In March of 2015, the Supreme Court of Cassation heard the ultimate appeal by Amanda Knox and Raffaele Sollecito. The appeal argued that there was simply no foundation to the case, so the pair couldn’t possibly be guilty of murder.

A five-judge panel acquitted the pair once more, referring to a number of errors which they called “glaring” and “sensational.” They said the prosecutors who won the original murder conviction didn’t prove a whole truth, failing to paint a believable picture of how the two supposedly killed Meredith Kercher. For the second time in her life, Knox, now 26, was cleared of killing her roommate.
