So it's sort of bringing

everything into disrepute.

[Nick] I think at the end of the day,

you have to point the finger

at the police, really,

and the prosecution.

They made some really heinous errors

and they got fixated on some wild theories

that they were absolutely obsessed with.

I know people keep saying

"Trial by media, trial by media," but...

I don't buy that.

Maybe 'cause I'm a journalist so

I don't go for that, but... [chuckles]

I think now, looking back,

some of the information that came out

was just crazy, really,

and just completely made up.

But, hey, what are we supposed to do,

you know?

We are journalists and we are reporting

what we are being told.

It's not as if I can say,

"Right, hold on a minute.

I just wanna double check that myself

in some other way."

I mean, goodness knows how.

And then I let my rival get in there

first before me,

and then, hey, I've lost a scoop.

It doesn't work like that.

Not in the news game.

[Giuliano in Italian] During the trial

there was a woman who...

She said I was the devil.

[in English] "You are evil."

[in Italian] I can say

that I've made mistakes,

even things that I have had to confess,

but we are all between good and evil.

It's in our human nature.

Amanda and Sollecito,

if they are innocent,

I hope they're able to forget

the suffering that they've endured.

If they're guilty,

if earthly justice didn't get to them,

I hope they own their guilt,

because I know that life ends

with a final trial.

A trial with no appeals,

no second chances, and no revisions.

[boat engine humming]

[Amanda] I think people love monsters.

And so when they get the chance,

they want to see them.

It's people projecting their fears.

They want the reassurance that...

they know who the bad people are,

and it's not them.

So maybe that's what it is.

We're all afraid.

And fear makes people crazy.
