(Local [Seattle] relevance: The Jesuit school in question is Seattle Prep,
and she was a University of Washington student at the time of the murder.)
'Cellmates of Amanda Knox, the American student suspected of involvement
in the murder of Meredith Kercher in Perugia last November, have pleaded
with prison authorities to stop her repeatedly singing the Beatles' song
Let it Be at the top of her voice.
Father Scarabattoli, the prison chaplain at Perugia, said that Ms Knox,
20, from Seattle, had asked for a guitar so that she could play the song
as well a sing it, but this had been refused. Inmates have complained that
Ms Knox sings the song all day long, with one jailer reported as agreeing
with them that it "drives you mad".
However, Father Scarabattoli said that she sang the song only at exercise
time, in the open air, and he insisted that it had a "spiritual dimension"
since it referred to the intercession of the Virgin Mary. Ms Knox, who
attended a Jesuit school, has been receiving religious instruction from
the chaplain and reading the Bible. '
