Amanda Knox
Born (1987-07-09) July 9, 1987 (age 37)
Seattle, Washington, U.S.
Known forBeing convicted, acquitted, and re-convicted of the murder of Meredith Kercher.[1]

Amanda Marie Knox (born July 9, 1987) is an American woman accused of the murder of Meredith Kercher in Perugia, along with Raffaele Sollecito and Rudy Guede. Guede was convicted of the sexual assault and the murder in a separate trial and is currently serving his sentence. Knox and Sollecito were tried together, initially found guilty of the murder, spent almost four years in prison, but then were released by acquittals at a second level trial in October 2011. Knox returned to the US. Sollecito, Knox's boyfriend at the time of the murder, remained in Italy. The prosecution appealed to the Italian Supreme Court, which ordered a third trial.[2][3][4][5][6] The new trial of Knox and Sollecito began in September 2013, with Knox remaining in the US. On January 30, 2014, the court returned guilty verdicts, sentencing her to 28 years in prison.[7] In Italy a guilty verdict in a serious case is not regarded as a definitive conviction until the accused has exhausted the appeals process, irrespective of the number of times the defendant has been put on trial.[8]

Early life

Amanda Knox was raised with two younger sisters. Her mother, Edda Mellas, a maths teacher, and her father, Curt, a vice president of finance at the local Macy's, divorced when Knox was a few years old. Knox grew up in West Seattle, her stepfather, Chris, is an IT consultant. She graduated in 2005 from the Seattle Preparatory School, and began to study linguistics at the University of Washington, making the university's dean's list in early 2007.[9] Relatives later described Knox as not always able to pick up on social cues.[10] Knox had become interested in the culture of Italy while young, and went there on a family holiday when she was 15 years old. She decided to study in Perugia rather than Rome so as to mix with Italians instead of American expatriates. Her stepfather had strong reservations about Knox's going to Italy that year as he felt she was still too naïve.[11]

Meredith Kercher murder case

Main article: Murder of Meredith Kercher

In September 2007,[12] Knox moved to Perugia, Italy, to study Italian, German, and creative writing at the University for Foreigners for one year.[13] She shared a house with Meredith Kercher, a student from England, as well as two Italian women. On 25 October 2007 after going to a concert with Kercher she met and began a romantic relationship with a 23-year old Italian engineering student, Raffaele Sollecito, and began spending her nights at his apartment a short distance away.

In the late morning of November 1, 2007 Knox reported that she had returned to the house in the morning, and found bloodstains in the toilet, a broken window, and that Kercher was not answering her door. Kercher's bedroom door was broken open, her body was found on the floor. She had died of blood loss and suffocation caused by stab wounds to her neck. Interviewed by police, Knox said she had spent the entire night of the murder with Sollecito at his apartment. The alibi was maintained by them except in the interrogation and statements of 5–6 November, during which Knox incriminated herself and Patrick Lumumba, a bar owner she worked for. Knox Solicito and Lumumba were arrested and charged with committing the murder of Meredith Kercher. Lumumba was released after examination of the crime scene identified forensic traces of Rudy Guede on Kercher's body. Guede, Knox and Sollecito were then charged with committing the murder together. On 30 November 2007 a panel of three judges endorsed the charges, ruled there had been no burglary, and ordered Knox and Sollecito held in detention pending a trial.[14]

Pre-trial publicity

Knox became the focus of worldwide media coverage, especially in Italy, the United Kingdom, and the United States. Soon after arriving in prison, she was wrongly told that she was HIV positive, and prompted her to write a list of previous sexual partners, which was leaked to the media.[15][16][17][18][19] Shortly before her trial, Knox had begun legal action against Fiorenza Sarzanini, the author of Amanda e gli altri ("Amanda and the Others"), a best-selling book about her that had been published in Italy. The book included accounts of events as imagined or invented by Sarzanini, witness transcripts not in the public domain, long excerpts from Knox's private journals, which Sarzanini had somehow obtained, and intimate details professing to be about Knox's sex life. [20][21][22][23]

First trial

In 2009 Knox and Sollecito pled not guilty at a Corte d'Assise on charges of sexual assault, murder and simulating a burglary. They requested Guede testify, but he refused.[24] American lawyers were troubled by character evidence about Knox, much of it centered on matters of a sexual nature and heard without the strenuous objections defense attorneys would have made in a US court.[25][26] Found guilty, Knox was sentenced to 26 years imprisonment, and Sollecito to 25 years. The judges' written explanation of their verdict was criticized on the grounds it contained a hypothesis with no basis in the evidence: that the sight of Knox and Sollecito caressing had caused Guede to become sexually aroused and make advances to Kercher which she repulsed; and that Knox and Sollecito had then aided Guede to assault and murder Kercher.[21][27][28]

Support

In late 2008, a number of Seattle-area residents, including lawyer Anne Bremner, founded the "Friends of Amanda", a support group.[17][29] Maria Cantwell, United States Senator for Washington, issued a statement on December 4, 2009, that the evidence against Knox was inadequate.[30] Gregory Hampikian, director of the Idaho Innocence Project, a non-profit investigative organization dedicated to proving the innocence of wrongly convicted people through the use of DNA testing, supported the Knox defense. In May 2011, he said forensic results from the crime scene pointed to Guede being a killer who had acted on his own.[31][32]

