Amanda Knox Found Guilty of Murdering Meredith Kercher
Amanda Knox has been found guilty of the murder and sexual assault of her British flat mate, Meredith Kercher, and sentenced to 26 years in prison (See Video). Her former boyfriend, Raffaele Sollecito, who had met her just a week before the killing, was sentenced to 25 years after being found guilty of the same charges. Amid dramatic scenes in a court in Perugia, Italy, Knox collapsed in tears as the judge read the verdict handed down by the jury. She left the court screaming. The jury ruled that Knox, 22, and Sollecito, 25, killed Miss Kercher, 21, of Coulsdon, Surrey, together with a third man, Rudy Guede, who was convicted in a separate trial last year.
