Overturned convictions in Italy

Italian politician and statesman (1919–2013)

Amanda Marie Knox is an American author. She came to international prominence after being convicted for the November 2007 murder of her roommate, Meredith Kercher, in Perugia, Italy, a trial that was highly publicized between Knox's conviction in 2009 and her acquittal two years later.

The Monster of Florence is the name coined by the Italian press for a serial killer active within the former province of Florence between 1968 and 1985. The Monster murdered sixteen victims, usually young couples secluded in search of privacy, in wooded areas during new moons. Although none of the murders were committed in the city of Florence proper, the name of the killer, initially referred to as the Maniac of Couples, was chosen due to the murders being committed in the surrounding countryside. After an investigation was launched in the early 1990s by the Florence Prosecutor's Office, several connected persons were convicted for involvement in the murders, yet the exact sequence of events, the identity of the main perpetrator and the motive remain unclear.

Meredith Susanna Cara Kercher was a British student on exchange from the University of Leeds who was murdered at the age of 21 in Perugia, Italy. Kercher was found dead on the floor of her room. By the time the bloodstained fingerprints at the scene were identified as belonging to Rudy Guede, an Ivorian migrant, police had charged Kercher's American roommate, Amanda Knox, and Knox's Italian boyfriend, Raffaele Sollecito. The subsequent prosecutions of Knox and Sollecito received international publicity, with forensic experts and jurists taking a critical view of the evidence supporting the initial guilty verdicts.
