Both courts upheld Amanda's slander against Patrick Lumumba, a totally innocent man, when she tried to pin the murder of her room mate Meredith Kercher on him. She falsely accused him of murder, and nearly ruined his life. This was her boss - the only thing he ever did was be nice enough to give him a job. She served 3 years prison time for that crime.

For that alone, I won't buy her book.

She is scum. Just another american white woman who throws a black man under the bus to elude authorities. She is garbage and of course she is being rewarded for destroying so many lives with a 4 million dollar book deal.

Now really people, don't blame her for it, she did spend 4 years in an italian prison with a warden hot for her tlc.
She was victimized by an overzealous prosecutor who reminds me more of Inspector Cluseau than a true servant of the people.
The justice system there is flawed as ours.

I hope the insane Italian prosecutor has to pay her 10 times that much.

It's really something that anyone would give this girl one penny for her story. She is not a person I would trust with any living thing. To reward her lying, scheming, game-playing and hundreds of other poor choices is beyond vile. If she's so innocent (let's talk OJ), why all the lies, false accusations and confusion on her part? Telling the truth should never confuse you. Want to become a millionaire? Do something terrible and get all the publicity you can...then wait a couple of years...what a sad recipe for disaster.

How sad that Amanda Knox can tell her side of the story and Meredith can't. Just as Casey Anthony's daughter nor OJ Simpson's former wife Niole can't either

She should write about what she knows fantasies, lies, deception, and dishonesty. She will make millions and it only cost one life.

Blood money so a murderer can tell a bunch of BS and make millions.
Who's next - Casey Anthony?
Disgusting.
