'Foxy Knoxy' Murder Suspect Arrested, YouTube Clip Found



Radar has discovered a YouTube video of the latest suspect to be named in the murder investigation of American Amanda Knox, a Seattle woman suspected in a brutal bloodletting and sexual assault of her British roommate, Meredith Kercher. Police in Perugia, Italy, where the murder occurred, filed an international warrant with Interpol, which recently arrested their fourth suspect in Kercher's murder, Ivory Coast native Rudy Hermann.

Hermann (his name has also been reported as Rudy Hermann Guede) joins the trio of Italian Raffaele Sollecito, Knox, and Congolese bar owner Diya "Patrick" Lumumba in police custody in Italy, where under Italian law they may be held for up to a year. Investigators now allege that Guede raped Kercher, saying that his DNA was found on the murdered girl's body.

A man calling himself Rudy Hermann with an Italian-language profile that resembles the man detained by international authorities can be found on YouTube, and in the lone video posted on his profile, he gives every impression of being, if nothing else, one weird dude.

The only comment on YouTube Rudy's bizarre video is left by ... Rudy Hermann. The comment states "sei un grande negro," or "he's a great black person."
