Amanda Knox Nets $4 Million Book Deal

Monday, February 20, 2012
Amanda Knox, the US student who was convicted of murdering UK exchange student Meredith Kercher in 2009, has reportedly signed a $4 million book deal.

Knox, 24, dubbed Foxy Knoxy, has been given the book advance to detail her years behind bars in an Italian jail before she was acquitted of the murder charges this past October.

The book is set to detail never-before-told stories of her life in prison.

Knox said she was penning the tell-all book in order to pay back her family who are more than $1million in debt after paying her legal bills.

I don't really care that she has signed a book deal, i mean it was inevitable really considering how high profile the case was. Besides, how else will she raise the money to pay back her parents.
Absolutely disgraceful that she should benefit from murder. How on earth was she found not guilty - there was nothing credible in any of her facial expressions during her trial or interviews after he release. It was absolutely inconceivable that the Italian authorities found her not guilty.
Perhaps it's the people who choose to buy and read the book that deserve the criticism?
Only in America can you profit from a murder.
Totally find this book deal disgraceful and disgusting. This woman should be lucky she was released and that the Italian police are morons. she is guilty and hopefully the truth will come out eventually. To accept this blood money shows how much remorse she has for the victim and her family
