Perugia, Italy, Sept 26: The lawyer of a Perugia bar owner accused by Amanda Knox of killing her roommate has called the American student a sex-loving she-devil who knowingly lied to police to sidetrack the investigation.
Early in the probe, Knox accused Diya “Patrick” Lumumba of killing Meredith Kercher, a Briton who shared an apartment with Knox. Lumumba was briefly jailed, but later cleared.
Knox has been convicted of the 2007 murder and sentenced to 26 years in prison. She denies wrongdoing and is appealing.
Lumumba's lawyer Carlo Pacelli told the appeals court Monday that Knox had a double soul: The clean-faced woman sitting before judges, and the she-devil who loves “wild sex.”
Knox maintains police pressure led her to accuse Lumumba. AP
