Picks and Pans Review: The Amanda Knox Case Anatomy of a Trial

>• Is Amanda Knox, now in an Italian prison for the murder of her roommate Meredith Kercher, really guilty? Angel Face author Barbie Nadeau, who covered the case for The Daily Beast, doesn't know-but she's convinced Knox got a fair trial.

WHAT LED TO HER CONVICTION?

The Knox family successfully told the press in the U.S. that there was no forensic evidence. But there was mixed blood, a knife-some pretty damning evidence.

DID HER PARENTS THINK SHE'D BE ACQUITTED?

They were optimistic. Her mother, Edda, had planned a spa day for her back in Seattle.

HOW IS AMANDA DOING NOW?

Her hair is falling out from the stress; she's haunted by insomnia. But she's taking correspondence courses. She's a smart girl. I suspect she'll get out of prison one day and be able to make something of her life.
