Join us for a True Crime Chat in Leeds! In November 2007, British student Meredith Kercher was found murdered in the apartment she shared with Amanda Knox in Perugia, Italy. Knox and her then-boyfriend Raffaele Sollecito were convicted, acquitted on appeal, and later faced further legal proceedings before their acquittals became final in 2015. The case attracted worldwide attention, sparking intense debate about forensic evidence, the investigation and the media's portrayal of Knox.
