Retired Forensic Engineer Hendry believes there was gross misinterpretation of the blood evidence by the Scientific Police
Image via WikipediaRetired forensic engineer Ron Hendry has stated in a lengthy analysis of the crime scene his view that there was "gross misinterpretation of blood evidence by the scientific police" involved in the murder case of British student Meredith Kercher in November 2007, Perugia, Italy. Hendry, who for 28 years worked as a forensic accident reconstruction professional, believes that police mistook blood drippings which they themselves had pushed under the bed during their investigation, for ones which Amanda Knox and Raffaele Sollection - both convicted for the murder, along with Ivory Coast immigrant Rudy Guede - had attempted to hide.
From an article by Hendry:
In his careful analysis, Hendry has determined that the police themselves made these drippings during the moving of clothes and shoes under the bed and discovered them later in their subsequent removal of the items from underneath the bed.

Amanda Knox: New hope as DNA tests on knife 'proved insufficient to convict her' | Mail Online
The examinations carried out are part of a review granted earlier this year by an appeal court judge and appear to support defence team's insistence that the original forensic evidence was badly handled.
Knox, 23, is serving 26 years for the brutal sex murder of British student Meredith Kercher, 21, who was found semi-naked with her throat cut in her bedroom in the house they shared.
Key to her conviction was a 12inch kitchen knife on which the original trial was told DNA from Knox was found on the handle and genetic material, but not blood, belonging to Meredith was found on the blade.
Earlier this year a judge in Perugia, where the murder took place, authorised an independent review by two forensic experts from Rome's La Sapienza university."Read more: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1369503/Amanda-Knox-New-hope-DNA-tests-knife-proved-insufficient-convict-her.html#ixzz1HWUZSl3m
