Quick Glance: Amanda Knox Faces New Slander Trial in Italy

The upcoming trial in Italy could remove the last legal stain against Amanda Knox, following her acquittal from the murder charge of her British roommate by Italy's highest court eight years ago.

Knox has built a life in the US, working as an advocate, writer, podcaster, and producer, while advocating for criminal justice reform.

Despite the 2015 definitive ruling by Italy's Cassation Court clearing Knox of guilt, doubts about her role linger, especially within Italy.

In her upcoming trial, Knox is expected to testify, although her lawyer mentioned she will not be present in court on the opening day.
