Amanda Knox Reconvicted of Slander in Italy
June 5, 2024
Amanda Knox was mobbed by reporters outside a court in Italy. She was wrongfully convicted by an Italian court of brutally murdering her roommate Meredith Kercher. She served four years of a 26-year sentence before an appeals court overturned the conviction. After 16 years, she returned to Italy to face a slander charge related to the case. She was found guilty and was sentenced to three years in prison but since Knox already served longer than that on the murder charge, she was released.
