Amanda Knox

In this episode, Madeleine Spencer is joined by the exonerate, journalist, public speaker, podcast host, and author Amanda Knox.

Between 2007 and 2015 she spent nearly four years in an Italian prison and eight years on trial for murder and every single one of those years was splashed across the front pages of newspapers worldwide - often accompanied by the nickname “foxy knoxy”, which she explains in this episode was merely a soccer nickname from school reporters took to because, well, the world had by this point deemed Amanda foxy, her appearance making her more newsworthy. 

In this episode, Amanda tells her story and also adds the human experience of those traumas such as the challenge to overcome her claustrophobia in prison, what she eventually ate on being released, finding herself opening doors for the first time in years and talks about moments we know from the press, but with her details, her feelings and thoughts throughout.
