Although I agree that he got the Amanda Knox thing right, I don't think it actually counts as a prediction - he wasn't saying whether or not the jury would find her innocent the second time round, and as far as I can tell no new information came out after Eliezer made his call.

As I pointed out in the postmortem, there were at least 3 distinct forms of information that one could update on well after that survey was done.
