1. Facts are like fireflies, they are real, always there even when you can't see them, blinking in and out of view in ever changing configurations. puzzler | 12.07.07 - 6:30 pm |

2. This is the north side of Perugia, looking south-west. The old center of town, with the majority of historic monuments, is up and over the hillside to the left (off screen). This collection of slides takes us from the girls house, to RSs place, and onwards to RHGs

The shadow on the yellow building in the middle of the photo is the start of RSs street (Giuseppe Garibaldi) Everywhere in Perugia is uphill from the girls house. Although distances are short, you can easily get tired if youre running up and down with mops, bags of clothes to wash, cleaning liquids, cutlery, mobile phones or stolen money in your pockets.

Piazza Grimana), thats the tall Etruscan Arch on the other side of the plaza. The flag hanging in the middle, actually is hanging over the entrance to the University for Foreigners. Thats quite a narrow, neighbourhood street! Giuseppe Garibaldi street from RSs front door. It is clear that its a one-way street. RSs place on Giuseppe Garibaldi street.

5. Lets take a look up Corso Garibaldi from RSs place. Maybe well see someone we know.... If RHG werent in jail, we probably would see him, because his street alley comes up next... Via Canerino number 26. (In the sake of honesty, via del Canerino is U shaped, and the fastest way to RHGs door is to walk up another 15 meters before turning right.) RSs Prison Diary 20/11/2007: Today they have finally captured the real murderer of this completely unbelievable story. He is a 22 year-old Ivorian, they have found him in Germany. I saw Papa happy and smiling, but I for the moment am not 100% calm because I fear that he will invent strange things...

7. Who threw the Filomenas and Merediths phones onto the lawn in Sra. Elisabettas garden? They werent even covered up or under bushes. Round up the usual suspects. Both RS and RHG live just a few steps away, thanks to the door in the old city wall, which allows access to the Parco SantAngelo, so either one of them (or persons with them) could have made a furtive visit to the garden.

OR... Someone running down the country road Via del Bulagaio from the girls house, could ditch the phones and head for home through the door in the wall. How ironic that the phones – which in the end dont appear to contain key evidence – caused the police to visit the girls house and discover the crime.

9. ... (RHGs) lawyer Biscotti has therefore focused on a witness produced by the prosecution relating to a woman who lives in front of the house of the crime, and who investigators reported had heard a terrible scream on the night of the crime. "After barely one minute," he added, and after having heard footsteps running on gravel, more persons heard and saw one person flee towards Vía del Bulagaio and another on the iron stairwell adjacent to the carpark. We deem this to be a useful fact to the defense because the iron staircase, in addition to being very illuminated, is covered by a fixed surveillance camera. Surely it will have filmed the murderer that ran away. And he wont appear at all like my client. Rudy also said he had heard someone running on pavement and more people on the gravel, without yet knowing the testimony of that witness. - http://www.repubblica.it/2007/12/sezioni/cronaca/perugia-uccisa6/perugia-uccisa6/perugia-uccisa6.html http://www.repubblica.it/2007/12/sezioni/cronaca/perugia-uccisa6/perugia-uccisa6/perugia-uccisa6.html I dont want to reflect on the CCTV cameras, but on the relative isolation of the girls house. I have this terrible feeling that the screams, shouts and general commotion during the night came from the perpetrators as they ran in and out the house. And that the victims screams were never heard by anyone, given the old thick walls of the house, the orientation of her bedroom away from town and towards the valley, and the absorption of sound by the viaduct / road, and carpark.
