in his summation, according to Nick Pisa.

The best we can do at this point is an article reported by Erica Pontini at La Nazione. The scenes under focus are from the Manga called Blood: The Last Vampire which allegedly show a naked girl on the floor similar to the position of Meredith Kercher's body when discovered. Beside the Manga corpse, according to Pontini's verbal description, are three people watching; among these three is a female who is sitting (somehow) in or on an armchair, laughing.

Earlier, as I recall, it had been reported that
this Manga was found on Sollecito's bedside table.

Random coincidence? Or inspiration?

Why the images are not being shown to the public is a mystery. Is there a copyright problem? Who owns the copyright - the publisher and/or the artist or author? Have they not been contacted? Thus far, we have only secondhand information about this. Perhaps, during the real upcoming trial, they will release comparative images.

Defense for Sollecito presented today. And once again, cartoons were being discussed! Sollecito couldn't have killed Meredith Kercher, because, according to his new alibi, Sollecito was on the Internet, downloading a cartoon at the time Kercher was killed. I didn't come across any details as to which cartoon it was.
