It was around 7 years ago when Amanda Knox, an Angelic -faced US national studying in Italy, made headlines almost all over the globe. Her then boyfriend, Raffaele Sollecito , allegedly brutally murdered Meredith Kercher. Meredith Kercher was a British foreign exchange student whom Amanda Knox' shared her home in Perugia, Italy. Amanda and Raffaele were convicted and served more than 3 years in prison. They were freed while waiting for the next ruling. While waiting for the decision, which will be made on March 2015, Knox has now returned to her hometown.
Many are now asking and curious, what is Amanda Knox doing in Seattle? Is she living a normal life?
Amanda Knox, as someone who's interested in theater, is now working as a freelance contributor for Westside Weekly, a local newspaper in Seattle. According to AOL, the Westside Weekly publisher Ken Robinson said that she understands who Amanda is, but does not see a big deal having her as a contributor. He has not seen Amanda in person and only communicates via email. It was also mentioned that they have gotten commendations from Amanda's writing. There are about 10 articles made by Amanda for the local newspaper. Amanda, apparently, is trying to live a normal life after being convicted in a different country and while waiting for the next decision to be made.
As the case was evidently widely publicized, there was even a movie which was inspired by this. Expectedly, Amanda's party was not happy about it, most especially about the scenes shown in the trailer.
Amanda has gained haters as well as supporters throughout the duration of the trial. Her supporters, reportedly, even circulated a petition with regard to Meredith Kercher's case.
Definitely, millions of people around the globe, haters and supporters of Amanda Knox, will wait for the decision on March 2015.
