Giuliano Mignini: the Clown of Perugia, Prosecutor of Amanda Knox

Giuliano Mignini 
Giuliano Mignini is the Italian prosecutor in the Amanda Knox case.  He has a history of ruthless and unhinged behavior.  He is a bully who has frequently abused the power of his office to arrest, jail (without charges or trial), sue and otherwise harrass people he doesn't like.  Yesterday in court, Mignini made his closing arguments as to why the two innocent people that he framed should continue to waste their lives in jail, repeating many of the same lies and disproven accusations in his final argument.  Incredibly, even after the prosecution's DNA evidence was thrown out, even after their key witness was shown to be a lying heroin addict, they argued that Knox's sentence be increased to life imprisonment and six months in solitary confinement.

Today I am celebrating the worthless career of Giuliano Mignini, the corrupt prosecutor of Perugia, Italy who has personally disgraced the Italian system of justice with his bizarre theories of satanic rituals and sex games, prosecuting innocents on the basis of nothing but his wild imagination, personal biases and vendettas.

 Here is some of his history, from the website Injustice In Perugia:
Shortly after Amanda and Raffaele were convicted, Mignini himself, was convicted. You can read an update about Mignini's conviction at the bottom of this page. Mignini was convicted of prosecutorial misconduct for his abuses committed during the Monster of Florence case. He received a sixteen month sentence for abuse of office and bugging journalists in connection with the Francesco Narducci (Monster of Florence) case.

There was a series of murders that occurred in Italy during the 1970s and 80s. The perpetrator of the murders was given the name "Monster of Florence" by the press. Young couples who were parked in remote areas presumably to have sex, were shot and the bodies of the female victims were mutilated. Crime experts believed that the perpetrator was a Jack the Ripper type killer. Mignini got involved in the Monster of Florence case while investigating the death of Dr. Francesco Narducci, whose drowned corpse was found in a lake near Perugia. Mignini was far from an expert in these types of murders. He was a conspiracy theorist that liked to dream up wild fantasies. Mignini's theory was that the young couples were murdered so that their body parts could be used in rituals by satanic cults. Mignini believed that Dr. Narducci belonged to this cult, but he had become a security risk, so other cult members decided to kill him and make it look like an accident or suicide.

His theory was challenged by author Douglas Preston and his writing partner Mario Spezi. Douglas and Mario decided to write a book about the Monster of Florence. They both agreed that Mignini's theory was ridiculous. Mario Spezi stated so publicly. Mignini didn't like being challenged. Mignini had Spezi's office ransacked and he bugged his car. Mignini interrogated Preston and forced him to leave the country. Mignini arrested Spezi and threw him in jail. After three weeks in solitary confinement for no reason whatsoever, a judge ordered Spezi released despite Mignini's objections.

Mario Spezi's arrest drew the attention of CPJ, The Committee to Protect Journalists, an independent, nonpartisan organization dedicated to defending the rights of journalists worldwide. CPJ released a letter in regard to Spezi's arrest.

Douglas Preston was interrogated by Mignini. He was accused of being an accessory to murder involving the Monster of Florence case. He was made to believe that he would never see his family again. He thought he was going to an Italian prison. Preston says that his knees were shaking. He could hardly walk when he stood up. He was terrified. Mignini successfully forced Preston to leave Italy. Read all about the Monster of Florence case from Douglas Preston: A true crime story By Douglas Preston.

Mignini attacks anyone who disagrees with him. Spezi and Preston simply disagreed with Mignini's view of a crime. Mignini tried to destroy their lives. Mignini's tactics didn't change during Amanda and Raffaele's trial. Once again, Mignini attacked his critics. He has filed defamation charges against anyone that has publicly dared to disagree with him. Mignini has used these lawsuits to embarrass Amanda & Raffaele. He has attacked their families and their lawyers. He has used these lawsuits in an attempt to put fear into the minds of journalists in hopes to silence them. Here is a list of Mignini's lawsuits. The count stands at twelve. Who's next?
Considering Mignini's ruthless behavior and extreme abuse of power, one might legitimately ask:  why is this jackass still operating within the Italian justice system?  He should be fired and begin serving the jail sentence for his recent conviction.

I have literally just finished reading the monster of Florence by Mario spezi and Douglas Preston and absolutely astounded by Miginis behavior it is a great injustice to all of Miginis victims that he is able to remain in office the biggest victim Meredith kercher for while Migini is allowed to Perdue his witch hunt the real killer walks free.

Stogie said...

Jayne, the real killer in the Knox case was Rudy Guede, and he's in prison for only 16 years.

Jayne said...

There is evidence to support from the injuries on Meredith that there was more than one assailant so thanks to the forensic bungling of the scene someone else has walked free!

Stogie said...

Jayne, I doubt very much that anyone else was involved. Guede always acted alone in burglarizing other residences and offices -- do you really think this creep would want to share the booty with anyone else?

I think this theory of multiple assailants was pushed by the prosecution in order to frame Amanda and Raffaele. There is nothing to it.

Dave said...

Was it pushed by the prosecution or did Guede's story of the other assailant have something to do with it? He claimed to have been in the bathroom while the "real killer" was committing the murder, but never specified who that real killer was... so Mignini pressured him to identify Amanda and Raffaele.

Michelle Moore said...

I think its funny that in one of Rudy's testimonies he claimed to have heard the doorbell ring, yet somehow he wasn't able to actually hear the loud painful screams of a girl being murdered...whatever...what a liar. And Mignini needs to spend some time in Jail and never be allowed to do this to innocent people like Mario Spezi, Doug Preston, Amanda Knox, and Raffaele Sollecito! He needs to go to a less "far right sect" church, too. He got his info from a psychic...crazy psychopath.

Stogie said...

This man is a disgrace to Italy! He should be imprisoned! At least get him out of office!

Stogie said...

i just want to say that the mans whos dna and sperm that was inside meradith is the killer shame on italy for allowing a bully corrupt prosecutor to make u think otherwise poor amanda why dont you listen to the dead girl who basically told you by having the mans dna in and on her my gosh you people are ignorant!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Stogie said...

where is this guy's office? does anyone know the address to his office? i would like to write him a strongly-worded letter at the very least.

Stogie said...

I hope some people with influence over Amanda Knox convince her to stay at home for the upcoming Supreme Court trial in Italy. Why let this gigantic bully get another shot?

Stogie said...

I don't think Amanda Knox is planning to attend the trial. I agree, she would be crazy to do so, and give Italy's corrupt judiciary another chance to imprison her...for nothing.

Stogie said...

he'll be out on work release next year. :(

Luigi, get your ass back in the kitchen and make some pizza. That's the only thing of value Italy has produced in the past several centuries.

Stogie said...

Stogie said...

You are incapable of thinking, like most good fascisti; you simply follow the fascist leader blindly and without intelligence.

EVIL guiliano mignini and police of italy a DISGRACE to all

Gorros said...

No, there is absolutely no evidence that more than one person killed Meredith. If The killer threatened Meredith with a weapon he did not need much strength to rape her. Such cases are common in Sweden (where I live) but it seems that Italian judges are not only corrupt, they are also very stupid!
