Court urged to re-convict Knox

An Italian appeals court has been urged to re-convict Amanda Knox for the murder of British student Meredith Kercher and undo the alleged mistakes of the hearing that freed her.

Prosecutor Alessandro Crini said Italy’s highest court had “razed to the ground” a previous court’s 2011 decision to throw out the guilty verdicts by casting doubt on the logic that freed Knox and co-defendant Raffaele Sollecito.
