Showing Regret
The lead investigators noted that the murderer showed regret and perhaps, never murdered anyone before. They concluded this because three white towels were used to staunch the victim’s bleeding. In addition, the murderer placed the bedspread over her body. Then, this criminal ran out the front door, leaving behind bloody shoe prints. However, Rudy Guede did admit to grabbing those towels to stop her bleeding when he ran into her room after hearing her screams and seeing someone slashed her throat.
Not Highly Trained
When Romanelli and Knox phoned the police, they called the local carabinieri. However, the officers who arrived were postal police who typically looked into Internet fraud or minor theft. Thus, the police who came across Kercher’s body were thrown for a loop.
