The 30-year-old, who spent the guts of a decade fighting a murder conviction in Italy over the death of her then flatmate, made a memorable appearance on last night’s show.
Sollecito had his murder verdict for the killing of Meredith Kercher reinstated last night. American Amanda Knox was also found guilty of murder after the retrial.
A court in Italy is due to announce new appeal verdicts for Knox and her former boyfriend Raffaele Sollecito, who have been accused of killing a British student in 2007.
The 24-year-old Seattle woman is to write about her experience of being tried and convicted of the murder of her British room-mate in Italy in 2007 – and her eventual acquittal.
An Italian appeals court has outlined why it chose to overturn the convictions of Amanda Knox and Raffaele Sollecito – no murder weapon, faulty evidence collecting and no motive.
Knox and her former boyfriend Raffaele Sollecito have been cleared of the murder of British student Meredith Kercher four years ago and are free to go.
US student Amanda Knox and her former boyfriend are appealing their convictions for the murder of Knox’s flatmate Meredith Kercher four years ago in Italy.
The decision is good news for the American student as it means an independent review of DNA evidence — previously ordered by the appeals court and hugely favorable to Knox — will stand.

YESTERDAY, THE CABINET signed off on the plan to provide three €200 energy credits over the next several months.
The plan was announced initially as part of Budget 2023, but there had been some criticism around the measure being universal and not targeted at those who need it most.

This included Sinn Féin, with party leader Mary Lou McDonald saying that payment amounts should have been provided based on income levels.
She proposed giving a higher payment of €500 to those earning €21,000 or less, and €407 to those on less than €40,000.
The first €200 payment is expected to be issued in early November, while the remaining two will be issued in the new year.
With that in mind, we want to know: Do you think the €200 electricity credits should be targeted based on income?
