Amanda Knox was recently freed by Italian courts over the killing of 21-year-old British student Meredith Kercher. It is the latest development in a four-year drama which has gripped three countries. Featuring never-before seen footage from the crime scene, dramatic reconstruction and contributions from leading crime and forensic experts, this programme unravels the case against Amanda Knox and her ex-boyfriend Raffaele Sollecito.
Within days of the death of Meredith the police believed they had uncovered a tale of lust, murder and manipulation in the beautiful Italian town of Perugia. Nicknamed "Foxy Knoxy" by the media, American Amanda Knox was accused of being a she-devil who orchestrated the bloody killing of her flatmate.
The documentary takes an in-depth look at both the evidence that led to Knoxís 2007 conviction and her subsequent acquittal, including an exclusive interview with Patrick Lumumba, who Amanda originally accused of the murder. Dr Roger Summers, a former Director of Forensic Science for the police gives his revealing expert analysis of the forensic investigation, while criminologist David Wilson offers insight into excerpts of Amandaís diary.
The programme also hears from the Knox family about their struggle through these times.
