Judge Says American Co-Ed Killed to Satisfy ‘Sexual Instincts’
Slaying of Meredith Kercher
ROME — An Italian judge wrote in a decision that a British student killed in Perugia was the victim of a plan by her assailants to "satisfy their sexual instincts" that then got out of control, a news agency reported Monday.
The ANSA news agency said the finding was contained in Judge Paolo Micheli's written explanation of his October ruling to convict one of the three suspects in the slaying of Meredith Kercher. In Italy, judges issue explanations of their decisions months after they are handed down.
It was not immediately possible for The Associated Press to obtain a copy of the ruling after business hours.
