Knox ‘saddened and frightened by unjust’ guilty verdict

Amanda Knox has said she was frightened and saddened after being found guilty of the murder of British student Meredith Kercher and that “justice was perverted”.

She made the comments after she and Raffaele Sollecito had their previous acquittal overruled by judges in Florence.

It is the third time American Knox, 26, and Italian national Sollecito, 29, have faced trial over the death in Perugia in 2007.
