From her prison cell, Knox watched news footage of Rudy Guede being arrested in Germany — a man she vaguely recognized as 'the basketball guy' from the neighborhood but had never befriended. Police had matched his fingerprints found in Meredith's blood to his existing criminal record for burglary. Knox recalls a flash of relief — finally, the real killer had been found, and surely this would end her nightmare. Instead, prosecutors performed what Knox calls a 'switcheroo,' releasing Lumumba at almost the same moment Guede was arrested to avoid admitting they had already imprisoned an innocent person. Rather than drop the case against Knox and Raffaele, Mignini built an even more elaborate theory: that Knox, Raffaele, and Guede had together committed the murder in some drug-fueled, sexually violent scenario — despite the two groups being strangers with entirely different forensic footprints at the scene.
Prosecutors released a photo of a sink drenched in red from a luminol chemical reaction, implying Knox lied about the blood she saw — but the actual sink had just a few drops. The prosecutor also claimed Knox bought bleach and scrubbed the bathroom, yet the post-visit photos showed it still covered in blood.
