Amanda Knox became the center of an international media storm after the 2007 murder of Meredith Kercher in Perugia. Despite years of overturned convictions and eventual acquittal, relentless headlines transformed the case into a lasting symbol of trial by media.
Ep 1:
The Stone Villa at Via della Pergola
When Amanda Knox arrives in Perugia for a semester abroad, she never expects a murder investigation, “Foxy Knoxy” headlines, disputed confessions, and controversial DNA evidence to turn the quiet villa at Via della Pergola into the center of a global media storm.
Ep 2:
The Monster & the Media
As tabloids turn Amanda Knox into an international obsession, the 2009 verdict sends her to Capanne Prison while appeals, retrials, and the explosive Conti-Vecchiotti report begin dismantling the prosecution’s DNA case — culminating in Amanda Knox’s emotional final plea and the dramatic 2011 acquittal alongside Raffaele Sollecito.
