"Amanda Knox's Retrial for Slander Charges Commences in Italy"
Amanda Knox, previously cleared of murdering her roommate in Italy, faces a slander retrial for falsely accusing a bar owner of involvement in the murder. Despite her exoneration, a conviction for slander remains, and she hopes for a not guilty verdict to clear her name. Knox, who was found to have defamed the bar owner during police questioning without legal representation, campaigns for awareness of forced confessions. The retrial, ordered by Italy's Cassation Court, has reignited the legal battle, while the memory of the victim, Meredith Kercher, is overshadowed by the ongoing proceedings.
