Amanda Knox says she will 'defend myself yet again' in an Italian courtroom — the same one in which the American was convicted in a retrial of her British roommate's 2007 murder before being exonerated — as a verdict may be reached Wednesday in her related slander trial.
Prosecutors had posited a number of theories to prove their allegation that Knox and her then-boyfriend, Raffaele Sollecito, killed Kercher. Sollecito was also charged and convicted in Kercher's killing and, like Knox, was acquitted on appeal and freed in 2011. The pair's convictions were reinstated in 2014 before they were both officially cleared of the crime the following year.
