AMANDA KNOX multi-purposes tell-all book, TV interview and acquittal reversal in no-holds-barred quest for innocence.
Speaking with ABC News‘ Diane Sawyer, Knox, 25, describes her heartache at hearing the Italian court’s ruling after she had already spent 1,400 days – or four years — in prison for the murder of roomie Meredith Kercher.
“I felt like after crawling through a field of barbed wire and finally reaching what I thought was the end, it just turned out that it was the horizon,” Knox told Sawyer. “And I had another field of barbed wire that I had ahead of me to crawl through.”
Kercher, from the UK, and Knox, from the Seattle area, were both exchange students in Peruga, Italy and shared a house when — six weeks later — on November 1, 2007, Meredith was found brutally murdered.
