Guede speaks

First interview. He claims that Knox was present at the murder. Probably should be included in this article. 98.169.136.119 (talk) 23:44, 22 January 2016 (UTC)

It's already noted that he initially denied she was there (on the police tape) then changed his story on that point. Jas88 (talk) 00:44, 20 December 2024 (UTC)

links to original case files and documentsMarcellopenso (talk) 00:07, 13 January 2020 (UTC)

Hi fellow Wikipedians,

I have posted online 1000s of documents related to the murder case including police investigation reports, prosecutor files, defense team reports, courtroom testimony, court motivation reports, etc. The website is http:/www.themurderofmeredithkercher.net. Is it okay to put links to some of the original case files?

There are also a few minor mistakes in the otherwise good article (as one example: Meredith didn't have seven knife wounds; she suffered two major knife wounds and 10 minor ones and at least 39 distinct bruises.) I can provide links to the original autopsy report and a few of the follow-up consultant reports. Any report, presentation, photo or video the website has been censored out of respect for the Kercher family.

I'm not sure if linking to 'original' case documents is acceptable in this particular case.

Thanks for your efforts! Marcello

0mtwb9gd5wx, the WP:ONUS is on you to gather consensus for your additions by starting a talk page discussion. You can't just keep adding your preferred version after others have removed it, no matter how many warnings you deliver to the people opposing you. When there is a dispute about article content, the disputed material stays out until consensus is clear to put it in. Your next move is to argue your case on the talk page. Binksternet (talk) 23:27, 14 August 2021 (UTC)

Lard AlmightyBinksternet , I have not added my preferred version, I corrected deficiencies, and added improvements based on similar articles. The complaints you made were you made were implemented, yet Lard AlmightyBinksternet still deleted a string of all my edits with etc as your only reason. Why dont you complain about each delete separately ? 0mtwb9gd5wx (talk) 23:56, 14 August 2021 (UTC)

Per WP:ONUS, you can make a case for your changes right here. You can talk about each of your changes separately if you wish. Binksternet (talk) 00:00, 15 August 2021 (UTC)

The nearby link to Corte d'Assise is the better target for the reader. It's more relevant to this bio. Binksternet (talk) 01:28, 15 August 2021 (UTC)

Suspect arrests

Can somebody add a paragraph about the arrests of the suspects? It would be a great addition just after the "Discovery of the body" section. 199.102.241.68 (talk) 17:41, 25 October 2021 (UTC) Oops. Please disregard my previous post. The info is already in the article. Sorry. 199.102.241.68 (talk) 17:43, 25 October 2021 (UTC)

"Patrick Lumumba" redirects here

What about we get rid of the redirect link here? He is a minor character in the whole story. And having a reference to him at the top - even as a redirect notice - provides some level of bias to the article. On the other hand the other Lumumba, the congolese politician, is a prominent character and there's no doubt which of the two bearing this surname is notable in Misplaced Pages. --2001:B07:AE5:D54B:A184:822D:FEF3:4AA8 (talk) 11:40, 9 February 2022 (UTC)

A bit late to the party, but the politician is actually called Patrice Lumumba, and generic Lumumba redirects to the politician. Lectonar (talk) 11:16, 15 July 2024 (UTC)
