amanda knox appeal verdict 2011

This is one of the more sensational court cases of recent years, taking in as it does a photogenic main defendant variously portrayed as a temptress witch or an innocent, faithful woman in love, and a shocking crime incorporating allegations of sex games gone wrong.
