Amanda Knox is Back in the News

If you recall in my past post that Amanda Knox and her boyfriend Raffaele Sollecito were accused of killing Amanda's roommate. Amanda was studying abroad in Perugia, Italy when her roommate Meredith Kerscher was brutally murdered in 2007. Amanda and Raffaele were accused of the crime and spent four years in jail. They were both released in 201,  in an appeal, due to not having enough evidence. The Italy Supreme Court overturned Amanda's appeal and wants a new trial.  This would mean that Amanda may have to stand trail again and wouldn't be able sue for wrongful imprisonment. Amanda's parents spent a lot of money to get Amanda freed. Meredith Kercher's parents want answers about their daughter's death. The Kercher family was upset when Amanda and Raffaele were set free and many in Italy believe that they are guilty of the horrific crime.

In America you are innocent until proven guilty and in Italy your guilty until proven innocent.