Acquittal and release

A Corte d'Assise verdict of guilty is not a definitive conviction. An appeal trial, Corte d'Assise d'Appello, reviews the facts of the case as well as legal aspects. On October 3, 2011 Knox and Sollecito were found not guilty at their appeal trial and released. In an official statement giving their grounds for the acquittals, the judges emphasized that a court ordered independent expert review had discredited DNA evidence key to the prosecution case, while Knox and Sollecito's accounts failing to completely match did not constitute evidence they had given a false alibi. Discounting testimony from a homeless man who said that he had seen Knox and Sollecito out on the night of the murder as self-contradictory, the judges observed the witness was a heroin addict. Having noted that there was no evidence of any phone calls or texts between Knox or Sollecito and Guede, the judges concluded there was a "material non-existence" of evidence to support the guilty verdicts, and that an association among Sollecito, Knox, and Guede to commit the murder was "far from probable".[27][33][34] Knox returned to the US.[35][36] She wrote a letter to Corrado Maria Daclon the day after regaining her freedom:

To hold my hand and offer support and respect throughout the obstacles and the controversy, there were Italians. There was the Italy–USA Foundation, and many others that shared my pain and that helped me survive, with hope. I am eternally grateful for their caring hospitality and their courageous commitment. To those that wrote me, that defended me, that stood by me, that prayed for me... I am forever grateful to you.[37]

In Waiting to be Heard: A Memoir by Amanda Knox, she acknowledged having been naively out of step with Italian cultural expectations of behavior.[38]

Retrial

On March 26, 2013, Italy's highest criminal court set aside the judgement of the trial of the second degree that had acquitted Knox and Sollecito, leading to a re-trial of the appeal.[39] The retrial began on September 30, 2013, Knox remained in the US.[40] On 30 January 2014, Knox and Sollecito were found guilty. Knox was sentenced to 28½ years in prison, Sollecito received 25 years. Knox's lawyer, Luciano Ghirga, stated that she will seek to appeal to the Supreme Court of Italy.[8]

At the appeal trial which acquitted her of murder, Knox was also appealing against her conviction for defamation (calunnia) of Patrick Lumumba, who had been arrested after Knox implicated him and herself while under police interrogation. She was found guilty of calunnia by the appeal trial and the sentence was increased to three years and eleven days imprisonment.[41][42][43] She was ordered to pay restitution to Lumumba and compensate him for legal expenses incurred by being legally represented as an interested party at Knox's trial. Lumumba's lawyer had used vituperative language about her in court.[44][45][46][47][48]

Knox testifying at her trial that she had been slapped by a policewoman during the interrogation led to another calunnia charge against her in June 2010.[49] In February 2011, Knox's parents, Curt Knox and Edda Mellas, were indicted on charges of criminal slander as a result of an interview published by The Sunday Times in 2009, in which they said their daughter "had not been given an interpreter, had not received food and water, and had been physically and verbally abused" by police officers after her arrest.[50] They sought to have the charges dismissed on the grounds that there was no intent.[50][51]

Political reaction

On May 26, 2011, 11 members of the Italian parliament, led by Rocco Girlanda and all members of The People of Freedom Party founded by Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi, issued a document as an act of parliament addressed to Justice Minister Angelino Alfano. The document criticized the evidence that resulted in the Knox/Sollecito guilty verdicts, and the extended detention to which they were subject.[52][53] Girlanda also addressed a letter to President Giorgio Napolitano, in Girlanda's capacity as president of the Italy–USA Foundation, in which he wrote, "These distortions, not without reason, are fuelling accusations against the administration of justice in our country."[54] Some commentators have suggested that the case becoming politicized in Italy has worked to Knox's disadvantage.[55]

Prospect of extradition

Jurists and legal experts have disagreed as to whether Knox, if she exhausts the appeal process and Italy invoked the relevant treaty that exists between the two countries, would be extradited to Italy.[56][57][58] According to legal and political commentator Alan Dershowitz, the US government's requirements for international cooperation in its own extradition requests are likely to outweigh any domestic political considerations, and Knox could be extradited to Italy regardless of American public opinion.[59]

Sean Casey, a former prosecutor who is now a partner at Kobre & Kim in New York, believes that under the extradition treaty between Italy and the US, extradition should not be granted as she was already acquitted for the same acts for which extradition is requested. Furthermore, Casey argues that Italian law enforcement may not seek extradition which would prolong the legal process because the "original verdict was so terribly flawed by prosecutorial overreaching," noting that the appellate court that overturned the original conviction detailed those flaws in a damning report more than 100 pages in length.[60]

Supporters of Knox and certain members of the US media criticized Italian and British newspapers' coverage of the story as constituting character assassination and demonization.[17] The media referred to her as "Foxy Knoxy", a nickname Knox had used on her Myspace page.[17] According to author Candace Dempsey, the press reported a number of falsehoods and distortions in their articles about the case.[71] In order to address these perceived inaccuracies, Knox's family engaged the services of David Marriott of Gogerty Stark Marriott, a Seattle-based public relations firm.[72]

In June 2009, owing to all her televised court hearings, an Italian television poll listed Knox as a bigger personality than Carla Bruni.[73] Barbara Walters named her as one of the ten most fascinating people of 2011.[74] In October 2011, controversial English television presenter Matthew Wright was heavily criticized in the UK media when he asked male viewers of his Channel 5 series The Wright Stuff if they would have sex with Knox now that she had been acquitted.[75] In May 2012, Maxim named Knox in its 'Hot 100' countdown of 2012’s sexiest women.[76]
