On December 4, 2009, Amanda Knox & Raffaele Sollecito were wrongfully convicted for the murder of Meredith Kercher.
On October 3, 2011, Amanda and Raffaele were declared innocent on appeal and were released from prison.
On March 26, 2013, the Italian Supreme Court overturned the acquittals and ordered the case back to the appellate level.
On January 30, 2014, the appeals court in Florence reinstated the guilty verdicts for Amanda and Raffaele. The court released a motivation document on April 29, 2014, explaining the decision.
On March 27, 2015, Amanda and Raffaele were exonerated by the Italian Supreme Court.
For over 7 years, the Italian authorities refused to see what the evidence was telling them. The Knox and Sollecito families had the continued burden of fighting this injustice, and Meredith Kercher's family continued to wonder who killed their daughter, when the answer was clear from the start. All the police had to do in order to stop the circus, was to admit that they had made a mistake. Thankfully, in the end, it was the Italian Supreme Court that would finally set Amanda and Raffaele free. The Supreme Court ruling was final. There will be no more trials.
Rudy Guede murdered Meredith Kercher and he acted alone. Guede was sentenced to 30 years in prison for the murder. His sentence was reduced to 16 years on appeal and later confirmed by the Italian Supreme Court.
Amanda and Raffaele were declared innocent on October 3, 2011. Claudio Pratillo Hellmann was the presiding judge on appeal.
Meredith was a beautiful young woman that deserved the opportunity to enjoy all that life had to offer. On November 1, 2007, that opportunity was stolen from her by Rudy Guede in a senseless act of inhumanity.
