Amanda Knox has been found guilty of slander once again in connection with the murder of her former roommate, Meredith Kercher. This conviction comes after Knox claimed she was coerced by Italian police into falsely accusing bar owner Patrick Lumumba of the crime in 2007.
Knox, who spent nearly four years in an Italian prison before his initial conviction for Kercher's murder was overturned, has continually maintained his innocence. However, the Italian Supreme Court found her guilty of defaming the police during her trial.

The verdict is the latest in a series of legal battles for Knox, whose case has drawn international attention. Supporters argue that Knox is a victim of a flawed justice system, while critics believe he played a role in Kercher's death.
The libel conviction could lead to further legal challenges for Knox, who has been outspoken about her treatment by the Italian legal system, although no further prison time is expected. Knox now faces a fine and possible additional legal consequences.
