Knox was appealing a 2024 conviction for falsely accusing her former boss of murdering her roommate, an assertion she made under aggressive police questioning.

An American who was convicted and later acquitted of the 2007 murder of her British housemate, Ms. Knox was found guilty of falsely accusing someone else of the crime.

Amanda Knox, a former American exchange student, had been cleared of all other charges related to the death of her roommate in Italy 17 years ago.
