Yes, but is it justice?

Oct 4 |18:41

Four years and billions of media bytes later, Amanda Knox and her former boyfriend have been released from prison in Italy. The Seattle exchange student was convicted for the brutal murder of Knox’s room mate. The case made headlines because of the salacious accusations of the prosecution, and the shoddy forensic work of the Italian authorities.

Her case was finally heard again by the Italian courts, and she and her boyfriend have been exonerated.

Amanda Knox is truly an international court starlet, but do you think she really did commit the crime? And was justice really served?
