In the article from Upfront Magazine,  an Amanda Knox update is written. Amanda Knox is a 26 year old woman who was convicted for the death/murder of her roommate in Italy named Meredith Kercher. Along with Knox's boyfriend named Raffaele Sollecito were imprisoned, and convicted for the second time in 2007. Knox is sentenced to twenty eight and a half years in prison and Sollecito to twenty five years. Amanda Knox is an american student who was staying in Italy when rooming with Meredith Kercher.

In this article, Amanda Know is found guilty for the stabbing death of her roommate. Knox did not return to Italy for the latest trial. Amanda Knox was said to be surprised when heard of the verdict
(guilty. I believe if they have no actual evidence and proof she shouldn't go to prison. Amanda Knox may or may not have murdered her roommate, same for her boyfriend who is said to also be involved wit the killing. "November 1, 2007 will always be a tragic and fascinating question." From this quote, Amanda Knox could (may) not have murdered Meredith.

Amanda Knox went through one of the worst and most scariest experiences anyone could possibly think of while studying abroad. There is some proof and questions which leave most wondering, is Amanda Knox guilty? For example her blood was found in the room, but not finger prints, none. Both parents say that her blood was found in the room, with different reasoning, well which is it? Amanda knox is guilty, but its said that here in the U.S. the verdict would have been different because there wouldn't have been enough proof.

In conclusion, Amanda Knox's verdict is guilty but many disagree here in the U.S. where is said to be  where Amanda Knox is hiding. What really happened that night of the death of Meredith Kercher? The world may never know.
