Knox says she thought about killing herself in jail

American Amanda Knox said she considered suicide if her 2007 murder conviction of a British roommate in Italy had not been overturned, according to an advance copy of Knox’s forthcoming memoir.

She also writes that she was smoking marijuana and reading Harry Potter when her British roommate was murdered.

In her memoir, Knox said she “imagined myself a corpse” while in prison and began considering killing herself if her sentence was increased to life in prison from her initial 26-year sentence.
